why does no one ever like. mention the weird part of all of our childhoods where we thought we were too cool for the shows we grew up with like i Know that wasnt just an isolated thing like everyone used to make fun of dora the explorer and barney especially i remember everyone used to sing to the tune of barney “i hate you, you hate me, lets strap barney to a tree, with a great big bomb and stick it through his head, 3-2-1 barneys dead” like….. that was so fucked,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, why was that a thing……
we used to sing “i hate you, you hate me, let’s all go and kill barney, with a baseball and a two by four, no more purple dinosaur”
there were probably hundreds of variations ive heard so many thts fcked
How did it even happen, there was no internet for us to get our grubby little paws on, no memes making fun of children’s shows, it was just a bunch of small telepathically linked children hating a purple dinosaur in unison ???
Over here in Malaysia and Singapore I’ve heard (and learned to sing) “I hate you, you hate me, let’s all go and kill Barney. With a great big gun, Barney’s on the floor. No more stupid dinosaur.”
It just creeps me out that kids from other countries do the same thing. Where the hell did we learn this from??
I hate you
You hate me
Let’s get together and kill Barney
With a shotgun BANG Barney’s on the floor
No more purple dinosaur!
Alternative last lyrics include “put my gun up to his head, pulled the trigger now he’s dead“ and “shot him with a 44, now there’s no more dinosaur“. There was also a version where I think we cut off his head and flushed it down the toilet. And now that I’m thinking about it where the fuck did that come from? I was homeschooled for fucks sake.
