On May 24, 1989, Yankovic started recording the second parody for the album, "Spam". The song, a play on R.E.M.'s hit "Stand", is an ode to the canned luncheon meat Spam. Yankovic noted that it was "fun to pick the song and figure out some of those almost subliminal parts—parts that would fade in and out, little bell sounds, things you don't really hear on first listening." On May 25, 1989, Yankovic recorded "Isle Thing", a parody of "Wild Thing" by Tone Lōc, about a woman who introduces the narrator to the television show "Gilligan's Island". Notably, the song is Yankovic's first rap parody; an earlier rap, "Twister", is a Beastie Boys style spoof, but not a direct parody. Another Tone Lōc hit, "Funky Cold Medina", is referenced in the lyrics: "Ginger and Mary Ann coulda used some funky cold medina". The final parody, "She Drives Like Crazy"—recorded the same day as "Isle Thing"—is a spoof of Fine Young Cannibals' 1988 single "She Drives Me Crazy". Lyrically, the song is about a man who fears his girlfriend's crazy driving habits.
