Nuclear facepalm.

Cool video, but if I were at that coffee shop with my kid (as one guy appeared to be), I would be pretty pissed.

I hear yah Austin, but it makes me wonder how I missed the cussing while that was on the radio… Heck, missing the censoring while that was on the radio has me wondering.. haha

The dad was probably thinking that his son was either going to hear it live or on the internet, better to get the in person experience.

This is the Chive, not a concerned parent message board.

The guy brings up a legit point … I think the cover is funny and dude has a good point, but if I was there with my kid in the afternoon like that, I'd be a little pissed off. That's just a statement; no one's trying to start something here.

Clint Eastwood already talked about the pussification of Americans. And if you look at the average American male in the world war era and the average American male of today, it is hard to argue against that point.

what???? no way those old bastards could beat me they've gotta be pushing 100 now

There is a pretty serious difference between good parenting and being a pussy. I'm not a father but I can already tell you I wouldn't want my kid listening to this hilarious cover at 7 years old.

Worse shit on spongebob my friend. Pinche gay sponge and seastar fucking all the time. Kid would've eventually heard this on YouTube n e way.

There is plenty worse on spongebob. But we notice it because we are old enough to get the reference. You don't hsve to be very old to realize that there would be an awkward conversation on the subject of the song…. and probably a few "don't tell mom" lines thrown out there.

Big Daddy

like kids need extra stimulation from coffee, pleez
Justin

Stop taking your kid to coffee shops lol

Really? I don't see why. My kid (at 2.5) is perfectly capable of understanding that we don't control what other people say or do & that seeing someone do something does not mean it's alright for him to do the same. It's the same reason he's allowed to play with other people's ill mannered kids – them acting like little shitheads doesn't mean he can & he knows it.

who hangs out in coffee shops with their kid, anyway? lame

Shazam!!

Fan-fucking-tastic!!!

He's got a good voice…"till sweat drip down my balls" never sounded so beautiful

When a kid is there, this is a very un-cool thing to do. What a douche.

Shut up, you're just jealous you can't sing or play guitar, if you don't like it get off the chive
Joel

Yeah no 12 year old has ever heard "skeet" or "mother-fucker" before.
Yesh

Yep, jerk move for sure!

Grant

you know deep down that kid was loving that song but because his dad was there he was pretending not to listen. I would be angry too but to be frank the kid is going to see much much worse in his life than a song that he can listen to for free on the internet.

emu90

pretty sure the dad was trying his hardest to hide his enjoyment in front of his kid too

Emily

That was awesome! I like the guy sitting behind him trying to compose himself throughout the song.

GuntherSquirrel

Dude has a good voice and some genuine talent… Too bad hes singing crap

Why you taking your kid to a coffee shop? That's why they build Chucky Cheeses.

Beyond Made My Day…. Showed this to my entire office…

Chicks dig dudes with guitars. Doesn't matter what the song is.

I'm a fan!
gclark

That was funny, as for all the concerned parents…. really? Kids throw worse language around all the time. You can attempt to shelter your kid from words, and lyrics and all that, but its just a matter of time before they hear it.
AHL

How are there any negative comments here? He took the most vile, raunchy lyrics and made a beautiful song out of them. This kid is brilliant. Hiliarious!!!
