Jason Schwartzman and Jimmy Fallon have a catchy new back-to-school song (for nostalgic parents)

Perhaps your children are going back to school tomorrow, or will soon, or have already. You may not want to show them this song from Tux, a 1970s throwback band comprised of Jimmy Fallon and Jason Schwartzman (the latter of whom was born in 1980). The song is innocent and goofy enough that it's safe for young audiences, but it seems aimed more at people who like Wes Anderson soundtracks or remember the Bee Gees and Cat Stevens (when that was his name). And besides, who needs to be nervous about field trips to cemeteries when you already have a new teacher and new classmates to fret about?

If you're not going back to school tomorrow, on the other hand, or don't have kids or like Fallon's musical bits, this is a pretty fun three and a half minutes with silly clothes and strange, indeterminate accents. You can watch below. Peter Weber
