Today in music videos: David Lynch invites you to a surprisingly literal "Crazy Clown Time"

Although “literal” is never a word one would associate with David Lynch, the director’s new video for his “Crazy Clown Time” single—and the only David Lynch-directed video you’re probably going to see for a while—offers a surprisingly literal translation of his song’s lyrics, which we have to admit are plenty hallucinatory on their own. Thus, just as Lynch dictates in his needling falsetto, Paulie does, in fact, wear a red shirt while Suzy rips hers off on cue, instantly rendering this video for an already-disturbing video NSFW, unless you work at a serial killing factory. In which case, you should quit, because serial killing is not the sort of industry that can sustain a factory.
