I wonder what's this red button do? is the sixteenth line and the fourth line of the fourth verse in the original music video.

Characterization[]

Main article: Ninny
Brazen

This line is characterized by an amber peanut-shaped bean, with a chin and eyebrows, named Ninny.

In the video[]

Ninny appears near a red button wondering what it does. He pushes it, and then gets blown up (offscreen) by a nuclear explosion.

He is a Standard Dancer.

Game[]

Red Button Bonanza[]

The player must do nothing (such as tapping anywhere) and wait until the timer runs out. If the player wins, a rainbow appear and if they lose, the nuclear explosion occurs.

Button Blast[]

There is another minigame based on this line where the player must remember and continue a pattern shown on a clipboard in Ninny's hand. This time, rather than one button, there are six, each containing a certain shape. The player must press all the buttons containing the shapes on the clipboard. If the player succeeds, fireworks will explode in the sky. If the player does it incorrectly (either pressing the incorrect button or doing nothing), the nuclear explosion occurs.

Much Abrew[]

There is a Halloween game where the player again has to memorize a pattern but drop the correct potions into the cauldron. If the correct potions are put in the correct order, Ninny will drink the resulting liquid and turn into a werewolf. If the player does it incorrectly (either dropping in the incorrect potion or doing nothing), the nuclear explosion occurs.
