Dear McDonalds,
I am writing concerning the toy my 3 year old received with her happy meal today. It is a small music box with a recorded song by Chipmunk.
After bringing it home and listening to it and looking up the lyrics, I am absolutely appalled that a company as large and international as McDonalds would include such a thing as a "toy" inside a happy meal. I would think you would be able to find a better suited toy for children!
Have you seen the lyrics? I will include them below if I have space. The song Oopsy Daisy is inappropriate for young children. The content of love and relationships is well beyond their understanding. And are you aware that the song has a profane word *shit* in it. I'm not sure if it's on the recording b/c I didn't listen all the way through because I looked up the lyrics first. The lyrics for the song say why led a bird shit on me. Do you really think that's ok for my 3 year old to hear. Even if the word is beeped out of the song, it's still just PLAIN WRONG.
I am deeply offended and now have to explain to my 3 year old daughter why I'm throwing her toy in the rubbish bin.
I would hope in the future you would put more consideration into your happy meal toys. Otherwise we will not be eating in your chain in the future. There is a Burger King just around the corner after all.

I would love to hear your response to this concern and look forward to hearing from you soon.
