Weird Al’s The Saga Begins was released in 1999 on the album Running with Scissors. This song is a parody of Don McLean’s song American Pie.

Weird Al’s Jurassic Park song comes from the 1993 album Alapalooza. This song is a parody of the the classic Jimmy Webb song MacArthur Park.

Amish Paradise is Weird Al’s take on Coolio’s Gangsta’s Paradise. It was featured on Weird Al’s 1996 album Bad Hair Day.

Albuquerque isn’t really a parody of a specific song, it’s a hard-rock rock narrative in the style of artists like George Thorogood and his ilk. Albuquerque was off of his album Running with Scissors that came out in 1999.

Weird Al’s Why Does This Always Happen to Me? comes from his 2003 album Poodle Hat. Much like Albuquerque this song isn’t really a parody of a specific song, but more of a parody of Ben Folds and those musicians like him.

The Weird Al song Bedrock Anthem is a parody of two Red Hot Chili Peppers songs, Under the Bridge and Give it Away. This song comes from the 1993 album Alapalooza.

Weird Al’s classic Eat It came from his 1984 album “Weird Al” Yankovic in 3-D. This song is a parody of the Michael Jackson song Beat It. Once again the original creator of the song was very amused with Weird Al’s take on his song.
