A version used on the CBeebies channel was altered so rather than
"couldn't put Humpty together again" all the King's horses "made Humpty
happy again".
Of course, this song is also an offensively stereotypical portrait of British person of egg descent, so it should be banned altogether instead of trying to whitewash it.
Bonus-track: politically correct Red Riding Hood, politically correct Peter & the Wolf.

Ну, разница между этой и, например, этой тоже показательно. В первой черная овца блеет о том, что у нее нет шерсти для мальчика, который живет в переулке, а во второй - что у нее есть для него шерсть. Баудлеризация старше политкорректности.
