This is probably the only animated film/cartoon where the racism part is not bad in the sense that here it is historically portraying how people viewed each other back thing. In contrast to say Peter Pan and the infamous "why is the redman red" where the whole portrayal is a bit racy. Here the English and Native Americans are not portrayed as satires nor include any derogatory themes, it is only in the reactions between the people and their interpretation of one another which is historical.
According to IMDB, In the song "Savages", some lyrics where changed as they were viewed as inappropriate:
1) "What can you expect/ from filthy little heathens?/ Their whole disgusting race is like a curse!" --> "What can you expect/ from filthy little heathens?/ Here's what you get when the races are diverse!
2) "Let's go kill a few, men!" --> "Let's go get a few men!"
3) "Dirty redskin devils, now we sound the drums of war!" --> "Dirty shrieking devils, now we sound the drums of war!"
The original lyrics, which can be found on early soundtrack CDs, run "Their whole disgusting race is like a curse," and "dirty red-skinned devils."

Yeah, "Savages" is totally meant to be morally damning. The first hint is the fact that the film's villain is singing most of it. XD

@poptartdom It's just a mild gay joke, it's only funny if you're extremely immature. Which I am.
