The Polish-Canadian copycat lady is just craving attention…
> The song is by Polish Rapper Cypis, who is reportedly unaware his song was used by the Chinese manufacturer of the children’s toy.

>The Polish artist said he planned to take legal action against the Chinese company for using his song without permission.
I wonder how they planned to work this? Just do a fly-by-night — vanish and go out of business after a single toy? Rely on it being difficult to enforce IP laws in China?
For the context, the song [Cypis – Gdzie jest biały węgorz ? (Zejście)
](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qrxv0JNVtgY) was a popular trend on TikTok, where it gained a lot of traction (I can’t link it on this subreddit). The lyrics are depressing, but if you listen to it without knowing the language it sounds pretty nice.
For example “[Dancing Polish Cow 10 Hours](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rRPQs_kM_nw)” on YouTube (uploaded in October, 2020), featuring a repeating part of the song, has 20 million views.

That doesn’t mean it’s an inappropriate toy.
The second season of “The Wire” does the same, and it’s also the best season.
Disappointed it wasn’t a dancing cow.
That’s hilarious. For any Polish speakers, [here’s](https://youtube.com/watch?v=isOleW8EEFY) the cactus doing its thing.
For English speakers, [here’s](https://youtube.com/watch?v=OyDyOweu-PA) the song with translated lyrics.
😂
Ah, tha famous polish cacti.
lol
Walmart should just send over the entire shipment to Poland. They’ll be should out in a week. I’d buy it. The song slaps.
[This has made the news in July](https://www.thefirstnews.com/article/horrified-mum-finds-dancing-cactus-toy-swearing-and-rapping-about-cocaine-in-polish-23073) after a Polish lady bought the toy in a supermarket in Taiwan. Then, the toy started to sell well in Poland via AliExpress.

The [dancing cactus toy](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLNCC8mA-gE) is just a variation on the [dancing flower toy](https://youtu.be/6qYbdczgYZc) that’s pretty old.
Racist !
It’s PC gone mad innit?
