Prompt: "The song that plays over the end credits of the 2024 remake of Dr. Strangelove"

Never seen the movie, ain't that some shit? I don't really fuck with movies made before 1979, because most, if not all, of those movies are bad. I don't read every one of Joe's movie blogs, but I can only assume he agrees with me. Anyway, this is a satire, this film, so I am told by Wikipedia and general cultural osmosis, so here's a song that it also a satire of sorts, in that it is sort of funny without actually making you laugh. I recently read the novel The Sellout, which is another satire, but it actually made me laugh out loud. As with all satire, I am not certain I "got it" (this is because I am very stupid, ask anyone), but I recommend that book wholeheartedly for anyone who wants a fun time with race in America. But back to Dr. Strangelove, wake me up when they do a remake with Austin Butler and that chesty broad from the HBO show.

Cheekface remains some of the worst, lamest music that this blog has ever regularly featured.
This specific blogpost compels me to admit two things: Describing satire as something thats funny but doesn't make me laugh is absolutely perfect, and I also am absolutely terrible at detecting satire because I'm also a dumb guy.
