Bottom Biting Bug

There's a new hit song in Japan called "Oshiri Kajiri Mushi" (or in English, "Bottom Biting Bug"). It's a kids' song with silly lyrics about a bug that bites peoples bottoms... and something about how city bottoms are bitter. This weekend the song climbed number 8 on the Japanese charts.
The vocal performance sounds like a Japanese version of Alvin & the Chipmunks, or maybe Barnes & Barnes, whose legendary "Fish heads" song still sounds as weird today as it did when it was recorded. "Biting is important business" indeed.
See for yourself:



And for those of you that feel the need to sing aling, here are the lyrics:
