From acts of infidelity, to marriage demands, Kidz Bop kids sing about some pretty awful things.

As I’m sure all of you know, Kidz Bop is the unholy creation that features children singing current pop hits. With over 30 albums in their catalog, the franchise has sold millions, while making parents, and pretty much anyone who’s a fan of music, question whether life is worth living.

Most of the time, if a song Kidz Bop is covering has suggestive lyrics, they’ll change those lyrics to make the song more kid friendly. That said, they don’t change every questionable lyric, and sometimes the changed lyrics aren’t that much better.

After combing through their extensive musical archive, and listening to far more Kidz Bop songs than any human being should, I found the eight most inappropriate Kidz Bop covers. Brace yourself, you aren’t gonna believe your ears.

 

Selena Gomez - "Come & Get It"

I don’t know who thought it would be a good idea to have kids sing, “When you’re ready come and get it,” and, “you ain’t gotta worry, it’s an open invitation / I’ll be sittin right here real patient,” but I hope whoever is behind this is doing time in a maximum security prison.

 

Hinder - "Lips of an Angel"

A song about lusting after an ex-lover, and contemplating infidelity, is exactly the kind of thing you want kids to sing, right? Apparently someone thought so, and that same someone thought there was nothing wrong with a children’s chorus singing, “My girl’s in the next room / sometimes I wish she was you.”

 

Uncle Kracker - "Follow Me"

Another song about infidelity, Kidz Bop actually changed a few of the lyrics of “Follow Me,” most notably altering “a ring” to “my ring,” to eliminate the infidelity part of the song. That said, their version of “Follow Me” still includes children singing, “I’ll be the one to tuck you in at night,” and, “I know you’re feeling guilty / and I’m well aware / but don’t you look ashamed / cuz I’m not scared.”

Yeah, we need a shower to wash those lyrics off of us, too.

 

Joe - "I Wanna Know"

After a soloist sings, “I wanna know what turns you on,” a children’s chorus follows with, “so I can be all that and more,” and we all throw up a little bit in our mouths.

 

Evanescence - "Bring Me to Life"

Easily the darkest song Kidz Bop has ever covered, lyrics like, “Bid my blood to run,” and, “save me from the nothing I’ve become” are more than a little disturbing coming from a group of children.

 

Beyonce - "Single Ladies"

Leaving aside the fact that the chorus of, “If you liked it then you should have put a ring on it,” ends up being a call for child marriage, the lyric, “Just cried my tears, for three good years,” ends up being hilarious, as three years is likely one quarter of the child singer’s entire life.

 

Justin Timberlake - "Cry Me A River"

The third song referencing infidelity on this list, and one of the best post-breakup songs of all-time, “Cry Me A River,” with lyrics like, “You don’t have to say, what you did / I already know, I found out from him / Now there’s just no chance, for you and me, there’ll never be / And don’t it make you sad about it,” is vomit-inducing coming from a child.

 

Britney Spears - "Toxic"

“The taste of your lips / I’m on a ride / You’re toxic, I’m slipping under / with a taste of poison paradise / I’m addicted to you / Don’t you know that you’re toxic?”

Hearing children sing this will make you long for the innocence of when kids simply played spin the bottle.
