Bob is a palindrome
September 9, 2008
I just love this Weird Al song.
It’s simply titled Bob and it comes from Al’s 2003 album, Poodle Hat.
The video is styled in the fashion of Bob Dylan’s Subterranean Homesick Blues yet every line of the song is a palindrome, which essentially means that it’s the same forwards or backwards. it really shows that Weird Al Yankovic is a very clever writer.
Check it out and let me know what you think.

First I thought, YEPP, that helps a German dude! All properly written down to read easily along, phew!
Wow. After feeling helpless none-the-less I now know what a palindrome is.
Ow, seesh. You have to excuse me! I just proofed myself by listening to the e-book about my (German) generation, “Generation stupid” (”Generation doof”) - I may be excused, I drove to work by car, hence no “real” book (or am I too stupid to read?)…
Weird song, just great! Can´t turn that around to a palindrome. though…
