Analysis and Explanation
Originally performed by The Cramps, Muse recorded and released a cover and video of the song that was done as a Halloween special in 2016. It was assumed that it would not be played live considering the cover was mainly done as a joke, but to the surprise of many it was performed at most gigs in 2017. Matt does not do anything when the band perform this song; he leaves the stage and "has time for a tea" according to his Twitter feed, and his pre-recorded voice is played back while Chris and Dom play the song in the form of a drum and bass jam.
The songs live performances were poorly received by the Muse fan base, with many questioning why the band even decided to play it live in the first place. It was dropped at the end of 2017 and it looks very unlikely it will be played live again.
