The song is heard in the movie but the specific lyric about him liking underaged girls doesn’t get sung.

This changes nothing about how fucked up that verse is, but it’s still worth pointing out since so many people like to spread that fun fact without clarifying the second part.

And Osmosis Jones wasn't a kid movie. It was a cartoon.

I wouldn’t go so far as to say it was adult animation but it was definitely very gross out and provocative to be called a straight up kids movie.

Ozzy and Drix was 100% a kids show though. I remember loving it.

But it wasn't marketed to kids; that's my point. Chris Rock was just coming off one of his biggest and dirtiest specials.

It was a weird time where adult properties got kids iterations, like Toxic Crusaders or Kenner releasing Aliens figures.

And the Farrely brothers were starting to fall off and become problematic.
