OK, so it's not a "cover", per se, but the myriad TV show titles that serve as lyrics certainly seem reminiscent of the 1982 goofcore anthem. Hats off to Dilla for at least making it a bit more danceable this time around.
Here's YouTube of Black Flag's "TV Party" video. Somehow, it's a four minute song that seems to go on for an eternity. Can someone remind me exactly what is it that I liked about this when I was 13?

come on, man... are you searching for an apology? you liked it 'cause it wasn't what everyone else in your jr. high was listening too in nineteen eighty-whatever. just like me. i'd say the dick's kill from the heart was more what i was feeling during those formative years but any song with shout-outs to shows i watched during weekend sleepovers @ gram's was gonna be a fav.
ps - thanks for the dilla. i turned a contractor onto donuts while he was here helping me replace some kitchen floor tile.
