You can't watch potatoes grow, because potatoes grow so slowly, you can't even SEE them grow.

Of course you haven't! That's because telephones haven't even been around that long! At the time this song came out (1996), telephones had only been around for 120 years, since they were invented by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876. So this lyric can't possibly make any sense until the year 2176, at the absolute earliest.

People's faces don't literally turn blue.

There most certainly is!

Drivers don't watch TV while they're driving, they should pay attention to the roads.

Let this be a lesson to always tip your waiters handsomely.

Too late, you just did. (Unless he considers both commands of "Eat it!" as a single entity...but still, he clearly repeats the phrase by uttering it twice in succession.)

This line has always boggled my mind. How is it possible for a shadow to weigh anything? A shadow is simply a rough image cast by an object blocking rays of illumination; so it can't really have a weight.

If Al's neighbor got the last titular appliance that was in stock, how could Al get one for himself if they're all out of stock?

I suppose I could have put this in the "Funniest" lyrics section, since the meaning of the title is discovered after he stops repeating it so many times at the beginning of the song. But I am putting it here because of his use of the word "gotta". "Gotta" technically means "got to", not "got a"; furthermore, it's not even any shorter to say "gotta" in lieu of "Got a". I know it's common for "to" to be unemphasized (hence the neologisms "wanna" and "gotta") to the point where it sounds more like "a" (the word, not the letter), but it doesn't make "got a" any shorter to write it like that.

'The Price Is Right' only airs on weekdays. And I'm pretty sure it did even at the time this song was made.

Who'd want to spend the rest of their lives staying locked up in a freezer? I know I wouldn't.

How can you sue someone after you die? Second, why did you swallow it in the first place?

Nobody's butts are made of Jell-O.

All I can say to that is 'ouch!'

And what, exactly, does this accomplish? Does Weird Al want the listener to *eat* the television set? Appliances are not edible!

No you did not.

NOTE: If a song came out after 2009, Please DO NOT USE 2000S. That is tantamount to lumping the 2000s and 2010s together (as well as subsequent decades), which is not appropriate. You can use 'country' for 2010s and 'xmas' for 2020s.
