Music video[]
The video is a recording of Lovejoy in a small white room acting out various parts of the song.[1] In all of the recordings, George sits on a white chair with the same expression and pose, only breaking his composure once when Ash tickles his earlobe.
Originally, the band planned to record George putting shaving cream on Wilbur's face while chasing him on a field in Hove. However, they were forced to improvise due to rainy weather.[2]
