The wrong time period, but I think something off Janelle Monae’s “Dirty
Computer” might be good. “Take A Byte” might work for something themed
around Kelly or Sky-Byte.

“Hobo Humpin’ Slobo Babe,” by Whale (1995) may be wildly inappropriate, but
it somehow seems dead on too.

I think it has to be a little over the top, because RID was a little over
the top. And when I think “over the top” there’s a few things I think of…
Tom Jones and cover songs.

“SexBomb” by Tom Jones is no “What’s New Pussycat?” But it has a fun beat,
and speaks to Sideburn’s personality. 1998 or so, but also timeless because
Tom Jones is something else.

But, it should be something that speaks to you, even if it bends RID in
ways it should not be bent. I might go with Natalie Merchant’s version of
“Which Side Are You On?” even if it means slowing things down, putting it
through a Sepia filter, and going a fake Ken Burns route. It’s probably a
terrible idea, worse than “Hobo Humpin’ Slobo Babe,” but I also think it
would be hysterical.
