Someone thought they heard a rather NSFW lyric in a popular kids’ film and it’s all we’ll ever hear from now
Disney aren’t renowned for using ripe language in their kids’ films, so it came as a surprise to Twitter/X user Dean Johnson who was convinced he heard a rather sweary lyric in their popular CGI musical Moana.
We’ll let you watch the clip in question first so you can decide for yourself…
I can’t be the only one who hears “it’s like the tide always f**king rising” in a heavy Scottish accent, right? pic.twitter.com/xmvDTolLz6

Did that seem innocent enough? Or, like Dean, did you hear it as this?

If you didn’t hear it that way at first, then we guarantee you’ll always hear it that way from now on.
It’s from the song I Am Moana (Song of the Ancestors) and apparently what she is singing is
And the call isn’t out there at all
It’s inside me
It’s like the tide, always falling and rising
Fair enough. We’ll take their word for it. Let’s plunge into the replies …

Well that's one of my favourite parts of the movie forever altered. I'm not mad about it, either. https://t.co/oSPVaueCk4

I've always heard that and never bothered to find out what it really is because it's less fun that way. https://t.co/y03QeziGyQ

My kids listen to this on repeat to fall asleep and on road trips and I've tried so hard to hear anything else but I'm convinced that this is the intended lyric. https://t.co/FOA2YB5sfR

I’ve instantly no idea what the actual words are now and let me tell you I’ve watched this bastarding film 150+ times https://t.co/BbktsMQ5al

Be careful if joining in while children are within earshot.
Well… now that’s all I’m going to hear. And will undoubtedly get in trouble for singing it that way when volunteering. https://t.co/faOWNPijFy
