Weird Al is making a parody out of Amish people and their way of living. Weird Al and the filmmakers are trying to create a funny mood while recreating similar shots from the original music video. To create this Parody, Weird Al has altered the lyrics to match the Amish theme, and he uses costumes, set design, and also matches the action on screen with the lyrics. He pokes fun of their practices such as churning butter, and what they do in their daily life. He also exaggerates how they feel about modern technology, having them stomp on phones and computers, adding to the humor of the parody.
