That song's called Fred 
 
This song here was written under the influence of alcohol 
which has a tendency to make you think things are funnier 
than what they really are.  Had you been drinkin' alcohol at the time of 
hearing a Fred song, you'd be laying on the floor right now saying that 
'Fred' song's whipping my ass.  Turn it off.
