Of course it is a bawdy song. It is a fun song. I seriously doubt Tommy Djilas would suggest Marcellus sing it if it were not. I also seriously doubt he would suggest Marcellus sing this revised nonsense. (then again, it has a good beat and you can dance to it:) )

They might as well censor the "I was drunk last night, dear Mother", that little Tootie sings in the movie "Meet Me In St. Louis" for similar reasons. "Shipoopi" is meant to be bawdy, fun and suggestive. Another case of the new production being afraid of the GOOBOs (those getting off on being offended). Almost like a new updated Production Code from 1930s movies is somehow censoring classic works.
