WongDoody takes insufferable little-kids-and-animals cuteness to a whole new level with this world-beat promo clip for an upcoming meerkat exhibit at Seattle's Woodland Park Zoo. The annoyingly infectious jingle, "Do the Meerkute," features lyrics like, "Meerkats are fuzzy, with long pointed tails/They like to snack on scorpions, lizards, snakes and snails/Open your teeth and make a crunch/You just ate a scorpion lunch/Ewww!" The song was written by Chris Ballew of the Presidents of the United States of America, whose next career stop will be scoring a Butterfinger spot.
