Approach at your own risk.

For the record, I

A. now hate everyone involved with this song

B. find it to be completely typical for 90% of anything semi-English that gets blasted out of the windows as cars go through my neighborhood

C. Would not censor it, but -- no matter how uncomfortable it makes you -- should your daughter be listening to it, I'd give serious thought to sitting down with her and the lyric sheet, then going over what all of it means. It's not going to be pleasant and she'll not only hate you for it, she won't stop being humiliated for about three years. But if you're worried that she's getting the wrong message, you have to establish just what you feel that message is.

For the record, I feel it's focused on a man trying to get a woman to cheat. Get away from your lame boyfriend: I'll abuse you like I feel you should be abused. There's some unpleasant images here suggesting how he'll treat her, starting with the hair pulling and moving on from there. The sexual ones are neither subtle nor kind. But to me, based on the lyrics, it's more about a virtual order to infidelity made by an abusive egotist than it is rape.

However, I haven't watched the video yet.

And I am now rather reluctant to do so.

ETA: Okay, I now have a few words for the rated version of the video. Starting with 'cheap', 'poorly-shot', 'undirected', 'boring', and to finish off, 'self-indulgent crap'.

On the other hand, I'm sure it's a really great advertisement for AutoTune.
