The 600 year old chant tattooed to the butt of a lost soul in Netherlandish painter Heironymous Bosch has been played for the first time (hopefully not unleashing a hellhole of fury or a plague of butt boils on the world).

The ditty, transcribed in the key of C by an eager college student, also got some fancy new lyrics thanks to the internet.

butt song from hell

this is the butt song from hell

we sing from our asses while burning in purgatory

the butt song from hell

the butt song from hell

butt

You can listen to the tattooed butt song here.

Or look at the butt song tuches in context of the larger painting (it doesn’t get any less weird).
