The latest on our list of things that don’t make sense – closely following bus lane cameras and this picture of some beans in a Crocs shoe – is Morrissey’s latest music video.
It’s for his latest single, ‘Spent the Day in Bed’ and when the screen fades from black, we’re left with the image of Joey Barton pushing Moz in a wheelchair.
After a couple of moments of pure confusion, it actually dawns on what you’re seeing. And it’s great.
The pair have reportedly been pals, of sorts, since 2011 when Morrissey invited Barton backstage. The footballer also met the singer in September and posted a picture on his Instagram, presumably when recording the video.
Obviously, the people of Twitter were amused and bewildered after they saw the clip.
Here are a few of the best reactions:
I'm always criticising Joey Barton but he gets to hang out with Morrissey and gets dmed by past EastEnders actors so who wins here?

Still in shock that Joey Barton's in Morrissey's new video. Very weird.

I really wanna see Morrissey bring Joey Barton on tour to wheel him out on to the stage each night.

Joey Barton pushing Morrissey around in a wheelchair. I think somebody has spiked my Penguin.

Is Joey Barton really in the new Morrissey video or have I eaten a load of cheese & fell asleep during Match of the Day again?
