What is said

00:00:00 — Pink eye; the guide's photographs of the abandoned Detroit theatre

• ★★ John has an eye complaint (pink eye in the song) and assumes Hank would rather not look at his eye for the whole video. (playful) — 00:00:03
• ★★ John shows photographs the guide shot inside the abandoned Detroit theatre, which he says show the inside better than his video did, and thanks the guide at snweb.org. — 00:00:03

00:00:33 — Song: 'Put stuff on your head' as the remedy for a bad day with pink eye; 'What's on your head, Hank?'; sign-off

• ★★ John says the simple answer to a long bad day, with a weepy eye and people looking at you funny, is to put stuff on your head. (playful) (hedged) — 00:00:33
• ★★ John sings that when you're sad with pink eye and suck levels are high, you gotta put stuff on your head; the colour doesn't matter, but don't use a plastic bag. (playful) — 00:00:55 · Stuff on Heads, world suck > «You gotta put stuff on your head»
• ★ John ends by asking Hank what is on his head. (playful) — 00:01:24 · Hank Green

Humor (dominant)

• The song's only safety instruction for putting stuff on your head. — 00:01:24 > «The only rule of thumb is don't use a plastic bag.»
• The song lists things to attach to your head. — 00:01:24 > «Or affix a Christmas stocking to your cerebellum.»
