I was folding laundry a bit ago while the boys were watching "Mickey Mouse Clubhouse". I'm not a huge fan of this show. Disney has relied too heavily on CGI in their shows, and cheap animation at that (they're wrecked Winnie the Pooh). But, there is some educational value to it, so I cave. I wasn't really paying attention to the episode, but I could hear it. The characters were going around collecting animals and returning them to the zoo. What class system is in place that lets some animals have houses and cars and other animals live in the zoo? I've often wondered what the difference in pedigree is between Goofy and Pluto, Goofy being a walking talking member of Disney society, and Pluto being, well, Mickey's dog. Anyways, I digress.
The characters were collecting animals. There was an elephant in a tree. These things I know. A few minutes later I hear a very concerning song coming from the next room... "Shake Shake Shake your penis" they sang. Now, the Disney crew, like my children, did a very poor job of enunciating the "t" in the word "Peanuts". Even when I looked and saw Mickey, Donald, and Goofy holding nuts in their big gloved hands, and knowing there was an elephant in a tree, I still swear I couldn't hear the "t". I guess Disney was never free of innuendos.
Now that's a song that is sure to come up in Sunday School.
