Sex offenders have been forced to do a lot of things because of recent laws. This video, titled the Sex Offender Shuffle, makes fun of them and their situations. Some of the best lines come from the one female and the really creepy dude. (Of course, there's more than one of these.)
While the circumstances of their crimes differ, their telling lyrics are all the same: funny.
Implications - This is an incredibly funny video, and definitely quite edgy. It smacks of the kind of found footage you would use to blackmail someone in the 80s, regardless of what the song's content. The outfits, hair, and accessories are the epitome of nightmare 80s attire.
Check the video out for yourself.
