Lorde’s song “Royals” has become the latest subject of parody for Weird Al Yankovic.

The parody singer has reworked the lyrics of the song to sing about the merits of “Foil”, singing how it can keep your food fresh as well as protect you from spies.

Thomas Lennon and Patton Oswalt make cameo appearances in the video along side Yankovic.

The song marks the third to be taken from Yankovic’s upcoming album “Mandatory Fun”, following parodies of Robin Thicke’s “Blurred Lines” and Pharrell’s “Happy”.

Weird Al's lyrics seem somewhat genius as he sings his own take of the hit song.

He starts the song with entrance lyrics-

I never seem to finish all my food

I always get a doggie bag from the waiter

So I just keep what’s still unchewed

And I take it home, save it for later.

When you are ready to hear 'And we'll never be royals (Royals)', Al replaces -

With aluminum foil (foil)

Never settle for less

That kind of wrap is just the best

To keep your sandwich nice and fresh

Stick it in your cooler (cooler)
