Maybe there's astronauts, maybe there's aliens

My [six-year-old] kid wrote a song called, “I Wonder What’s Inside your Butthole” Quite honestly, it slaps. Twitter | Threadreader (Be sure to check out the remixes)
In seriousness (ish) though: the first thing I think when I see this videos is, when this girl goes to her first college interview/job interview/whatever, this is what they're going to find. And then I realize that by then every single adult will have been a baby/toddler/child when parents put everything on the internet, so something this innocuous wouldn't even be a blip on HR's radar.

A 2032 when this is a liability is not a 2032 I want to live in.

Well, maybe she'll find the cure for cancer next year and then hopefully that will be her first google result.

(That said, the song truly slaps and I second selfmedicating's post.)

"Things Found Inside A Butthole" was always my favorite category on the $25,000 Pyramid, especially when Nipsey Russell would wax eloquently about it.

Close your eyes and you can hear elements of Courtney Love in the chorus.

Speaking of astronauts, in the latest installment of the history of the Seattle Mariners on SB Nation, Jon Bois coins this line:
"Like an astronaut who brought his wallet"
I've been thinking about the meaning of this line for days. I.E., I am exactly the right intellect to enjoy a song about buttholes.

By then, hopefully she'll have found a way to put this video down the memory hole ...

Throughout the ages, songwriters have found many ways to pose the immortal musical question: What what, in the butt?

Yes yes yes, she believes in this. Without actually wanting to know the answer, I'm completely here for the question.
Thanks butthole music fun!

This song does slap! It's catchy as hell and it has a cool little syncopated rhythm to it. And the way she sings the words is super rock and roll. Yeahhh little kid!
