"Weird Al" Yankovic is back, and he'd like you to know it's not okay to be tacky.

With his signature wit and curls, Yankovic takes on Pharrell Williams' annoyingly infectious hit "Happy" by replacing its jovial lyrics with ones far more scathing. Instead of a song about having a positive attitude, it's a litmus test to see if you are, in fact, tacky. Bad news: You probably are.

Jack Black, Aisha Tyler, Margaret Cho, Kristen Schaal and Eric Stonestreet were all on hand to help out, lip-syncing Yankovic's words while wearing grotesquely tacky ensembles.

Yankovic's new album, Madatory Fun, comes out July 15.
