Randy Newman could sing a song about anal rape and id still think of toy story.

Randy Newman can sing an innocent song about true friendship and I'll still think of American foreign politics.

If you don't already get it, I don't know if there's any use explaining it. It's satire, rather biting and funny satire at that, speaking against the very viewpoint the song appears to take. There are multiple levels to the song, as there is to most things we consider art. The very young or uneducated only see the surface level. I encourage you to look deeper.

[Kelly Henderson]

this is one of the most beautiful songs in the history of mankind. the other one was gang of four to hell with poverty, but who am i ,an art critic

Can you get the satirical meaning please?

[LMTR14]

I think you´re one of those what they call a "child molester"

[teasea11]

i am not yankee but i like this song!



[GardEngebretsen]

"How peaceful it'll be, we'll set everybody free".

Isn't this exactly what US foreign policy has been like the last 10-15 years? :D

[Brittany Beck]

It's a satire.

[firefly161088]

Randy you have a bad viewpoint on reality. And I we ever " Drop The Big One" then that would start WW3 and we really can't lose anymore lives over something that's somewhat not worth it. Put some more thought into what you say.

[SpellboundSolution]

I'm guessing you're joking, but I know people who can't go for five minutes without thinking about American foreign politics.
