Music video[]

The official music video for the song was uploaded to YouTube on 6 April 2014. It was produced by Made In Katana. It depicts a man, played by Crawford, meditating in the bath when his roommate accidentally knocks a hair dryer into the bath, electrocuting him. At the funeral, the guests sing along to the chorus, as does Crawford while in the coffin. In the woods, the Thundamentals play the grave diggers and bury his coffin. After his burial, a lightning strike brings him back to life, only for Jeswon to smash him over the head with a shovel, killing him again. As of 31 July 2016 the video has over 736,100 views.
