Is it just me or is this song really dodgy?!?!

[stanstanthevegman]

I have name changed so this thread can't be linked to old threads and this thread is completely outing! My DDs go to a dance school and are doing a Christmas show. I absolutely love the school and the teacher is amazing and has worked to give my DDs some much needed confidence boosts so I won't be saying anything to the teacher or confronting anyone or do anything really beyond pearl clutching here. My daughter is doing a dance to a song called Back Door Santa. I can't do a link so have attached photos of the lyrics. Please tell me I am reading into these lyrics something that isn't there cos it sounds bloody dodgy as fuck!

Yup that's dodgy as fuck! Maybe the teacher hasn't listened to the lyrics properly, I would show her

That is a deeply dodgy song

Yup.

Dodgy as fuck

I think it's like a lot of songs from that time.

At least it's not 'My Ding a ling'.

Yes that's really odd especially 'I make all the little girls happy, while the boys are out to play'
I would want to know who selected the song?! 🤯

Wow no that is dodgy.

Wtf that song is creepy!

Well, I think I’m reading the same thing into those lyrics!

I rolled my eyes seeing the title after its cold outside but wow i would not be happy with that its quite inappropriate

I'm glad that it isn't just that I have a dirty mind and am reading into it! It has a really funky beat and with that and the name I can see why the teacher thought it would be ok! I'm sure on show day the song will go too fast for people to realise how bad it is!

You need to say something. A quick Google will tell her how dodgy people think this song is. Santa spending time alone wirh little girls! Yuk.

I wouldn't be impressed with the teacher thinking this was a good idea.

(Not sure where my other post has gone so sorry if this appears twice)

If you have a good relationship with the teacher, could you maybe point it out in a friendly way? Maybe a quiet comment about how you were a little surprised at the lyrics? They might appreciate the heads up before another -less understanding- parent notices!

“The lyrics are sexually suggestive, not having much to do with Christmas as a holiday”

That's even worse than when my DD's church school had all the angels in the nativity skipping on to angelly sounding music that I instantly recognised as the theme from The Exorcist.

You have to say something and save them from the embarrassment.

I have sent her a message, she doesn't seem concerned. I find it quite funny it and my DD thinks it is funky, I will just make sure she only plays it till the show. It is far to late to re choreograph it now!

Having said I find it amusing it is not one I would have had her dance to if I had a choice!

Jeeze that teacher is a bit dense isnt she?
Wtf does she think its about?
What 'Santa' doesnt go out once a year but goes trawling for little girls instead?
I would tell her before all the patents are sitting there open mouthed at the performance!

It is so wrong. I can't believe any teacher would not see what it suggests.
It is wrong.

Please charge your phone!

Hahahahaha @ThunderInMyHeart , it is charging now

Phew!

Back to the thread: yeah, dodgy as fuck. Literally.

What the fuck how could a teacher not see this is creepy as hell????

Urgh 🤢

It was written in the sixties though. Obviously it's about sex but "little girl" in sixties pop songs does not really refer to little girls any more tha "baby" refers literally to babies. And by "back door" they don't mean anal.

I'm as cautious about dodgy lyrics as the next person but people are viewing this through a modern lens.

Is the teacher really young?
