A Wierd Al
When someone expresses their views and thoughts to the public to the tune of a popular hit tune, with different lyrics.
Here is an example of a wierd Al tune.
Dedicated to my ''friends'' in the music and entertainment industry:
(sung sarcastically to the tune of Abba’s thank you for the music, with a punk rock backing)
Thank you for the madness, the turmoil you’ve been bringing,
Thanks for all the nightmares and singing,
Who can live in this world I ask in all honesty,
What would life be,
Without a home or a job what can I be,
So I say thank you for the madness, for giving it to me.
-Written by ‘Weird’ Al Yankovich

Weird Al
Short for "Weird Al Yankovic".
A living legend that has made his name in spotlights for creating clever parodies of other hit songs. He even starred in one movie called UHF, which was highly underappreciated then, but now it's a cult classic. Overall, Weird Al is better off in music than in movies, despite how funny UHF was.

Weird Al
Full Name: Weird Al Yankovich.
Funny guy who writes great lyrics usually as parodies of infectious hit songs. A common misconception is that Weird Al writes lyrics to make fun of other artists, but that simply is not true. He always gets permission from the artists before he publishes his parodies. The one time an artist complained about a parody that Weird Al wrote, it turned out to be communication error. Sometimes artists will even approach him to do parodies of their songs.
Some musicians have noted that in order for one to know if they have really "made it" in the music business is to have one of your songs parodied by Al!
Although his lyrics are funny, often VERY funny, Weird Al doesn't have the best voice, nor is he the best entertainer. In fact many find that his vocals and accordian accompaniments are very annoying.

I THOUGHT I was getting tired of Achy-Breaky Heart until Weird Al did a parody of it. Now I KNOW I'm sick of it, AND the parody.

Boffin
British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”
Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
