Children's Group Hi-5 Says Song Doesn't Apply To Everyone

The children's music group Hi-5, whose show is featured on Discovery Kids, has issued the following statement regarding the song "Some Kind of Wonderful."


Recently, on our television program, we sang a song called "Some Kind Of Wonderful." This song included the following lyrics:

You are some kind of wonderful.
You're wonderful.
You are wonderful to me.
You are some kind of wonderful.
You're wonderful.
You are everything to me.

As a band, we are uncomfortable singing this in such a general way to the whole world without issuing the following caveats to let certain people know that this song does not apply to them.

Kimmie: This song does not apply to my ex-boyfriend Ronald Dawson, who left me and dropped out of college to play video games. It also does not apply to my neighbor, who shouldn't live in a house with such thin walls if she doesn't want to hear my music late at night.

Karla: This song does not apply to my agent, who I just found out is taking a bigger cut of my salary than anybody else on the show, or to the kid at our last live show who cried all the way through my big solo I do in pajamas holding a teddy bear.

Curtis: This song does not apply to my 7th grade English teacher, who did not let me turn in a paper late, or Stacy Waterson, who said no when I asked her to the prom, or Thomas "Ox" Johnson, who beat me up once or twice. A week. For three years.

Shaun: This song does not apply to any of the police officers who have ever given me speeding tickets, or to any of their families. Not even their kids. Unless their kids run away, right now, and find a new family.

Jenn: This song does not apply to any of the Wiggles. Or that rotten Captain Feathersword. Or Hannah Montana. Or anybody else who sells more live show tickets than us.
