4th button!

Sunday morning, Anita left for church early while the boys and I were still getting ready. After we were all dressed and ready to go, I let the boys finish watching their show while I went to check something on the computer.

While I'm sitting in the den, I hear them "singing" a song. Conner, I could hear, was playing his guitar and Zach had his new toy electric guitar out too. The funny thing was that I could hear they were both singing the same thing, but I couldn't make out what it was. After they sang for a bit, they both came running out to the den, and got around in front of the tv and both faced me side by side. I guess they had been rehearsing or something.

Conner made a big show of it, and then asked me if I was ready..... ready for what, I didn't know.

Suddenly they both start singing while Conner plays his guitar and Zach's guitar starts playing some kind of noise.

It's hard at first to figure out what they are singing, then I finally figure it out.

WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN YOU PUSH THE 4TH BUTTON?
WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN YOU PUSH THE 4TH BUTTON?
...
WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN YOU PUSH THE 4TH BUTTON?
WHATCHA GONNA DO WHEN YOU PUSH THE 4TH BUTTON?


I immediately start laughing because it's hilarious, because I have NO idea what they are talking about or where Conner (because I know he came up with it) got this song idea.

When they stop, I ask him what exactly they are saying, to make sure I heard it correctly. He looks at me calmly and says, "Whatcha gonna do when you push the 4th button?"

I just stare at him dumbstruck and reply, "What on earth does that MEAN?"

He walks over to Zachs guitar and reaches down and pushes the 4th button down on the guitar and it starts to play the tune to what they've been singing. He looks up at me and shrugs, "4th button".
