Soon-to-be former British Prime Minister David Cameron doesn't seem too sad to see himself go. Just seconds after announcing that his resignation would be effective Wednesday, when Home Secretary Theresa May will take over as Britain's next prime minister, Cameron was caught humming a little ditty. And it certainly wasn't a sad, slow song either.

Seemingly unaware that his microphone was still on, Cameron could be heard humming what some say sounded like the end of The West Wing's theme song before he walked back inside his Downing Street residence. Take a listen. Becca Stanek
