I like the fact that the dance doesnt go with the music cause im a fan of antithesis. I get bored with predictable things. The only thing i would change is the animals. If only they were real 2:07
If you listen to the lyrics well enough, the dancing goes with the lyrics. He's basically telling her that she's moving to fast and that one day she'll have to slow down.
This scopitone was sociologically speaking ahead of its day because to see a scopitone with a blackman singing surrounded by scantily dressed white women, well need I say more! The world was and still is changing! And thats good!!!
Love the cash reigister part, lol.

the dancers are dancing to Louie Louie, I think! They must've had better 'uppers' in those days.

It's great art, plain and simple. Well executed, superbly song and well choreographed. No peripheral social commentary necessary.

That's because the songs were for lovers and the dancers were probably added later. The girls would be considered Go-Go dancers.
