The music video was uploaded to the UPROXX official YouTube channel on 19 January 2017. The video has Clementine singing in a gold-played elevator, and features a cameo from Gorillaz lead singer 2D, who appears in puppet form at various points through the song.[6] Various video clips, including from Animal Farm, Fantastic Planet, Village of the Damned, a spaghetti western starring Clint Eastwood, CCTV footage of an evil clown, documentary footage of tribal dancers, and a procession wearing white capirotes, are projected behind Clementine. The video ends abruptly with a clip from the episode "Karate Choppers" of the TV series SpongeBob SquarePants,[7] although this is not present on the album version.
