Get the Country musicmug. A mysterious, cheerful yet very irritating music. The origins of the music are unknown. Possibly coming from creepy motorhomes but no one is brave enough to get close enough to see. This music plays and is heard an but strange, inappropriate moments. Some have been known to be with a hottie and see fireworks.. others have been known to be a hottie and hear clown music. If you were in an enclosed area with no hottie to distract you, listening to the clown music you would want to tear your fingernails off chew on them.
As he pressed me passionately against the side of my car, off in the distance mysterious clown music could be heard.
