EDIT:
Viking Hippie found a typo!
Veggie tales, on lemmy? Alright.
I feel like the "raised fairly extreme Christian -> fuck basically all that noise" demographic is uh, kinda either underrepresented or unacknowledged on lemmy.
I may no longer be religious, but, goddamnit, that song is a banger.
I've previously ... apparently just completely introduced a fair amount of people to the NRA's uh Eddie Eagle, the gun safety mascot.
I'm guessing there is actually a fairly large amount of nerds who were raised American Christian in the 90s, who also basically had dysfunctional families, and thus spent a lot of time on their computers and the internet, trying to escape that.
It's been a long time since I heard Veggie Tales.
Me neither, but I HAVE been there.
It's quite lovely in the summer and nowhere near as cold as you'd expect.
Ah! The lyrics page I copied from must have messed that up, hah!
... the verses get increasingly ridiculous.
By the end, you have:
... this is all being sung by a 90s CGI/cartoon cucumber with a face, amongst a bunch of other CGI fruits and vegetables, dressed as pirates, basically on beach lounge chairs, on a moored like, galleass or something.
I think ostensibly the joke for the adults is supposed to be like, a guy or some guys who just own a boat, but never actually take it out, just use it as an excuse to get away from the house.
I love it!!!
