"The Stunts Song" (unofficial name) is a song that has evolved during the three WSM's. It began in August 2004, when Dinmor, Zak McKracken, Akoss Poo and Bonzai Joe were waiting in a train in Budapest around midnight. Dinmor was eating an Alpenmilch Ritter Sport, but when Akoss tried to taste some of it, it was melting and looked slightly like shit. Akoss then sang "shitty shitty, shitty Alpenmilch" to the melody of "Venus In Furs" by Velvet Underground - a song which Dinmor had been whistling earlier that day. Slightly later, Akoss invented the next verse of the song, which went "chili chili, chili beans in pina" ("pina" is a Hungarian word for pussy). This was sung a lot during the 2004 meeting. In 2005, the song exploded into several new variations, JTK had brought his guitar to Århus, and together with Bonzai Joe's piano, this functioned sometimes as accompaniment to what had by then become the Stunts song, or at least the WSM song. The chords had been worked out (they are simply C minor and B flat, although in the original "Venus In Furs" they are different).Heaps of new verses were made, the most famous being: "fisse fotze, foufoune pina pizda" and "Diesel Diesel, Diesel Joe's still drinking". The first referring to what was on Akoss and Krys's minds, and the second referring to Diesel Joe's seemingly infinite liver.

The most famous verse still remains: "chili chili, chili beans in pina".
