  • The only thing I dislike about this video is having to wait to get home to watch it. What's the point of disabling mobile playback?

  • You know...they never seace to amaze me how they take real matters so kids can understand them- use silly themes or ideas in place of the story... and actually MAKE IT WORK!

    I mean really, I don't feel a bit embarassed by watching this....:)

  • This is a song about idolatry...

    disguised as a song about corporate consumerism...

    disguised as a song about eating too much candy.

    epic meta.

  • does he love bunnies or what? Stupid!

  • *Censored Version* The ___y, the ____y. Whoa I love the ___y! I don't love my mom or ma dad just the ___y! XD!

  • This never helped me become a better Christian or whatever. The only thing I remember from this movie was that the guy making bunnies was evil. I'm now athiest. But I loved this song as a kid!

  • @TaylorMarie831 God doesn't believe in athiests :)

  • @ExileTherin I guess I'm a mythical creature just like unicorns! You have no idea how long I've wanted to put myself in the same category as a unicorn. :)

  • @TaylorMarie831 I love unicorns! I hope there will be unicorns in heaven :D

  • @TaylorMarie831 You obviously didn't catch the drift of the eposide, that's ohk, Jesus loves you.

  • Kinda sad. Reminds me of someone just like not wanting anything but drugs or something. Funny, but its sad somehow.

  • jammin' to the bunny song in 2012

  • (cont'd...again) I guess the sacrifice was worth it, though. Controversy was...mostly avoided, and the message still got across. Bunnies are good in moderation. And stand up for yourself when someone tells you otherwise.

    tl;dr: I'm a dork that overanalyzes children's cartoons.

  • (cont'd) Their parents might know what it meant, but a teacher or some other authority figure might, and it's a bit less worrisome to someone out of the loop if a child is singing about being a picky eater rather than truancy and rejection of religion. I do think that they sacrificed making a stronger point, though, especially the looks on the boys' faces when Mr. Nezzer said "I won't go to church." It felt more like the song was condoning actual bad behavior rather than just wanting candy.

  • I never saw the original Bunny Song (by the time I got into VeggieTales, the only releases of Rack Shack and Benny had the "soup or my bread" version), but I was a curious little tyke and in those early days of Internets I found out not only that it was edited and why. I don't think it's necessarily that they thought kids would take the song seriously, but rather that they'd sing it regardless, as people have been known to sing songs whose lyrics don't really apply to them.

  • @OckSlayer hahaha dude i love you hahaha. I over analyze stuff all the time... i've been tempted to make a compilation video of all three versions so people can stop having to dig to find them all and then i'd get my comments on the version XD... people wont find it with all different copies of the song on youtube but i'll probably do it anyway just to satisfy my own mild OCD... lol

  • It's a funny song

  • LOVED THIS SINCE I WAS 3!!!!

  • "Fucking a bunny" :)

  • if vegetales wanted to make a good point about this they shouldnt have made the song soooo damn good!

  • does anyone else find it ironic that that rabbit food inturn eats bunny's?

  • Why would they give the bad guy the best sounding song??? lol of course kids are gonna love this.

  • I WON'T GO TO CHURCH

  • im going to have nightmares about singing bunny eating cucumbers now.

  • haha this is about drugs

  • this is my ISH !!!!

  • I love Veggie Tales!! My kids will watch this. :D

  • 29 people would NOT want to eat bunnies all day!

  • Better than most music thats out these days...

  • I thought those were penises on the thumbnail

  • Where can I find a copy of the uncut version in the Highest Quality possiable

  • @Dakkiller1 VHS-only copies by the looks of it. You can try looking for one on the Internet, but good luck. If you have a friend or family member who still has their VHS copy, you can take it off their hands if they don't want it anymore.

  • I don't get why they had to go and change the lyrics...this version is so much better! It's the one we all grew up with! Yay for the original Veggie Tales :-)

  • I won't go to church: O.O

    I won't go to school: no reaction.

    I love veggie tales(:

  • wtf?

    

  • The older version was WAY better than the cleaned-up one. Even though it did cause kids to say they hated their parents didn't want to go to educational places, It showed how Nezzer REALLY wanted his employees to do stuff that was WRONG!!! Not just not eating healthy food.

  • @larryboyrocksalot Right on. Nezzer's not supposed to learn his lesson. The point is that he's the bad guy. You're not supposed to wanna be like him. DUH puritanical editors!!!!

  • I use to watch this My family and I always joke with my brother because his voice is deep like this guy singing

  • I remember watching this when I was younger and imagining they were talking about playboy bunnies...good times

  • @xCrispy19x Maybe that's why the back-up singers make me think I'm in Las Vegas.

  • Too bad Big Idea didn't bring THESE lyrics to NBC.

  • Oogie Boogie.

  • 28 people....BACK OFF

    give the bunny some respect!

  • 28 people need to get off the bunnies

  • I eat bunnys

  • Did he say that he wants to EAT bunnies? Or that he WANTS a bunny?? Cause if he wanted to EAT a bunny I would take a baseball bat to his head! XD

  • @puppetpalsluva2000 chocolate bunnies. he wants to eat CHOCOLATE bunnies.

  • @puppetpalsluva2000 Although Rabbit is supposed to be a really fancy food (although I've never had it) this guy runs a chocolate bunny factory... You know, like for Easter?

  • The problem with this song was the fact that it was too catchy. Kids liked it too much and sung it, even though the whole point was NOT to sing it xD (I still love the original though!)

  • I too, prefer this version. Here, we understand why Shack, Rack, and Benny do not want to bow down to the Bunny-it goes against their faith, their love for their parents, their importance for other foods, their love for friends, and their importance for education.

    Aren't all villian songs supposed to be about a bad guy wanting to do something to the hero that makes us feel scared for the hero/heroine?

  • THis one is way better than the new one I think

  • Y U NO LIKE MUM OR DAD YOU ARSE?

  • Out of context, this song makes me think Veggie Tales is not suitable for children

  • He won't go to church..sick bastard

  • Comment removed

  • this guy is so EVIL

  • best chorus ever

    

  • I dont want no pickles, I dont want no honey, i just want a plate and a fork and a bunny. I dont wanna tissue when my nose is runny, i just want a plate and a fork and a bunny. I dont wanna tell you a joke that is funny, i just want a plate and a fork and a bunny. I dont wanna play on a day that is sunny, i just want a plate and a fork and a bunny. The bunny the bunny...

    That is the hardest part to learn So I wrote it for you. You're welcome.

  • Lol I used to eat those little bunny peeps while watching this and it brings back so many memories

  • This was the first VeggieTales I ever saw. And this song is still awesome to this day.

  • when i was little i thought this was a bad song that had a lot of bad words in it and i would tell on my brother when he would start singing this

  • @neon13purple LOL you must of been an annoying child xD

  • this is the obesity anthem

  • i < this song!!!is that bad if im 13

  • @KatnissPeeta101 pft no im 16 ;)

  • @igooneopets I'm turning 20 this year, and I freakin' love VeggieTales.

  • Case in point: if you don't want kinds to sing a song, DON'T MAKE IT THIS AWESOME. :P

  • What is the point of this song?

  • @cooliopinkprincess watch the movie

  • This song used to make me so sad because I have a pet bunny :)

  • this song used to creep me out .-.

  • The animation has greatly improved since this.

  • sickkk songg

  • i watched this at school for english

  • This is probably my favorite VeggieTales movies. I'm not sure why, it's the darkest. This one and the one with Madame Blueberry are my favorites :D

  • @itsmebabyyyyyy MEEEEE TOOOOO!!!!!!!!

  • LOL, I can see the problem of kids loving a villain song too much, but this one is just too awesome not to memorize.

  • no wonder he was getting a little too big for his britches

    like if you know what i mean

  • I think the older version was better. I remember watching it when I was only like 4 years old. Even at that age, I understood that the lyrics showed what Mr. Nezzar was trying to get them to do was obviously wrong, especially since he was the bad guy.

  • @xygomorphic44 me too! XD

  • he dosent go to church omg hes cold

  • I'm so glad Mr. Nezzer got his heart right!

  • its " i don't love my soup or my bread just the bunny' veggietales would never say i dont love my mom or dad

  • @steven5184 This was the original. You're thinking of the new and improved version

  • What are they saying? A plate and a fork and a bunny?

  • @Cookiecutter87 Yup. :)

  • bunny.

  • I love the other version.

  • I love the irony of how they had to change the lyrics because kid's were singing the song they weren't meant to :L WHY DID YOU MAKE IT SO CATCHY THEN!

  • @Lisaellen95 Eh it was moreso that they were getting a lot of complaints. I think most kids know better than to sing the song seriously but I understand why parents would be concerned.

  • I get why they changed it. They didn't want kids running around the house saying 'I won't go to church, I wont go to school!" But yes, I agree that this version is better than in the other 2 versions.

  • This episode was by FAR the darkest... Mr. Nezzer was going to THROW THEM INTO A FIRE!!! GOSH!!! Veggie tales is AWESOME though

  • It's stupid that they changed the lyrics. It totally loses impact without the shock value. The whole MESSAGE OF THE EPISODE was about idolotry and not giving into peer pressure, so the song had to be bad for it to be worth not wanting to wing.

  • ... Huh. Who knew~

    That's deep, but it DOES fit the story better when Rack, Shack and Benny say that won't sing it cuz there's a lot of things wrong with the song~

    'Sides, Nezzar's the villain. Now if it were Larry or Bob or (God forbid, lol) Junior singing it, THEN I think the parents have a right to be concerned~

  • Those asparagus spears are naked -- a little risque for a kids' cartoon, ain't it?

  • @TheJohnnyJohnster

    No it's not. Everyone in this show is at least half naked. But the kids aren't going to think of anything of it because there vegetables and whenever you see a vegetable, it's always "naked."

  • @Krisbcream1 Well...They could be, Because they are wearing jewely. idk if that makes a difference.

  • @Krisbcream1 Wow, that never even occurred to me. There are *plenty* of cartoons with "naked" characters out there. Most cartoons with animals as characters don't have clothes. I would never have thought it would even be an issue!

  • @ClariPossum

    It's not an issue and never was. People sometimes are just overly sensetive and try to find things bad things in everything.

  • 25 people got pickles and honey

  • i dont get it? watd they change?

  • @dkrds

    From what I can tell, in the new "censored" version, they removed the part where he said he didn't love his dad and mom and replaced it with him saying that he didn't love his soup and his bread.

    They also changed "I won't go to church" to "I won't eat no beans" and "I won't go to school!" to "and I won't eat tofu!"

  • BUT BUNNIES ARE COOOOOOOOL

  • I love this! I've actually had this song stuck in my head for days! It's so catchy!

  • At 55 it sounds like they say a f**king bunny. They really say a fork and a bunny.

    I don't know maybe it's just me. Anyway great song. I Love Jesus.

  • 0:51-1:11 Seinfeld,Much?

  • This would be great to use suring Easter when people buy rabbits on an impulse because they are so "cute". "Make Mine Chocolate" campaign.

  • Remember when this was such a creepy song ?

  • @Baileighlovesyouu yah ive watched this for all these years and i still cry during this movie

  • @Baileighlovesyouu haha i believe it still is XD

  • so..very...catchy!!!!

  • you guys i like this song

  • Or maybe it's just a song, has nothing to do with money, and was meant for a kid's show with no metaphorical or figurative devices, such as allegory?

  • Who eats chocolate bunnies with a fork?

  • @mikurulove10

    What do you eat them with? Your *HANDS*?

  • @cavealieniv Um, yeah, actually. My hands. DO /YOU/ EAT IT WITH A PLATE AND FORK? *legasp*

  • This song still scares me...

  • Lol, whenever I start singing this song, my dogs go nuts and start looking out the window for a rabbit. XDDD

  • @MythicalCreature03 Woah, it's you. This is me. Guess who. :)

  • @Nostarielable Umm..... Alicia??

  • STOP! STOP! WE'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO SING THIS SONG!

  • I remember this, never did get the blatant bible references, I just liked the song...and the pickle scared me.

  • him:i wont go to church!

    others:*stumble back in lament XD*

  • We're not supposed to sing the bunny song!

  • Did they make it different 'cuz they're saying "I just want a plate and a fork and a bunny" which might indicate animal torture?

  • @TheNarniaFreak They modified the lines "I won't go to church and I won't go to school" and "I don't love my mom or my dad", making them "I won't eat no beans and I won't eat tofu" and "I don't love my soup or my bread."

    Why: Some parents flipped since their kids were singing the song in public. =/

  • @girly10az Oh. I can see why they'd change it, but the original is waay better. Especially if you compare them side-by-side.

    Thanks

  • man THIS is the song i rememberd cant belive they inproved it

  • I miss this song so much! ;w; Why did they have to change it- it only made the story pointless. (It was for the commandment Obey your parents, and because they changed the song it made the entire thing stupid and pointless.)

  • Why in the world are we having an argument over religion on a kid's video?!

  • @emopinata12345

    Because this is a religious cartoon.

  • @22darthmaul22

    doesn't mean we should have a religious argument..I mean, just sit back and enjoy

  • @shinayakiAngel

    I just provided a simple answer.

    On a note more closely related to the video: I like this version better than the "good" one.

  • rack shack and benny 4 eva

  • 2,000 people don't love there mom and dad. (not true)

  • this video is awesome!

  • they have no arms

  • i hope they dont eat pickles aint that cannibalism... PS AINT IS A WORD NOW!

  • :O

    that is all I have to say

  • Bringin the classics back!

  • BUNNIES ARE COOL!!!

  • 20 people are bunnies and they now feel offended

  • wow! thats all I have to say

  • "I won't go to church!"

    *SHOCKED FACES*

    "I won't go to school."

    *no shocked faces*

    I love how they try to indoctrinate kids with this stuff. /sarcasm.

    So... going to church is more important than getting an education and having a good future?

    And then these same brainwashed indoctrinated kids grow up to vote to take people's rights away, think America is a Christian nation, think natural, harmless things are unnatural and harmful, think unnatural, harmful things are natural and harmless...

  • @RainbowStarlightGirl

    ...They could of had shocked faces gosh you just don't see it. Church is important to ME I know that much and do I try to take peeps rights away...lemme think...NO. IDK what other's do and you're probably much more wise then me but I take it offensively. X3

  • @RainbowStarlightGirl

    *ignores the clear militant tones here*

    it's a common editing practice to remove redundant actions that characters do.....

  • @havocy91 Why is it that saying someone's going to be tortured for all eternity for disagreeing with you loving, but pointing out that children are too young to make informed decisions on such matters militant? o.o Sounds pretty mixed up to me. Everyone should have the chance to choose their own path. Veggie Tales furthers the idea that children should be forced into Christianity before they're old enough to have the information and the skills to decide for themselves.

  • @RainbowStarlightGirl

    that's not what i'm saying, you claim that because they showed shock at not going to church but not shock at not going to school they were forcing some belief on the children when the reality is that it's common editing practice to remove redundant actions (it just looks silly unless it's being done for comedic effect)

  • @RainbowStarlightGirl

    "And then these same brainwashed indoctrinated kids grow up to vote to take people's rights away, think America is a Christian nation, think natural, harmless things are unnatural and harmful, think unnatural, harmful things are natural and harmless..."

    quite frankly i've been on the internet long enough to see a militant subtext in these lines of text

  • @havocy91 I thought all sorts of hateful things when I was a kid because my conservative Christian parents taught me they were true, especially my mom. When I got older I was constantly afraid I was going to hell over something I was born with and couldn't control. The only thing about it that was harmful was THINKING that it was harmful. Then there are kids in worse situations who kill themselves because their parents say they're an "abomination". It's sad. I'm just glad I got out of it.

  • @RainbowStarlightGirl

    well i'd suggest you'd ask your parents who said "judge not, lest you yourself be judged"

  • This song got stuck in my hesd for DAYS

  • thank yo Mr. Barry White!

  • OMGGG! MAJOR, AND EPIC NOSTALGIA! :D

  • do those things at 0:52 remind anyone of..... something?

  • "i don't love my mom or my dad, just the bunny"

    wow, this song is evil. xD

  • I ALWAYS thought they were singing, "I just wanna play with a book and a bunny" and I always thought it was weird! Like, "Why does he want a book? I thought he just wanted a bunny!" haha

  • @AjCassells it's just a part of a story line about the Shadrack, Meshack, and Abendigo (not sure on the spellings!). The veggie tales people made it a story line about a chocolate bunny factory

  • @patwearshats I remember that too... As a matter of fact the tv in my bedroom has a VCR player BUILT IN!!!

  • all the songs in my favorites playlist is from veggie tails

  • bunny

    

  • NOSTALGIA D: I remember I kept replaying the videocassette lol.

  • i remeber watching this when i was 5

  • i loved this song when i was little :-))

  • I don't get what this is trying to stop Christian children doing.. Liking small animals? Taking things in moderation? Don't be obese?

  • @AjCassells It is a chocolate bunny he ate instead of th good stuff

  • This is actually the first time I've heard the original, oddly enough.

  • @Boundwithflame23 actually I take that back.

    But some lines I don't recognize. I remember "I don't want my soup or my bread, just the bunny" and "I won't eat no beans, and I won't eat tofu" instead of the alternate lines in this version

  • really?! 20 of you dislike this video? #CanUSayHaters?

  • metaphor for weed???

  • @tonymontana19892012 idk whether to give your comment a thumbs up or down...?
