Tim Heidecker Has Written a Beautiful Folk Song About the Horrors of 4Chan

BY Josiah HughesPublished May 12, 2017

Endlessly prolific comedy great Tim Heidecker always has a ridiculous amount of projects on the go, but he always makes time to troll far-right baddies with beautiful folk songs. He's released a full EP's worth of Trump songs, but now the man behind America's best spy TV show has gone a step further with a song about 4Chan.

Yes, Heidecker has gone straight to the source, addressing the swirling cesspool that is the internet's most notorious message board. While it's certainly a hilarious song, it's hard to know if "For Chan" will sit well with the vengeful nerds that spend their days on the site.

On "For Chan," Heidecker plays the role of a 4Chan commenter, complete with some grotesque digs: "If they made a movie of me / They'd have to cast the fattest actor / With glycerine they'd splatter all over my face / And grease me down."

Listen to "For Chan" below.

UPDATE (05/12, 12:30 p.m. EDT): Turns out Heidecker has another new song, too. "Cooked Chinese Chicken (Is Coming Our Way)" is an amazingly dark piano ballad that can also be streamed below.
