THE PEOPLE MUST HAVE THEIR DAN MILLER

The SUV song

So, as Carolyn pointed out over here, VeggieTales sure has some catchy songs.

We had a little trip to Virginia for Christmas, and VeggieTales were definitely on the menu of our portable DVD player. Here’s one song that I really like.

It’s called “The SUV song”. Here’s a quote from the lyrics

Both: Oh you and me in our sport utility vehicles crusin to 7-11 for a bag of frito lays. Oh you and me in our sport Utility Vehicles we’ll slam into 4 wheel and pick up a dozen eggs and if there ever was a snow
Girl- A really really deep snow
Larry: And if everyone was stuck but us
Girl- We’d be the ones not stuck
Larry: then we could be the heroes
Girl- We could be the heroes
Both- we could be the herooooooos
Girl- We would push them and pull them
Larry: push them and pull them
Both- Push them and pull them right out of the snow

Good times….good times…

One of the things that I like about VeggieTales is all the non-kid related humor. Like the kids like this song for its catchiness and such but they have no idea about the whole SUV-mocking part. I think this is a mark of really good shows. I remember watching Tiny Toon adventures as a teenager and thinking about how “clever” I was because I picked up on all these “hidden” jokes that my younger brothers didn’t. Looking back, I bet there were even more jokes that *I* didn’t get.
