Veggie Tales

Heather Hendershot's most recent research has been on the parallel world of Christian media production that exists in the United States. One such media object that has made the crossover into the maistream (due in part to their merchandising contract with the evil empire) is Veggie Tales. I saw a clip of the "silly songs" video - and it's quite catchy. The direct-to-video Veggie Tales cartoons tend to present a message of chastity, forebearance, obediance, frugality, and non-violence (with occasional reference to the bible). I wasn't quite sure how to interpret this song... any suggestions?

His Cheeseburger

He said to her "I'd like a Cheeseburger,
And I might like a milkshake as well"
She said to him "I can't give you either"
And he said "Isn't this Burger Bell"

She said "Yes it is but we're closed now,
But we open tomorrow at ten"
He said "I am extremely hungry,
But I guess I can wait until then!"

   'Cause you're his cheeseburger
   His yummy cheeseburger
   He'll wait for yu-oo yeah
   He'll wait for yu-oo oh

   You are his cheeseburger
   His tasty cheeseburger
   He'll wait for yu-oo
   Oh he will wait for you...

He stayed in the drive-thru till sunrise
He may have dozed off once or twice
When he spotted a billboard for Denny's
Bacon and Eggs for half price

How could he resist such an offer,
He really needed something to munch!
Cheeseburger please do not get angry,
He'll eat and be back here for lunch

   'Cause you're his cheeseburger
   His precious cheeseburger
   Be back for yu-oo, he'll
   Be back for yu-oo

   Won't be so long cheeseburger
   Oh lovely cheeseburger
   Be back for yu-oo
   Oh he'll be back for you

'Cause he loves you cheeseburger with all his heart
And there ain't nothin' gonna tear you two apart
And if the World suddenly ran out of cheese
He would get down on his hands and knees
To see if someone accidentally dropped some cheese in the dirt
And he would wash it off for you
Wash it off for you
Clean that dirty cheese off just for YOU

You are his cheeseburrrgerrr!

(listen to the song here, I dare ya.)
