"Dare to be Stupid" is the title tune from Yankovic's 1985 album, and gave the Cootie toys more exposure than they'd had in years before or since. Oh, yeah, the parade of Mr. Potato Heads at the end of the clip is pretty cool, too, years before "Toy Story" restored the product to cultural icon status.
Al & the band are parodying Devo here, specifically with the yellow outfits that Mark Mothersbaugh and his boys wore in a video for their cover of the Rolling Stones' "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction".

Weird Al, where's he been lately?
Last album came out a year or two ago. Too bad Empty-V won't play videos anymore.....
