Weird Al Yankovic revealed in an interview with Larry King on Monday's episode of Larry King Now that his new album "Mandatory Fun" will most likely be his final album.

When discussing "Mandatory Fun," Al explained to King, "It's probably the last album for me, from now on I am going to be releasing singles...I think that's the way for me to be timely."

During the interview, Al explained how he chooses the right song to parody, hinted at his upcoming plans for Broadway. "It's kind of on a whim. I look for songs who have a unique musical or lyrical hook, something that really jumps out at you when you hear it on the radio and it really boils down to whether or not I can come up with a clever enough idea for it," he said.

When Larry asks if Al ever saw himself leaving the musical world Al responded: "I've gotten some offers to do some writing for some possible Broadway musicals. There's different things I can do with my kind of sensibility and do the same type of comedy but branch out."
