Hi all,
Could this be an idiom meaning 'being excited' or something? If so, is that a common usage among friends?
Thank you a lot!
I've never heard anything like it. Where did it come from? Context? As always, that's very important and we might at least be able to work out what it was supposed to mean. But is it an idiom? No. Not in BrE at least.

A Google search seems to indicate it's "bats flying out my arse". This seems much easier to interpret, but I'll leave it to someone more confident.Oops! That was 'surprised'! Sorry!
Susan: 'Give Nick a job and you'll be surprised!'
Ben: 'Oh yes! I'll be surprised, I'll be surprised! There'll be bats flying up my arse!' (Said sarcastically)
