Corona’s not funny if you get it. So no, it’s really not funny at all.
Good for him.
It wouldn’t be funny, and Al is too cool a guy to do something as crass as that, and besides that he’s already done Ayatollah, back in the 80’s. One of his first hits, IIRC.
“Eat It”.
Early web vid erroneously attributed to Weird Al but was done by John Mammoser.

Funny—the idea of a song with that title did cross my mind the other day.
“Ooh, my little sickly one
Sickly one
Looks like you’ve contracted some of
MY CORONA
Ooh, your life will soon be done
Soon be done
When you kick the bucket from
MY CORONA”
Thats funny right there...Nothin like a little sick humor to take off the edge.
Gallow’s humor...it happens. It’s a human response. It’s not like when people cheered over Thatcher’s death.
Ah yes, I stand corrected. Quite many brain cells since what, 1981?
Want some Lyme (disease) with that Corona?
Neither are Hernias or bad surgeons, but Al Yankovic made really funny songs about those.
Gotta have a sense of humor, even if you get the hernia.
Hernia's don't cause loved ones to suddenly die. CV does. Big difference in the funny there. What may be funny for us could really hurt someone already suffering a loss.
I'm sure that's why AY said, no thanks on the song.
He actually did a very good original one in the style of Nine Inch Nails in the late 90’s called “Germs”, which is very good, if out of his usual character.
