The thing I always found slightly creepy about Bubblegum was that it seemed to be aimed at pre-teens, yet the lyrics often contained themes of teenage romance, with lots of references to kissing. "Yummy yummy yummy" sounds like something a five-year-old would sing, yet there is mention of hugging, kissing and holding. Let the kids have a childhood, I say. They'll grow up soon enough.
