Melanie (song)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Melanie is a song performed by "Weird Al" Yankovic in which the lyricist stalks a girl named Melanie who "lived across the street on the fifteenth floor of the Gilmore building". By the end of the song, he commits suicide by jumping from a sixteenth story window above her.

How he stalked her:

  • Viewed her through a telescope
  • Made several phone calls
  • Gave a mohawk to her cat
  • Went through her garbage
  • Tattooed her name across his forehead
