In reply to Shawn. I think the alternate translation was a joke...in any event, it's gone now :).

Man, I never expected that song to be so controversial. Next time a character is musically inclined, I’ll just have them whistle!

Seriously, though, I did think that “alternate translation” seemed weird. That’s what happens when one cites Wikipedia (or, alternately, when Lenny cites Wikipedia).

In reply to Shawn.

The translation is almost entirely wrong (say it ain’t so – something wrong on Wikipedia?!?). For instance, ‘L’on y dance’ means ‘one dances there’ not ‘Lenny’s dancing !’

She’ll be singing Thriller in a second when she finds the escapee from a few weeks ago bloodied and hiding in the barn.

In reply to James West. Good call, James! Here's a Wikipedia entry about it (complete with translation). It's just a silly little song that this girl is singing to herself while she does her chores.

It’s a common French children’s song – I’m not sure if there’s an English equivalent.

What is with the French? I need a translation.
