Not offensive at all. Our kid sings this whenever we have sushi, watch Star Wars movies (Harrison Ford) or use vanilla. And probably at other times, too. Thanks to Grandma, the name Lola sets off Copacabana and pina coladas on a recent vacation set off Escape.

I started singing it too as soon as I saw the title.

Don't feel bad OP. I didn't realize I'd taught my son Luka until he started singing along from the back seat, and that's not even as bad as Burning Down the House. He inserts his own lyrics of what's burning down depending on what he sees or how annoying his brother's being.

I also started singing it when I read the title. Now it's stuck in my head, too!

I dunno about crude, but it certainly shows deplorable taste in music.

Chickity China the Chinese chicken
Have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm gettin frantic
Like Sting, I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy
Like Kurosawa, I make mad films
Okay I don't make films,
But if I did, they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with the tiny nubs,
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
Cause that cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing

How can I help if I think you're funny when you're mad
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Though, you soon will
I have the tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to the sides and said I'm sorry
Five days since I laughed at you and said
You just did just what I thought you were gonna do!
Three days since the living room,
We realized we were both to blame, but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause we still got two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry,
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry,
Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie.


I want to hear this song. NOW. It's the song my kids and I love to hate.

Now that song is in my head! I don't think it's offensive per se, since at the time I believe it was a reference to a health issue connected with Chinese poultry.
