Worst Kidz Bop Lyric Changes

"Higher than a motherf***er" to "We're Kidz Bop and we're taking over!" - Starships by Nicki Minaj

No, you are not taking over and ruining our favorite songs or destroying the music industry with your cheap and horrendous rip-off songs. This doesn't even fit in with the lyrics of this song!

What has humanity come to? My parents let me listen to explicit songs when I was six, and now we have Kidz Bop? Their lyrics don't even fit!

No, the only thing you're taking over is the contest for least talented music artist!

"Hand you another drink. Drink it if you can." to "Hand you another dance. Dance it if you can." - Glad You Came by The Wanted

Besides the fact that this line makes no sense, the problem with many of these changes is that the "bad" words thrown into the song are not there by accident. They are the whole point of the song.

Are you kidding me? They changed the word drink to dance? The word drink is not a bad swear word. They ruined this song - how shameful.

I think Kidz Bop hatred is misogyny, but this is also a ridiculous change, especially if Kidz Bop is put in the lyrics.

"Like my father's come to pass." to "Like the time has come to pass." - Wake Me Up When September Ends by Green Day

There NEEDS to be a no Green Day rule. This is just a disgrace to the music industry.

"A different lover is not a sin" to "A different viewpoint is not a sin" - Born This Way by Lady Gaga

This is the worst Kidz Bop song. It basically ruined the entire message of the song to appeal to conservative parents.

These are made to appease right-wingers who want to shield their kids from everything!

They literally just took the song and stripped it of all meaning.

"I beg and borrow and steal" to "I beg and borrow and feel" - Call Me Maybe by Carly Rae Jepsen

Did this one need to be changed? At all? They censor that but allow lyrics about giving your number to strange guys.

That just sounds even more inappropriate than the original!

You're just making it sound more disturbing, Kidz Bop!

"Hey! Sexy lady!" To "Hey! Hey lady!" - Gangnam Style by Psy

I understand why saying "sexy" may be problematic, but "hey" isn't the same amount of syllables, so it just comes across as really awkward. Why didn't they just go with "pretty lady"? That would've fit perfectly!

They really ruined the song by changing the lyrics.

"Bury me til' I confess!" to "Talk to me til' I confess!" - Uma Thurman by Fall Out Boy

Kidz Bop should Kidz Stop making songs.

"You're drowning" to "You're falling" - I Knew You Were Trouble by Taylor Swift

Seriously, Kidz Bop? What's wrong with the original lyric? This is one of the most unnecessary lyric changes in the history of music.

They are both actions that can harm you.

"The boys, break their necks, (and done) try'na creep a little sneak peek, at us!" to "Boys break their necks, tryn’ to act a little crazy" - California Gurls by Katy Perry

This one is just stupid. And they also took out the Snoop Dogg rap.

How is that changed? Is it inappropriate?

"We just wanna see ya... shake that!" to "We just wanna see ya... dance that!" - Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO

Dance that what, Kidz Bop?! You don't make any sense at all! You replace so much stuff with just the word "DANCE" all the time!

“Walk into the club like what up I got a big c**k” to “Walk into the club like what up I got a hit song” - Thrift Shop by Macklemore

?

“The bed’s getting cold and you’re not here” to “The world’s getting cold and you’re not here.” - The Heart Wants What It Wants by Selena Gomez

"But it broke his heart, so he stuck his middle finger to the world, to the world, to the world." to "But it broke his heart, so he raised his hand and waved it to the world, to the world, to the world." - Let it Rock by Kevin Rudolf

This one is ridiculous. Why would you wave to the world that broke your heart?

"Oh but that one night was more than just right." to "Oh but that one day was more than okay." - Drive By by Train

There's nothing wrong with doing a night. Why, Kidz Bop?

They should have changed the "two-ply hefty bag" lyric.

Okay is a massive step from just right.

"This woman's my destiny" to "This girl, she is my destiny" - Shut Up and Dance by Walk the Moon

What's wrong with the word "woman"? It's not like it's a swear word!

Kids are girls/boys. Adults are women/men.

"And if you don't like it, f**k you" to "And if you don't like it, boo hoo" - Not Myself Tonight by Christina Aguilera

More like, "And if you don't like it, you can shut your damn mouth, Kidz Bop."

"If I took you home, we would be wearing hats" to "If I took you home, we would play on the mat" - Take You Home by Hoodie Ow

Kidz Bop changes every shop/ball pit/sisterhood reference in songs but keeps "flip your hair" in "What Makes You Beautiful"?

Because HATS. There is so much shop in that song. Why do that song, Kidz Bop?

What's wrong with the original? Am I missing something?

"Before I leave, brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack. 'Cause when I leave for the night, I ain't coming back" to "Before I leave, brush my teeth and then I go and pack. 'Cause when I leave for the night, I ain't coming back" - Tik Tok by Ke$ha

Why are you packing to go to a party?

This one is hilarious. Also, "Tryna get a little bit silly" 20 seconds later in that song.

"I rent this sh*t like cardio" to " I rent this song like cardio" - I Like It by Cardi B

That doesn't make any sense whatsoever! Throwing in random words that don't make any sense just ruins the whole song and the lyrics!

Just replace it with "stuff" or something.

"Out in the club. And I'm sipping that bubb." to "Out in the club And I'm eatin' that grub." - Telephone by Lady Gaga and Beyonce

Everybody knows what you do at the club. Why even bother with this change?

"My love for you went viral" to "My love for you went wild." - Drive By by Train

"My love for you went wild" actually sounds way more sexual than the original lyric.

So what? Kids watch viral videos! Why can't other viral things be explicit?

“Don’t wanna know, what kind of dress you’re wearing tonight” to “don’t wanna know, what kind of look you’re wearing tonight” - We Don’t Talk Anymore by Charlie Puth

That doesn't make sense, and the original song is clean anyway. There was no need to change it.

Not only is the original not harmless at all, but how on earth does that make sense?

"Like you said you were so happy you could die" to "Like you said you were so happy you could cry" - Somebody That I Used to Know by Gotye and Kimbra

Was it unnecessary? Yes. I mean, tears of joy sounds kind of sweet, actually.

"You're a real-life fantasy, you're a real-life fantasy" to "It's a life that's meant to be, it's a life that's meant to be" - Cake By The Ocean by DNCE

What's so bad about the original?

“Boys like a little more booty to hold at night” to “Don’t let it keep it at home in your room all night” - All About the Bass by Meghan Trainor

"I didn't know that I was starving till I tasted you" to "I didn't know that I was starving till I looked at you" - Starving by Hailee Steinfeld

“I drank too much and that’s an issue but I’m OK” to “I talked too much and that’s an issue but I’m OK“ - Closer by the Chainsmokers

What happened? Did you lose your voice or something?

Drank is not a bad word. Same with drunk and drink.
