Is this actually the lyrics?

Just caught DD 6 singing Grease Lightening.
Are you words genuinely "you are supreme, the chicks will cream"
And if so, how have I never noticed?
I though perhaps it was "chicks will scream?"

Dd is correct.
"Scream" is used when performed for school shows but it is cream in the film.

No, the original is indeed cream. It was changed to "scream" for Grease Live apparently.

pateandcheese · 18/12/2020 18:19

Oh god! That is not a great song for a 6 year old.

"Pussy wagon" gets changed too.

SnugglySnerd · 18/12/2020 18:20

They also say "it's a real pussy wagon" I think in the film version.

Cream and pussy wagon

Cocolapew · 18/12/2020 18:20

Not tits, "pussy wagon"

Not a clue where she's heard the song. We've never watched the film! Obviously school or dancing.

Grease is a weird one because there is a lot of adult content- e.g. Rizzo's song about having sex with guys if she has given them the impression she will, the possible pregnancy, the language in the songs..and yet people seem to think its a young kid's film!

I was a teenager when the film came out and would have thought that was the age group it was aimed at, not young children . And I love the film .... and yet, as an adult , I really don't like the message that it gives and would feel quite conflicted to watch with my own teenage daughter (if I had one, I don't )

I remember watching it as a child. And Dirty Dancing with the back alley abortion!!

Somehow everyone missed all of this in the film when it came out - some of the song lyrics are very questionable to say the least - did she put up a fight?!?

SantasNoReal · 18/12/2020 23:04

I’m sure the lyrics were in the vinyl when I was little? I remember vaguely thinking wtf
