Music video version
The official version of the video premiered on 15 July 2011 on Fatty Gets s Stylist's VEVO channel.The video opens with the words "ARE YOU READY?" in a 70's disco setting, before Miller-Heidke and Keir Nuttall are shown with papier-mch sculpted heads (featured on the single's artwork, as well as several of the band's promotional photoshoots) in a housing estate, starring as "Miss Fatima" and "Mr. K". The video then proceeds with pre-credits of the children appearing in the video, as well as "Buddy the Dog". "Miss Fatima" and "Mr. K" proceed to skip through the estate, and the children start to follow them, and join in a childish dance. The children's eyes start to glow red, and on the line "The horns!" a marching band come out of the houses, and form a circle around the children, who surround the two teacher characters, and kill them with red lasers shooting out of their eyes.[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kpShFxMQt4&ob=av2n Fatty Gets a Stylist - Are You Ready?]
