I was saying "Boo-urns."

Poor Hans Moleman. Things are never easy for Springfield’s most unfortunate resident (see: an ether-soaked Mr. Burns drilling into Hans’ brain in search of Lucky Charms), but now the beloved Simpsons character has an anthem that sings his praises.

Rapper MC Lars has crafted a sweethearted tribute titled “The Ballad of Hans Moleman” complete with an accompanying music video that premiered today over at The AV Club. Hans’ resiliency is championed and his legendary exploits are touched on as incredible feats.

“Moleman! Hans Moleman! You can’t keep Hans Moleman down!” goes the hook that will now be glued into your head for hours.

Raise a toast to the auteur that gave us “Man Getting Hit By Football” and let his strong spirit guide you to a better tomorrow.
