TORONTO — Another day, another Weird Al parody video.

On Wednesday, Weird Al Yankovic took the wraps off the third video for a song on his new album, Mandatory Fun.

In “Foil” — a spoof of Lorde’s ubiquitous “Royals” — Yankovic plays a TV cooking show host obsessed with keeping food fresh.

“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,” he sings at the beginning of the song.
