A couple of bullies are terrorizing a local playground when the kids decide that enough is enough, and unite to fight back!

This is the album version of the song. The old one which was published on Youtube earlier was a pre-studio test version. So no need to worry ;)

  • Since it's originally a childrenssong, you really can't expect realism and complicated stories now can you? :P

    Would have been fun to see some of the old childrens shows with a more adult-theme though... For old fans of Sesame Street, I recomend seeing the Avenue Q musical! Hysterical!

  • Not sure why people are so negative about this video. Yes it's a children's song. But it is also an analogy for real world problems. "'Cause this world is run by bullies..." He's saying that if we (the oppressed majority) stand together, our large numbers and solidarity can defeat the bullies of the world (the oppressors, who are few in umber). Check out his song "We Are Everywhere".
