Remainder of @alyankovic.bsky.social interview, Muppet Magazine, 1984. I guess @katydobbs.bsky.social had something to do with this too? Maybe she helped Fozzie Bear transcribe the interview.
2 page spread of interview with Weird Al Yankovix by Fozzie Bear 9Muppet Magazine 1984). Left page features lyrics to Eat It and Rocky Road. Right page: The accordion is going to completely take over the rock in roll world." "No," Weird Al told me, was pretty normal. I was a good student. But at night, at home, I wrote song parodies.

But, if you're playing the guitar, if you're playing the drums, if you're playing the ukelele, stop right now! The accordion is going to completely take over the rock 'n' roll world. It's the wave of the future. The sound of the eighties! In fact, I've declared the accordion the Official Instrument of the 1984 Olympics!" Now, everyone knows I write my own jokes.
