"On The Square" appears on DeMarco's forthcoming new album Here Comes the Cowboy, out this Friday.
Directed by William Sipos and Sean Campos, the visual explores DeMarco's fascination for facial prosthetics --which was already seen in the music video for "Nobody".
The singer, who wears an elegant tuxedo, is seen plunging into a milk birdbath. Transported into a purgatory-like white space, he encounters himself as various animals -- including a pig, a cat and the fictional monstrosity Cthulhu.

"All is well/ Live a life that isn't there/ Sweat it up/ Call me once you've had enough," croons DeMarco in the chorus.
"On The Square" is featured on DeMarco's forthcoming new LP Here Comes the Cowboy, along with the previously released "All of Our Yesterdays" and "Nobody". The record will follow his 2017 This Old Dog --marking the singer-songwriter's fourth studio album.
Here Comes the Cowboy will be released on May 10 via DeMarco's Record Label.
