My child won't stop singing the "Lava Chicken" song from the Minecraft movie. How do I go on living?

Ok Lemmings look, I love life and I love my family, so I’d hate to have to blow my fucking brains out. So what’s another strategy for tuning out this incessant lava chicken? Alternatively, does anyone have a time machine and enough money to convince Jack Black to not do the Minecraft movie?

I don’t wanna sound old here, but I finally watched that thing a couple days ago and boy did I feel my age there. Clearly I’ve lived long enough that a whole movie failed to connect with me on any level. I mean it has Jack Black in it and I adore him. I guess what I’m saying is I have no idea how to fix your kid because they’re a different people now.

However , the classic old group defense against young slang is taking it up and enthusiastically using it wrong. So enjoy your hot poultry song.

I played Minecraft as a teenager when it was in Beta (you can do the math for my rough age based on that) and I took my kids to see it as a fun family outing. It was a fun kids movie, and it was wild hearing the Minecraft soundtrack in the theatre lobby, but honestly while I’m glad I saw it in the theatre, it wasn’t anything I’d go out of my way to see again. My kids however have watched it multiple times since it’s hit streaming
