** All three of his Music/MichaelJackson parodies, "Eat It", "Fat", and "Snack All Night" (based on [[Music/{{Thriller}} "Beat It"]], "Music/{{Bad}}", and [[Music/{{Dangerous}} "Black or White"]], respectively), are odes to gluttony. Yankovic limited the third one to live shows and never released a studio version at the request of Jackson, who didn't want to risk undermining the original's anti-racism message. "Fat" is mostly about the narrator being FatAndProud, but the lyrics leave no doubt about how he got that way.
