Over a synthesized beat, a fake-Perry sings about being “hairy” and “scary,” while a voiceover from her Super Bowl halftime show guest, Lenny Kravitz, promotes T-Mobile.
Perry even gives pointers as to how to play the game. “Don’t have to dribble, you pass the ball/ You run the ball, you go to the end zone/ To score the points,” the song instructs.
The parody ends with a cut of Kravitz talking about pollution and how people of the world still don’t get along.
Tim Heidecker first posted the song on YouTube before Perry got in the game and tweeted it herself. Heidecker is one half of the comedic team “Tim & Eric,” the creators of Adult Swim shows “Tom Goes to the Mayor” and “Tim & Eric’s Bedtime Stories.”
Super Bowl XLIX kicks off at 3.30 p.m. PT/6.30 p.m. ET on NBC.
