Line #71 WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids/Music

2	[[folder:General]]
3	* There's a general assumption that any classical music must be educational and clean, especially if it's in a foreign language. Go and find a translation of Music/CarminaBurana, and then see if you think it's a good choice for a youth chorus. And just about any opera ever written.
4	** At least one youth choir director (from the Catalan region of Spain) has arranged the Mozart chorale [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbrXZvu8bUo "Leck mich im Arsch"]][[note]]Literally "Lick Me in the Ass" but can also translate to "Kiss My Ass"[[/note]] for a recorded performance. While the choral director and singers clearly knew what the song was about, it still surprises many who aren't fluent in German to find out that this angelic-sounding piece is actually a bit of ToiletHumor.
5	* This trope can apply to many of the songs, or at least artists, chosen to be played on Radio/RadioDisney stations. Besides the cases where a Creator/DisneyChannel or Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}-connected IdolSinger may opt for DarkerAndEdgier or HotterAndSexier content [[ContractualPurity as they grow older]], often artists outside of the Radio Disney/tween/family-friendly orbit like Music/FloRida, Music/BoBRapper, Music/KatyPerry, Music/JessieJ, Music/{{LMFAO}} or Music/{{Pink}} might be found on their playlists, in spite of recording many explicit lyrics (or at least less than G-rated) albums and singles. Often, the songs are [[{{Bowdlerise}} edited for content]], but it may give those artists an impression of being more appropriate for children than they are. Often this is true of PG-13 or R-rated artists like Music/LadyGaga who are freely and frequently namechecked on the [[{{Kidcom}} kidcoms]] as well.
6	** In the 2010s up until the station's demise in 2021, its focus was much less on Disney stars and music and more on rising general pop stars. The station's commitment to their 2017 "Next Big Thing" award winner Music/CamilaCabello remained strong throughout her career, even as her music became more mature, which led to them playing a ''heavily'' mangled version of her suggestive hit with Music/MachineGunKelly (who became "MGK" when referred to on the station) [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4MT1QRDkaw "Bad Things"]].
7	* This could easily become the case with ''any'' song in which the [[{{bowdlerize}} radio edit]] is better known than the original. Many people are unaware that the version they are familiar with is actually the censored version, and that the original is much less family-friendly.
8	* CountryMusic is often seen as family-friendly due to the themes of family, religion and patriotism, and there are several family-friendly songs in the genre. However, around the 2000s, more and more artists started adding more overtly sexual lyrics into their songs, as well as some minor profanities. The bro-country movement in particular seemed to embrace this, and while that subgenre has pretty much tapered off and most of those bands have gone back to lighter fare, some of those elements still remain (such as Music/LukeBryan's 2019 single "Knockin Boots"). Even "classic" country though had themes of infidelity, alcoholism, drug addiction, and even murder.
9	* Generally, any song in the PublicDomain is automatically considered a children's song regardless of context or meaning. Most notably, old MinstrelShow songs like "Camptown Races", "Oh Susanna" and "Jimmy Crack Corn" as well as Tin Pan Alley songs like "Yes, We Have No Bananas", "Bicycle Built For Two" and "In The Good Old Summer Time". This is likely because they are free to use, simple and repetitive.
10	* UsefulNotes/MonsterJam, a monster truck racing series popular with kids, has been known to use hard rock and metal songs as theme songs for the series' trucks, often without bothering to check the lyrics first:
11	** "Bad to the Bone" by George Thorogood and the Destroyers (Grave Digger theme): "[[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything I make a rich woman beg / And I'll make a good woman steal / I'll make an old woman blush / And make a young girl squeal]]"
12	** "Doperide" by Music/{{Saliva}} (Max-D theme): "Yeah... all these buster-[[PrecisionFStrike ass]] people in this life want to talk to ya-ya"
13	** "A Warrior's Call" by Music/{{Volbeat}} (Mohawk Warrior theme): "You feel the floor again, unleashing his [[PrecisionFStrike hell]] / You will not even hear the bell"
14	* Most artists in the "classic rock" genre are frequently overlooked by parents, who justify buying music for their kids by saying "it's old, therefore it must be clean, right?" Well...not only has DoubleEntendre always been a part of popular music, but artists were using "fuck" as far back as the late 60s (''Music/ExileOnMainSt'' would qualify for a Parental Advisory sticker had it been released today).
15	[[/folder]]
16	[[folder:A-N]]
17	* In the late '90s/early 2000s, Music/{{Aerosmith}} somehow became seen as a "family-friendly" band due to stuff like the Rock'n'Rollercoaster at the Disney Hollywood Studios theme park, their appearances on the Kids Choice Awards, and even a song on the ''WesternAnimation/RugratsGoWild'' soundtrack. Of course, nobody ever thought to look at the lyrics of their albums, which are full of explicit sex (as well as isolated songs about violence and drug abuse). Heck, this is the group that had a song ''titled'' "[[ElevatorGoingDown Love In An Elevator]]", which has the immortal line "Living it up when I'm going down". And it's featured in said roller coaster (though retitled "Love in a Roller Coaster"). As well as other IntercourseWithYou songs, such as "Young Lust" and "F.I.N.E."[[labelnote:*]]"[[FunWithAcronyms Fucked Up, Insecure, Neurotic, and Emotional"]][[/labelnote]]
18	* Many people believe that Music/KidRock's "All Summer Long" is a family-friendly road trip song. While the tune is happy, [[LyricalDissonance the lyrics describe two young lovers drinking, doing drugs, smoking weed, and having sex by the beach, likely underage]]. Not exactly kid-friendly material.
19	* Music/{{Aqua}} had a huge hit in 1997 with "Barbie Girl". Because the song mentions a line of dolls for young girls, it was very popular with children, despite its very sexual lyrics. Mattel even uses it in Barbie commercials, albeit with the lyrics changed to actually be about Barbie.
20	--> ''You can brush my hair, undress me anywhere..."
21	* Music/ArianaGrande has a lot of young fangirls due to the fact she began as a Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} child star on ''Series/{{Victorious}}'' and she has a "beautiful" look to her. A good number of her singles are rather clean; however, not all are. For example, "Dangerous Woman" and "Into You" both contain non-explicit sex references, and her album ''Positions'' is very clearly all about sex for the most part.
22	* Music/TheB52s were popular with kids, yet they have such [[SarcasmMode delightful]] songs as "Quiche Lorraine" (about bestiality, specifically about a poodle who runs away from Fred Schneider, dumping him for a Great Dane), "Dirty Back Road" (which is an UnusualEuphemism for doing it doggy style), and we should probably stop before we accidentally list all of ''Good Stuff''.
23	* The Young Money song "Bedrock"'s title alone is based on ''WesternAnimation/TheFlintstones''[[note]]which, despite not being ''outright'' adult-themed, [[WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids wasn't intended for kids in the first place and was geared toward adults]], [[PeripheryDemographic but that didn't stop kids from watching it anyway]][[/note]], but the entire song is a dirty rap about sex, featuring rappers known for explicit lyrics such as Music/LilWayne, Music/NickiMinaj, Music/{{Drake}}, and Tyga. It in fact uses the Flintstones' town name as a metaphor for wild sex, and literally mentions G-spots in the chorus.
24	* The North American folk song, "The Big Rock Candy Mountain," describes a fictional hobo's paradise, and is now considered a children's classic. However, the version most children are taught uses the lyrics popularized by Burl Ives, which strip the references to liquor and cigarettes (and lines like "Where they hung the jerk/That invented work"). Furthermore, Harry [=McClintock=], who recorded and wrote the song, claimed in interviews the song contained missing lyrics describing a more sinister frame story: the "Big Rock Candy Mountain" was a fairy tale used to lure children into the hobo's life, possibly for sexual purposes. The song was originally intended as a warning for younger children. It is very similar to (and most likely descended from) the English folk song, "The Appleknocker's Lament," a song that explicitly warns of child abuse.
25	* Music/BillyJoel is seen as a family-friendly singer due to goofy novelty songs like "We Didn't Start the Fire" and "It's Still Rock and Roll To Me", along with his reputation for singing [=AC=]-friendly ballads; however, a lot of his material, especially in his earlier albums, is not that family-friendly (the line "But don't come bitchin' to me" in "Big Shot" would have earned ''Music/FiftySecondStreet'' a Parental Advisory sticker had it been released in modern times).
26	* Music/BizMarkie got this often during the latter half of his life, since he played a major role on ''Series/YoGabbaGabba''. Around the peak of that show's popularity, people would often take their kids to his concerts, thinking his music would be similar to what's heard on the show.
27	* Black Lace are popular at children's parties and school discos in the UK, with innocent hits like "Superman" and "Agadoo" (the latter of which was parodied on ''Series/SpittingImage'' as "The Chicken Song"). A school disco DJ for hire will be shocked at their more questionable songs about sex, even releasing an entire album about it.
28	* In their heyday, Music/BloodOnTheDanceFloor were largely popular with preteens and teenagers. It made some sense on the surface; the band's aesthetic and sound leaned heavily into the scene subculture, which was mostly popular among teens. However, many of the band's lyrics were decidedly not for younger audiences, with strong profanity and explicit sexual references. It didn't stop a lot of young teens from listening to their music, though, to the point they formed the band's primary demographic. This took [[HarsherInHindsight an especially dark turn]] with the serious allegations that Dahvie Vanity had been taking advantage of fans as young as ten and abusing them.
29	* Music/BobRivers, known for his Christmas parody songs, suffers from this. His songs play on many radio stations during the holiday, but aren't as clean as most other holiday classics:
30	** "The Chimney Song" is about a girl smelling a terrible smell in her chimney, which turns out to be [[spoiler: Santa, who died inside the chimney]].
31	** "The Twelve Pains of Christmas" mentions adult concepts such as hangovers and paying bills and has cursing in it. What's worse is that some Christmas albums intended for families [[https://www.amazon.com/WALK-97-5-Love-Kids-Holiday/dp/B00IIXCY1Y such as this one]] (as well as some G-rated Christmas radio stations) include this song!
32	** "The Twisted Chipmunk Song" contains the chipmunks swearing and has the Dave of the parody tell them that they will be turned into shampoo if they aren't quiet. The following track on that CD, "Chipmunks Roasting On An Open Fire", has Dave ''cooking the chipmunks alive and eating them''.
33	* Music/BowlingForSoup did the theme song for ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'' (and lead singer Jaret Reddick even voices a character on the show), and also did songs for lots of kids movies, so they must be kid-friendly right? Though they did {{Bowdlerize}} some of their songs for Radio Disney airplay, the unedited versions of the songs aren't really kid-friendly (the unedited version of "High School Never Ends" for example mentions sex and drugs in the chorus alone), and that applies to their albums in general, lots of songs about sex, drinking, and profanity.
34	* Music/BruceCockburn did the theme song for ''Literature/{{Franklin}}'', so that would make him a family-friendly musician, right? You'd be wrong. A good chunk of his songs are political in nature and contain many a PrecisionFStrike (For example, "Call It Democracy" has the verse "It's just spend a buck to make a buck / You don't really give a flying fuck / About the people in misery")
35	* Music/BrunoMars seems to have a following with kids. A few of his songs have been covered on Music/KidzBop albums and nominated for [[Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} Kids' Choice Awards]], and songs co-written by him were featured in [[Film/TheMuppets2011 both modern]] [[Film/MuppetsMostWanted Muppets films]]. [[note]] Though bear in mind that Franchise/TheMuppets were originally aimed at adults, but it later was aimed at families, these performances might as well have been {{Parental Bonus}}es. [[/note]] His songs' lyrics talk about things that kids would not understand, and sometimes contain swearing.
36	* The Muppet chickens performed a clucking cover of Music/CeeLoGreen's "Fuck You" in ''Film/TheMuppets2011''. The title alone makes it clear it's not exactly a kid-friendly song, and the song also makes use of the word "shit" and the phrase "gold digger", but since there was already a [[{{Bowdlerise}} clean version]] titled "Forget You" also circulating, the producers likely assumed the target audience were more familiar with the clean version (the film's soundtrack even refers to the cover by the clean version's title).
37	* Music/{{Cimorelli}} sometimes dips to this trope with the same {{Bowdlerization}} applied. Some of the songs they cover are sometimes inappropriate but since they cover songs popular at the moment, all they just do is change some words; one example being their take on Meghan Trainor's "Lips are Movin'" (changing Trainor's "You give me bass" to the sisters' own "You give me love"). Another would be their take on Justin Bieber's "Sorry" ("Missing more than just your body" is now "Missing more than just your ''memory''", which still rhymes).
38	* "Clementine" has become a well-known children's song and has been covered countless times on various kids' [=CDs=]. It may seem like a song about a cute young girl, but if one listens closely to the lyrics, it's about her tragic death when she accidentally falls into a river. This is made worse by the fact that some versions of the song include a verse where her father jumps into the river after finding out that she drowned. Tom Lehrer's take on it (in several ''very different'' musical styles) adds to the song's not-family-friendly nature by adding the line "when she said I could have her, her sister's cadaver must surely have turned in its crypt."
39	* The soundtrack to ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'' contains a cover of Music/RodStewart's "Da Ya Think I'm Sexy?". The song may appear to be about being attractive and popular, but in reality, it's yet another IntercourseWithYou song. It also features a cover of Music/{{Radiohead}}'s "Creep," a song about personal feelings of inadequacy with a few {{Precision F-Strike}}s.
40	* Music/DemiLovato, who makes sure of showing how grown-up they are in the R&B parts of their album, ''Unbroken''. Although they have since [[CreatorBacklash admitted to feeling uncomfortable]] [[http://www.billboard.com/articles/columns/pop-shop/1561404/demi-lovato-qa-on-demi-her-x-factor-return-and-being-sick-of-party with the "party hits" on that album years later]]. Even though they thought the aforementioned album of theirs still says it by bit, later songs of theirs (with some music videos of their recent songs in the mix) do play the trope well, as if they're pulling a [[Anime/MacrossFrontier Sheryl Nome]] (“Cool For The Summer”, anyone?), at least in their singing career.
41	* "Despacito" is one of the few Spanish-language songs to hit the mainstream in many non-predominantly Spanish-speaking countries like the USA. A large portion of listeners don't understand Spanish and don't realize the song is an IntercourseWithYou song. Cue it popping up in family-friendly games like ''Just Dance'' and being [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oFmW4LiIcF4 covered by]] Mini Pop Kids (Canada's answer to Music/KidzBop) with only slight alternations.
42	* Music/{{Devo}} probably got this back in their heyday. Imagine parents, after seeing their wacky music videos and bizarre outfits, taking their families to their concerts, only to be shocked by songs such as "Speed Racer" (the "explicit version" has the "Barbie doll" saying that she "likes to fuck"), "Mr. B's Ballroom" (about a police raid during a ballroom fight), "Worried Man Blues" (which contains the line "Everything is fucked up!"), and "Planet Earth" (which mentions getting drunk "in local bars").
43	** "Beautiful World" was featured on the Starbucks Coffee-exclusive kids compilation CD ''Music For Little Hipsters'' (yes, that's really the name of it). The music video features footage of wars, along with footage of kids starving in poor countries. Someone at Rhino or Starbucks should have ''really'' checked the lyrics for the lines "It's not for me!" and "Not me!"
44	** Devo 2.0 (aka [=DEV2.0=]) takes the cake, with a bowdlerized version of an anti-George Bush song from Jerry's solo project Jihad Jerry & The Evildoers. They also were tied into several Disney-oriented projects, most notably covering Annette Funicello's "The Monkey's Uncle" for a Disneymania CD.
45	** To put the point even further, there have been reports of [[Main/{{FanCommunityNicknames}} Spuds, Devotees, and Beautiful Mutants]] taking their ''children'' to the band's concerts.
46	** It also doesn't help that Music/MarkMothersbaugh has worked on many kid-friendly works such as ''Series/YoGabbaGabba'', and ''WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie''.
47	* "[[Music/{{KISS}} Detroit Rock City]]" is one of many rather inappropriate songs featured on Tooth Tunes, a line of toothbrushes that when used play music. [[SarcasmMode Nothing brings kids to brush their teeth quite like]] [[LyricalDissonance a song about a man going way over the speed limit while going to a KISS concert and dying in a car crash!]] Did we mention it's a true story and one of the lyrics is either "I know I'm gonna die, why?" or "I know I'm gonna die, and I don't care!" depending on the version?
48	* Because of its [[http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/c/ca/Eels-Daisies_Of_The_Galaxy.JPG childlike cover art]] and song "It's a Motherfucker," Music/{{Eels}}' 2000 album, ''Daisies of the Galaxy'', upset UsefulNotes/GeorgeWBush to the point that he tried to get the album banned because he believed it was peddling obscenities to children.
49	* Music/{{Eminem}}'s early career work had him making cartoon-influenced music with childlike, colourful beats, [[SayingSoundEffectsOutLoud overdubbed sound effects]], SubvertedKidsShow music videos, children's choruses and children singing guest vocals, and him rapping in a cheerful, squeaky voice - often about childish topics like getting revenge on school bullies, teachers and [[BreadEggsMilkSquick abusive]] [[HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood parents]], giggling at PottyHumor, and being a [[TheCape superhero]]. However, his work is also filled with misogynistic and homophobic slurs and attitudes, BloodyHilarious violence, utterly harrowing BlackComedy about murdering his real life family members, and {{Cluster F Bomb}}s, which caused a huge [[TheNewRockAndRoll moral panic]] about how he was corrupting children. Eminem maintained in interviews that his music was not for children - though, in reality, it was, with him being marketed to young teenagers via his ''TRL'' appearances and his frequent lyrical themes about how he wants to make music that helps kids express themselves. He does acknowledge that ''very young'' children - the demographic that would be drawn to the children's choruses and nursery-rhyme beats - should not listen to his music (in "Stan", the fact that Stan's six-year-old brother Matthew likes Slim ''even more than Stan does'' is TroublingUnchildlikeBehavior) but in other songs he acknowledges he makes "fight music for high school kids", and is proud to introduce children to swearing and sex to help them get a little agency back in their own lives. This whole element of his persona was dropped after his overdose, as he'd aged out of being able to maintain the OneOfTheKids image without looking creepy, with ''Relapse'' being a much darker album both [[{{Horrorcore}} thematically]] and sonically, and his ageing into a legacy pop star [[RatedGForGangsta muffling much of what was left]] of the scary moral-panic-bait image.
50	* "Eung Freestyle" was played in a [=YouTube=] Music ad shown before kids' movies such as ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretLifeOfPets'', ''WesternAnimation/IceAgeCollisionCourse'' and ''WesternAnimation/FindingDory''. Despite the song being sung mostly in Korean, it has some parts with English language, some of which references adult themes. The song also starts with 3 uses of the F word.
51	* Though most of their songs have a peppy sound, Music/EvelynEvelyn is not remotely for kids. Despite its 1920s sounding tune and funny {{retraux}} animated music video, "Have You Seen My Sister Evelyn?" is about a woman complaining about her twin sister who is very promiscuous. The first part of the song is rather SFW but then the second part features profanity. There's similarly nothing child-friendly about "Sandy Fishnets" despite its lyrics or cute music video, which is about how a child prostitute was killed when she turned 13 due to being deemed too old.
52	* Music/FallOutBoy has always attracted a fairly large amount of teenagers and the older crowd due to their innuendo-filled, vulgar lyrics. That didn't stop Kidz Bop for wanting to put "Dance, Dance" on ''Kidz Bop 10''. [[http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1533265/fall-out-boy-take-on-kidz-bop.jhtml The band and their manager weren't pleased]], especially since Kidz Bop technically didn't need their permission to use it. Kidz Bop eventually dumped the track from the list. Later on, "[[DoubleEntendre Sugar, We're Goin' Down]]" got away with being used for the trailers of the Creator/TimAllen movie ''Zoom: Academy for Superheroes'' and eleven years after this incident, the group would appear in the second ''WesternAnimation/TeenTitansGo'' TVMovie, ''The Day the Night Stopped Beginning To Shine And Became Dark Even Though It Was the Day'', though the latter was because [[SoMyKidsCanWatch one of the band member's children was a huge fan of the show]].
53	* British boy band Music/{{Five}} were marketed like any boy band was at the time, and were made easily marketable to tween girls. Their hit "When The Lights Go Out" has lyrics that blatantly suggest IntercourseWithYou (one verse: "It's a blackout, girl, the lights are off / I can feel you getting closer / Now take your clothes off / Your body looks so soft / In between the sheets / I'll lay you down girl / I wanna knock your socks off"). Some fans [[LateToThePunchline were surprised to find out the meaning of the lyrics once they grew up]].
54	* Music/{{Gorillaz}}. "[[AnimationAgeGhetto They're an animated band, so they must be for kids, right?]]" Wrong! Not only does the animated band consist of a drug-addict, a middle aged sexually-frustrated satantic bassist, a demonically possessed drummer, and a Japanese super soldier who's the last remaining member of a top-secret government project, but there are also a lot of serious, heavy themes in the music lyrics, including philosophy, depression, loneliness, terrorism, war, etc. It doesn't help that they would later temporarily add Ace from ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls1998'' to their lineup, or that the aforementioned super soldier was initially depicted as an adorable ten-year-old girl.
55	* Music/GreenDay:
56	** Originally, Music/GreenDay's CD ''Dookie'' had an Ernie (from ''Series/SesameStreet'') puppet in the mosh pit. Just for starters, track 14 is called F.O.D. (Fuck Off and Die). For this reason as well as fear of litigation, Ernie was airbrushed out of later pressings of the album. Ironically, the album's title would later be used in the ''Sesame Street'' video "Elmo's Potty Time". A few reviews complaining about the segment containing the word "dookie" [[https://www.amazon.com/Sesame-Street-Elmos-Potty-Time/product-reviews/B000G0O5F0/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_viewopt_kywd?ie=UTF8&reviewerType=all_reviews&showViewpoints=0&pageNumber=1&filterByKeyword=green+day point this out]] when they mention it's not for kids.
57	** There is a ''Music/KidzBop'' version of "[[http://www.kidzbop.com/video/1228572/webshows/music/Boulevard-of-broken-dreams-green-day.html Boulevard of Broken Dreams.]]" The title alone should have given them an inkling that this wasn't the sort of fun, upbeat material that belongs on a ''Kidz Bop'' CD, but the lyrics make it abundantly clear.
58	** One music magazine given to students as early as middle school had, in one of their issues, an article on the musical of ''Music/AmericanIdiot''.
59	* One of the few times where 20 Fingers and Gillette performed "Short Dick Man" uncensored was... [[https://youtu.be/okHz7CE8wp0 on one of Xuxa's Saturday morning kids' TV shows in Brazil]]. It's likely Xuxa and Marlene Matteos probably knew about the lyrics but they didn't care because the children in the audience didn't understand English.
60	* Music/{{Gwar}} produced songs for an episode of ''WesternAnimation/CodenameKidsNextDoor'', which is a family-friendly show. The rest of Gwar's material, however, is [[ShockRock not family-friendly in the slightest]].
61	* Two words: Music/HilaryDuff. Some people assumed she was a children's musician because she was on Creator/{{Disney}}. Many little kids liked her and [[InnocentInaccurate didn't know what she's talking about]]. Not to mention she had a squeaky-clean image -- no tattoos or piercings, for starters. But have parents (or the kids) bothered looking at the lyrics to her songs?
62	** Little Voice (When I see you I admit/ I start to lose my grip and all of my cool...all I really want is you/ But there are some things a girl won't do)
63	** Metamorphosis (Come on and give me a kiss/ Come on, I insist)
64	** Party Up (You roll me, you use me, you love me and then/ You wrap me up and reel me in and use me again)
65	* If you went to any party where rap music was played in 2015, you probably heard "Hot Nigga" played at least once. This song was a HUGE hit in 2014, even among (primarily African-American) elementary school-aged kids, who knew how to do the dance that goes along with it (known as the "shomoney" dance). The explicit title alone (the clean version is called "Hot Boy") is enough to shock parents into not buying or downloading the song for their kids, as well as the stage name of the artist who made it (Bobby [=ShMURDA=]), but wait until you hear the lyrics of the song.
66	* One would assume the Music/InsaneClownPosse were a family-friendly act based on their wacky makeup and larger-than-life personas, along with the fact that one of their few mainstream hits, "Homies", is a lively rap rock song about the importance of friendship. They'd be wrong. Their songs tend to be barely family-friendly, if at all, and are full of BlackComedy and profanity.
67	* Creator/JackBlack is heavily associated with being a kid-friendly comedian thanks to films such as ''Film/NachoLibre'', ''Film/SchoolOfRock'', and ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda1''. His band Music/TenaciousD has had PG hits, like "Wonder Boy" and "Tribute"[[note]] Though the latter ''is'' about the band having to play "the best song in the world" in order to avoid getting their souls eaten by a demon. [[/note]]; however, much of their material is not clean.
68	* As with the original book, ''Music/JeffWaynesMusicalVersionOfTheWarOfTheWorlds'', even if it goes into slightly less graphic detail.
69	* Music/JesseMcCartney was a preteen and teen sensation in the 2000s with songs like "Beautiful Soul" and "Because You Live". On the same album as "Right Where You Want Me", there are songs like "Daddy's Little Girl" (which is about a girl who recently turned 18 and wants to experience "adult things" now). It doesn't help matters that his songs were frequently played on Radio Disney and that he starred in [[Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks several]] [[Franchise/DisneyFairies kid-oriented]] [[WesternAnimation/HortonHearsAWho2008 projects]].
70	* Johnny Crawfish is a character from the Creator/PBSKids show ''Series/TheNoddyShop''. He has an ImageSong called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w4ZYGCsgKrQ "Special"]], which was made to promote the show to foreign investors, but it...isn't as kid-friendly in comparison. Not only does the song have lyrics suggesting IntercourseWithYou, but it also includes the line "You don't give me heaven, and [[PrecisionFStrike I'll give you hell]]".
71	* Music/JustinTimberlake gets this a lot. Yes, he got his start on ''[[Series/TheMickeyMouseClub The All-New Mickey Mouse Club]]'' and he played Branch in and wrote a song for ''WesternAnimation/{{Trolls}}'', but most of his songs aren't exactly family-friendly.
72	* Music/KatyPerry's appeal to young children (due to the fact she's basically pop music's Candy Queen) is arguably what makes up the bulk of her popularity. However, not only is there the [[{{Stripperiffic}} sexually provocative outfits]], in her music there's also the [[ClusterFBomb swearing]], the sexual references and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking the harshly worded]] [[TakeThat take-thats]].
73	* Music/KellyClarkson has her music played on Radio Disney and starred in a few kids' works like ''WesternAnimation/PhineasAndFerb'', ''WesternAnimation/HomeAdventuresWithTipAndOh'' and ''WesternAnimation/UglyDolls''. However, some of her songs contain adult themes and mild cursing.
74	* Music/LilDicky's "Earth" is an [[GreenAesop environmental]] CharityMotivationSong with a brightly coloured AnimatedMusicVideo starring various music stars as animals. It's also full of profanity and VulgarHumor not uncommon in Lil Dicky's style. He did release a [[{{Pun}} "clean"]] version of it so viewer's kids can watch, which censored most of the swears with animal noises but still leaves Music/JustinBieber saying "my anus is huge".
75	* [=LeaF=]'s [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nC-bVtpIMd4 "MopeMope"]] features a cute kiddy song...[[DisguisedHorrorStory that occasionally glitches out into sounds from Hell and then turns into a nasty hardcore arrangement of itself]], while the music video features cute happy smiling flowers and hopping spherical critters that turn into nasty otherworldly horrors. At some point, [=YouTube=]'s content-detection system flagged the video as a [=YouTube=] Kids video, forcing the creators to slap on a warning at the top of the description that the song is very much ''not'' suitable for kids.
76	* According to an interview in the late 1990s, Music/LilKim was appalled at how some of her fans were proudly playing her songs for their young children. Lil' Kim was well-known for her sexually-explicit lyrics, extolling the virtues of oral sex (giving and receiving) among other topics.
77	* Music/LilNasX has repeatedly had to deal with this problem since his BreakthroughHit, "Old Town Road", was seen partially as a meme-based novelty and was tremendously popular with children (despite the fact that it references Lean, adultery, and "boobies"). The rest of his discography isn't very clean, and especially after he came out as gay and began more publicly embracing [[GayCowboy homoerotic imagery]], he's ended up repeatedly targeted by MoralGuardians as being a [[ThinkOfTheChildren "corrupter of youth"]], despite the fact that --as supportive as he is of children-- he doesn't even consider them his target audience and has made no bones about the fact that he won't be catering to them forever.
78	* Music/LinkinPark has always had a following amongst tweens and young teens despite not being aimed at them. Their first few albums were favorable amongst parents because, though the songs were gloomy and dark, there wasn't much violence, sexuality, or cursing. Their album ''Music/MinutesToMidnight'' caused controversy because it featured profanity.
79	* "Lone Digger" by Music/CaravanPalace has an [[AnimatedMusicVideo anim]][[AnimationAgeGhetto ated]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UbQgXeY_zi4 music video]] starring a trio of anthropomorphic cats, among other FunnyAnimals. But just ten seconds in, the building the cats are walking to is revealed to be a ''strip club''. That's not all; inside, the cats meet a trio of dogs, one of whom is smoking a cigar. Two fights eventually break out, one between the cats and the dogs, the other between a bull and a snake; both completely avert BloodlessCarnage. At the end of the video, [[spoiler:everyone in the club sans a deer, who could be seen pole dancing throughout the video, has been killed.]]
80	* When filk-rapper Luke Ski appeared at a ''Harry Potter'' new-release celebration, he was asked to perform each of his songs with ''Potter'' references. Evidently the event's organizers hadn't listened to the rest of these songs, as Luke had to improvise alternative lyrics on the fly to avoid exposing grade-school kids to lines about Jay and Silent Bob smoking pot.
81	* Music/MachineGunKelly and Music/CamilaCabello performed their duet "Bad Things" at the 2017 Kids' Choice Awards. While the censors caught the words "drug" and "high", they let the pair get away with some ''very'' explicit lyrics for a G-rated program:
82	-->''Nails scratchin' that back tatt''\
83	''Eyes closed while you scream out''\
84	''And you keep me in with those hips''\
85	''While my teeth sink in those lips''
86	* Because he's made songs about things other than money, bitches, murder, and drugs, many people seem to be under the impression that Music/{{Macklemore}} is a "family-friendly" rapper. Of course, being a famous rapper, his music is rife with [[ClusterFBomb swearing]], and his music has touched on not-so family-friendly issues in a non-glorfied way, such as drug addiction and having sex.
87	* Music/{{Madness\|Band}}: "House of Fun" sounds like a cheerful and bouncy song about balloons, birthday parties and having fun. On a closer listen to the lyrics however, it's actually about a teenager trying to buy condoms on his 16th birthday (the legal age for sex in United Kingdom), but he is misunderstood by the shop assistant and directed to a party supplies shop called the "House of Fun." There's a bit of LyricalDissonance here because it's such a bouncy song, but the lyrics go right over the heads of many people in the U.K. who play the song at children's parties and on kids' TV!
88	* {{Music/Madonna}} attracted a HUGE fanbase of young girls when she first became popular in the '80s and many young girls would try very hard to make her look, from her long hair full of messy curls to wearing her lace fingerless gloves. And while a lot of her earlier singles (e.g. "Lucky Star" and "Material Girl") were rather harmless, sugary sweet pop flavor, her image was very sexualized and some of her other songs (e.g. "Burnin' Up" and "Like a Virgin") were rather erotic in nature - for the times, at least.
89	* Brazilian comedy rock band Mamonas Assassinas was huge among children and teenagers in [[ShortLivedBigImpact their year in the limelight before dying in a plane crash]], given their wacky demeanor, colorful costumes and silly lyrics. Which as the band itself pointed out, if they were [[PeripheryDemographic aiming for such a young audience]] those lyrics would not have peppered swearing (which might've helped, given kids [[FromTheMouthsOfBabes loved repeating the profane words]])... or VulgarHumor, {{Double Entendre}}s and [[https://youtu.be/IBUq5OZBvf8?t=111 sexual content]] (hell, the cover for their album had a drawing of a topless woman) that made those fans [[LateToThePunchline figure out all the obscenity once they grew up]].
90	* Tween [=YouTube=] singer, [=MattyBRaps=], covers inappropriate songs while [[{{Bowdlerization}} bowdlerising]] the more inappropriate lyrics. He covered songs such as Music/ChrisBrown's "Loyal" (changing "These hoes ain't loyal" to "That girl ain't loyal") and Robin Thicke's "Blurred Lines" (a song which can only be interpreted to be about date rape).
91	* Music/MelanieMartinez dresses in cute pastel dresses and sings [[LyricalDissonance cheery sounding]] songs with names like "Teddy Bear" and "Dollhouse". Despite this she is not a musician you should probably let your toddler listen to. Her songs are often about dysfunctional romances, abuse, [[MurderBallad murder]], and [[SanitySlippageSong mental instability]]. Almost all of them feature profanity, and some of the music videos contain NightmareFuel as well.
92	* Music/MileyCyrus is now becoming a crowning example of this - to the point her "HotterAndSexier lead single" has right in the intro "It’s our party we can love who we want, we can kiss who we want, we can screw who we want". Pretty disturbing for the person who used to be Disney's Series/HannahMontana (although ''Younger Now'' slightly toned down the sexual aspect of her bad girl image). While the controversy regarding "Can't Be Tamed" was enough to get even mentioning her name temporarily banned from Radio Disney in the United States, the song received airplay from Radio Disney and the actual Disney Channel in some non-American countries.
93	* Milk Rocks was a company who advertised on milk cartons, targeting children in grades K-12. They had contests, many related to music with mostly child-friendly artists. However, some contests were deemed too inappropiate.
94	** The Theatre/InTheHeights contest was the tamest example. In the musical, there is some swearing, and young kids may not understand the plot of the show.
95	** They also had a Music/Maroon5 contest... when about half their songs are about IntercourseWithYou. No wonder the contest was eventually taken off the website.
96	*** Speaking of Maroon 5, "Payphone" was featured in a Nickelodeon promo for ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants''. It seems like a cheery song about a person who wants to live a fantastic life, but it drops the F-bomb at one point in the uncensored version. No wonder the promo in question didn't last that long on the channel!
97	* Music/MirandaCosgrove. Same problems as Hilary Duff (although she's with {{Creator/Nickelodeon}}, not Creator/{{Disney}}). In fact, some of her songs reek of this.
98	** What Are You Waiting For (Here I am, Take a chance/What are you waiting for/I'm telling you, As a friend/We could be so much more)[[note]]This song hints of the theme of TheirFirstTime.[[/note]]
99	** Sayonara (Party, hands all over my body/Working out like karate/Tell me boy can we kick it now/Can you hold me down)[[note]]The song's theme is IntercourseWithYou. 'Nuff said.[[/note]]
100	* Music/MissyElliott's crazy music videos make her popular with kids but her songs are less than kid-friendly.
101	* "Miss Lucy Had Some Leeches" might ''sound'' like it's a [[LyricalDissonance cheerful kid's song]], but if you actually listen to the lyrics, you'll discover that it's... [[IronicNurseryTune not]]. In fact, it's about insane asylums, female circumcision, and rape. Then again, the fact it's by Music/EmilieAutumn should be enough of a clue for anyone even slightly familiar with her.
102	* "Monster" by the Automatic has become a bit of a Halloween staple, even being played at childrens' parties, in addition to being [[RepurposedPopSong turned into a jingle for Hexbugs]] and included in ''[[VideoGame/RockBand Lego Rock Band]]''. This status almost certainly comes from people [[IsntItIronic only listening to the lyrics to the chorus]], as the verses make it pretty clear the song's about drugs, with the titular "monster" being a metaphor for intoxication.
103	* Music/{{Skillet}}'s song "Monster" has become a Halloween staple, being played at everything from childrens' parties to big Halloween events. The lyrics make it pretty clear that the song's actually about mental health issues, with the "monster" the song's narrator has to "keep hid under lock and key" being a metaphor for something such as bipolar disorder.
104	* In the early 2000's, Music/{{NSYNC}} was marketed to elementary school children via merchandise tie-ins and their songs being played on Radio Disney during its' early years. However, some of their songs contain rather adult themes. For example, the chorus of "Pop", which was featured in ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfJimmyNeutronBoyGenius'', compares the addictiveness of that genre of music to getting high on drugs, and "Digital Get Down" [[IntercourseWithYou is about cybersex]].
105	[[/folder]]
106
107	[[folder:O-Z]]
108	* At their height in popularity, Music/{{Paramore}} were huge with tweens, not helped by their music being featured on numerous film soundtracks. One of their first hit singles, "Misery Business", is an angry rant against a woman with an emphasis on explicit SlutShaming.
109	** An American Girl magazine contained a story sent in by an 10-year-old reader who was playing a Telephone-esque game at a slumber party and was confused when she had to repeat "I love ratty hair more!" to the next person, as her best friend, who had started the game, would never say something so crazy. The message turned out to be "I love the band Paramore!".
110	* The Music/PussycatDolls seem like an ordinary GirlGroup, but they in fact started out as a burlesque dance troupe before foraying into pop music after recruiting Eden's Crush alumnus Nicole Scherzinger. Nevertheless they were marketed to little girls with merchandising, including a planned line of dolls that was shelved after MoralGuardians complained.
111	* Music/{{Pink}} makes funny music videos, has an outgoing persona, is brightly coloured and performed a song for ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' called "We've Got Scurvy", but most of her songs are intended for adults.
112	* One CD of kids' music includes "Rap das Armas"[[note]]Literally "Weapons Rap"[[/note]]. This is a song that has a chorus that sounds like a machine gun, among other things.
113	** Gets even worse if you understand Portuguese, as it's basically an ode to the drug dealer lifestyle[[note]][[TheCoverChangesTheMeaning The cover that became popular,]] that is; the original was a ProtestSong[[/note]]. And know it was used in [[Film/TheEliteSquad one of the most violent Brazilian movies of the 2000s]].
114	** Talking about ''Film/TheEliteSquad'', [[SerialEscalation it doesn't stop there]], see [[http://tvuol.uol.com.br/permalink/?view/id=turma-da-monica-em-tlopa-de-elite-0402CD183572DCC11326/mediaId=11879507/date=2011-07-28&&list/type=tags/tags=1092/edFilter=editorial/ this link]] (in Portuguese) where Captain Nascimento stars in the video with [[ComicBook/MonicasGang Monica and Jimmy Five]][[note]]Granted that the comics enjoy a relevant PeripheryDemographic in Brazil, but still...[[/note]].
115	* Arguably, Music/ReelBigFish's 2007 album ''Monkeys For Nothing and the Chimps For Free'' may be in the same category, as its first song is a lighthearted tribute to losers who can't find a crowd to party with, and it has a [[https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/f/f9/Reel_Big_Fish_-_Monkeys_for_Nothin%27_and_the_Chimps_for_Free_cover.jpg rather cartoony cover]]. [[ClusterFBomb Then the second track starts...]]
116	* Speedcore artist ''Renard'' (which made albums under the [=LapFox=] label) has a dedicated small demographic of 9 year-olds. Most of his tracks are indeed kid-friendly (heavy SensoryAbuse notwithstanding), but some others are anything but, with outright [[SarcasmMode lovely]] names like ''Team Murder''. These lines from the track ''Big Shot'' drive the point home:
117	-->''If I was president''
118	-->''I got elected on Friday''
119	-->''assassinated on Saturday''
120	-->''maybe on Sunday''
121	* In 1982 - 1983, millions of preteen and teenage girls were greatly moved as they sat by their record players and listened to then-teen idols Music/DuranDuran's hit single "Save a Prayer", and when they saw Duran Duran perform said song live they flicked their Bic lighters on and swayed to and fro. All of this raw emotion was for a song singing the joys of one-night stands. It doesn't help that the song sounds like a beautiful melancholy "break up song"-type ballad (even if it does mention 'a one-night stand') and the band's lyrics tend to be varying degrees of [[WordSaladLyrics "word salady"]]. It sounds like a beautiful, loving, romantic, sensitive ode to a one-night stand....or something.
122	* Music/TravisScott has a very large audience of kids and teens, especially after the highly-attended VideoGame/{{Fortnite}} virtual concerts; however, his music couldn't be more adult if he tried. In the Dirty South Texas tradition, most of his songs are about sex, drugs, and violence. What are you doing buying your kid an album where the opening song is called "Pornography", anyway?
123	* The song "Sexy and I Know It" is being used in commercials for both [=M&Ms=] candy and ''WesternAnimation/Madagascar3EuropesMostWanted'', and was also used quite a few times in ''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvania''. First of all, the band is called Music/{{LMFAO}}, which supposedly stands for "Loving My Friends and Others", but more frequently means "Laughing My Fucking Ass Off". Second, a majority of their songs involve having sex with ladies, and have ridiculously large amounts of swearing, drinking, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking party rocking]] (and the less said about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyx6JDQCslE&list=UUk78ZcA6kflEvBR0UrGDH0Q&index=4&feature=plcp its video]], which doesn't have a parental warning on Website/YouTube [[FanDisservice for nothing]] - the better)
124	* Creator/ShelSilverstein's ''other'' career - when he wasn't writing children's stories or articles for Magazine/{{Playboy}}, he was writing songs. Unfortunately, songs tend to be remembered as being by their performers, not their writers, but he's the man who wrote "A Boy Named Sue" (bad language, violence), "The Mermaid" (ahem inappropriate subject for children), and "You're Always Welcome at Our House" (depicting the murders of various visitors to the house by the children), which ''Series/TheMuppetShow'' actually [[http://youtu.be/DZ-EJNz2AoE used in a sketch]] in the Marisa Berenson episode, cheerfully playing up the Roald Dahl-like comedy.
125	* The Music/SpiceGirls. The song "Two Become One" [[IntercourseWithYou is about sex pure and simple]] with the chorus going "I wanna make love to you baby" and the line "Be a little bit wiser, baby/Put it on, put it on" which could only be about a condom (not to mention this line is made to rhyme with "get it on, get it on"). Imagine a slumber party of 6-10 year old girls dancing around and singing those lyrics. Then there's "Holler" which contains lyrics about "fantasy rooms" and "start from the bottom and work your way up slowly". Then of course if you take the basic premise of five girls in {{Stripperiffic}} outfits posing provocatively, you may be alarmed at the fact that little girls looked up to them. They were nonetheless marketed to little girls with [[TheMerch oodles of merchandising]].
126	* Music/StarBomb does songs about kids' favorite video games, from ''Franchise/SuperMarioBros'' and ''Franchise/TheLegendOfZelda'' to ''Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog'' and ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}''! No wonder explicit labels are put on them, they have [[ClusterFBomb frequent profanity]] and [[SubvertedKidsShow subvert the innocence of your favorite video game characters]]. One example would be [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog "Sonic Best Pal"]], which features Tails taking drugs as a result of being in Sonic's shadow and [[EnfantTerrible then going on a shooting spree]].
127	* A favorite song for grade-school children's church choir is [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wvVs_s1IbrU "The Rhythm of Life."]] This is a perfectly fine choice... unless a child or parent decides to look up the song and ends up finding the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gj9xsSuczes original unsanitized version]] from the musical ''Theatre/SweetCharity''. For example, there are clear differences between "And the voice said 'Neighbor, there's a million reasons/Why you should be glad in all four seasons./Hit the road Neighbor; leave your worries and strife./And spread the religion of the rhythm of life,'" (choral version) vs "And the voice said 'Daddy there's a million pigeons/Waiting to be hooked on new religions./Hit the road Daddy; leave your common-law wife/Spread the religion of the rhythm of life,'" (musical version).
128	* "Stacy's Mom" by Music/FountainsOfWayne, which is about [[StacysMom a boy falling in love with his friend's mom]], was played a lot on Radio Disney in the 2000's. The song itself contains several suggestive lyrics if one listens closely.
129	* One of Todrick Hall's albums, ''Music/StraightOuttaOz'', falls under this trope. Yes, it's based off [[Film/TheWizardOfOz a popular family film]] and some of the songs are pretty G or PG-rated, but then you get tracks with titles such as "Whoop Dat Ass" and "Wrong Bitch", along with lyrics such as "It's just another box of tricks/Some crock of shit/And good dreams go wasted" and "Your seat's a floating device, but who cares?/'Cause if the plane goes down in flames/You won't be floating nowhere".
130	* "The Thanksgiving Song" by Adam Sandler may seem like a funny song about Thanksgiving at first listen, but it actually contains a few lyrics referencing sexual activities.
131	* The song "Timmy Turner" by Desiigner is named after the main character of ''WesternAnimation/TheFairlyOddParents''. Not exactly the right choice for a dirty profanity-laced rap song about killing people.
132	* The early '70s pop-rock group The Buoys got into trouble with MoralGuardians when it released a single (written by Rupert "Piña Colada Song" Holmes) called "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DGNdvKvbxYQ Timothy]]". A very, fun, catchy and child-friendly single -- about ''cannibalism''. This was actually the song's [[NoSuchThingAsBadPublicity intended purpose]] -- the band's record deal did not include promotion as part of their contract, and thus they had to find another way to promote themselves. Holmes suggested the band deliberately record a song that would be banned, thus [[ForbiddenFruit making people want to hear it more]]. Needless to say, the plan worked.
133	* Music/{{TLC}}. "Waterfalls" seems like a female empowerment song from first glance, but is actually about subjects such as the toll of urban gang violence and [=HIV=]/[=AIDS=] (the "three letters" that took one of the characters to his resting place? [=HIV=]). "No Scrubs" uses the term "broke-ass" to refer to the loser men the trio bash in the song. Then of course if you saw the trio in {{Stripperiffic}} outfits in the video for "No Scrubs", you may be surprised that little girls looked up to them as idols.
134	** Their second album was called ''[=CrazySexyCool=]'', which should tip you off that it wasn't for kids, and with songs like "[[IntercourseWithYou Red Light Special]]" and "Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes", which features a profanity-heavy verse from [[Music/{{Outkast}} André 3000]], it's obviously intended for a mature audience.
135	* Music/TheyMightBeGiants try as hard as they can to avoid this by splitting their tours in two to join to their two distinct fanbases (their original alternative rock fans and their new children's music fanbase). The "adult shows" (the one where they play their non-children's material and back catalog) have an 18+ (or 21+ in some places) cover for when someone tries to bring their kid into an adult TMBG concert expecting to hear music from their children's albums. In addition to the difference in content, this is because "adult shows" tend to take place in venues that serve alcohol, so bringing someone under 18 would generally be illegal.
136	* The song, "Twerk It Like Miley" is overly played in the Philippines, no thanks to the noontime variety show ''Series/EatBulaga'' for playing it repeatedly. If one looks into the lyrics, it's about Music/MileyCyrus' infamous twerking incident in 2013 with the words "ass" on the chorus and if one watches the [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLE57UZievU music video]], it's clear that this is not something that a 10 year-old should watch. Be thankful that MoralGuardians are not aware of this......for now.
137	* Music/TwistedSister had issues with this at the height of their popularity. With such songs as "I Wanna Rock" and their wacky music videos, they attracted a large following of rebellious teens and even preteens. Parents would take their families to their shows then complain when it turned out the band was anything but PG.
138	* Music/{{Voltaire}}:
139	** While he did do a song called [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_i7tqWMbUFU "BRAINS!"]] for ''WesternAnimation/TheGrimAdventuresOfBillyAndMandy'', which airs on Creator/CartoonNetwork, that is kid-friendly, his other songs, most notably "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaD2iqGvn1w Cantina]]" and ''Zombie Prostitute'', are not.
140	** Voltaire eventually did release a children's album called ''Spooky Songs for [[CreepyChild Creepy Kids]]''. However, although that one consists almost entirely of {{Bowdlerised}} versions of preexisting songs, it's [[WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids the opposite trope]] as it still deals with subjects like cannibalism.
141	* Music/TheWeeknd is a perennial favorite of Creator/{{Nickelodeon}}’s Kids Choice Awards despite his work containing strong language, explicit sexual content and pervasive themes of drug abuse. He even talks about this phenomenon in “Reminder”:
142	->''I just won a new award for a kids' show''
143	->''Talking 'bout a face numbing off a bag of blow''
144	->''I'm like goddamn bitch, I am not a Teen Choice''
145	->''Goddamn bitch, I am not a bleach boy''
146	* Music/{{Ween}} composed an original song for a ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants'' episode and their song "Ocean Man" was played at the end of the movie. A large portion of the rest of their songs [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Se9vvLsVUI are not kid friendly.]]
147	* Music/{{Wham}} were a popular act of the Second British Invasion of the early 80s, and had an enormous fanbase of teenage girls on both sides of the pond. However, their songs' lyrics often talk about things that their teenage fans could not understand (for example, "Club Tropicana" satirizes Club 18-30, a package holiday service that was popular in the UK at the time amongst rowdy teens, "Wham Rap! (Enjoy What You Do)" satirizes government assistance from the UK's Department of Health and Social Security for unemployed low-life-type people (hence the initials "DHSS" that are repeatedly chanted during the song) and "Careless Whisper" was based on George Michael's past relationship issues with multiple girls). And not to mention the original version of the "Wham Rap!", which contained hard swear words such as "damn", "bullshit", and "shit".
148	* "What Shall We Do with the Drunken Sailor" seems to have become quite a popular song for children, and has been featured as background music on ''WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants''. As the title implies, it's about drunkenness and a few quite horrific ways a 19th century Navy might have dealt with it. And if you misunderstand the line about the Captain's daughter, you might even think there's some sexual innuendo. Although it's anyone's choice if they prefer to tell their child about sex or about the cat-o'-nine-tails...
149	* "Yaranaika" is a song that's a parody of one from [[Manga/KirarinRevolution a children's anime]], but while it does retain most of the lyrics from the original song, much of the changed lyrics are inappropriate for children. For starters, the title references a memetic panel from a {{hentai}} comic and in context means [[IntercourseWithYou "Wanna fuck?"]] Despite this, the song has popped up in videos intended for children such as [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jAnfX6Z3KVc this one]].
