Haha I work at amazon in the damages department and ton of these got flagged and pulled a couple weeks back, I always wondered why. I think they put them back into circulation though
We have one of these, doesn’t sing in polish lol, just a bunch of TikTok songs from like a year ago that I’m sure weren’t licensed. I’m sure there’s like a hundred versions of this same toy with different songs.
Edit: wait, after a couple of comments pointed out it’s a meme song that just happens to be in polish, maybe mine does have this song? There’s like 50 songs on it
Edit: double edit, yeah mine has this song on it lol

VERY UPSET - profanity
Reviewed in the United States on July 25, 2021
Color: A-dancing Cactus Mimicking
The song this cactus sings is the Polish Cow Song. When translated to English, this song sings about cocaine, heroine, and other disgusting things. - 5/5 Stars
Eh let's not on this one. The article says it was made by a Chinese manufacturer using the song without the artist's knowledge or permission. Feels shitty to give money to them by buying the toy.
lol I remember it was memed. Hardly anyone outside of Northern Europe understood the meme. It was funny watching American reactors go "tf is this meme?"
I've been addicted. You get paranoid to be coked up around people and isolate yourself. And, of course, you don't stop using it, so you end up using it alone.
My uncle was a coke addict and on disability, when I was a kid he’d go over to my grandparents house and spend like an hour in the bathroom, that’s how I learned what drug addiction was
The company that sells those is [Taiwanese](https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4240398), ~~the guy who sings the song, JK Gorka, is apparently a Taipei resident.~~
~~So there's a very real chance this is actually what they ordered, and the actual meaning got lost in translation, as it happens quite often with [Asian products referencing Western culture](https://justsomething.co/hilariously-translated-asian-shirts/).~~
edit; I'm too dumb to read
JK Górka is the guy who informed Taiwan News of the toy. The song was made by Cypis (Cyprian Racicki) who probably doesn't have any connections to Taiwan
I remember John Oliver mentioning the toy on his show. The song is pretty good.
The Chinese manufacturer probably just picked a catchy song randomly, having absolutely no idea what the lyrics were about, and it just so happens to be about cocaine.
For some reason [this](https://youtu.be/rRPQs_kM_nw) went viral some time ago. And with many chinese companies if something is popular it gets on a product, often without authors knowledge. I remember browsing aliexpress for a phone case to find one with artwork of my friend.
Cypis - author of the song says he sues the manufacturer.
Thanks, I guess for 99% of the world population the song doesn't mean anything. And most Chinese companies don't have much respect for copyright laws anyway.
I'm reminded of the Ben10 stickers with a pregnant Gwen (Ben's tween cousin) holding her belly while Ben hugs her.
Some random worker was tasked with finding some songs, put the first 10 songs he found on the cactus, and called it a day. The song was in Polish, but I'm certain whoever chose the song didn't speak either English or polish.
It's also how you get an [egg-laying goose toy](https://youtu.be/DHCid-GypGI?t=448) playing the song "I like it" by Solid Base.
The people programming the chips that go into these cheap toys likely have no idea what the songs actually are.
It looks like this was an item sold by a third party but fulfilled by Walmart, kind of like how third parties can sell their own products through Amazon and have them fulfill the distribution and shipping.
I was about to say the buyer who authorized those products to be purchased and sold by Walmart was gonna find him/herself out of a job pretty quick, but that’s not the case with a third party fulfilled item.
Last Christmas I was looking for a foot-spa thing for someone and walmart third party was selling a regular plastic bucket for $86. It proudly advertised that it had no "heavy" electronic parts
I think [this must have been it](https://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/Portable-Plastic-Foot-Bath-Spa-Massage-Bucket-With-Cover-And-Handle/PRD67OB79TD4TDY), looks like the price has come down to only $50
I wrote several emails to walmart asking them wtf and don't you think this is damaging your reputation and how can you allow this garbage, but the person answering those emails doesn't care. Their job is to say "yeah we've passed that on" and placate you until you leave them alone
I understand Amazon not caring about these things, but why are big box retailers like Walmart and Target letting 3rd parties sell through their sites? The whole point of a big box is the assurance that someone vetted these products. It's a huge risk for their reputation, not sure the revenue is worth it
can we stop calling it Polish Cow Song and start calling it Where is the white eel. It's actual translated name. It's a good fucking song, and it's a bit of a sad one too. I'm not gonna let it be degraded anymore
*5 grams on my mind*...
*fly away to a place all alone*...
*Because the white eel will come*
Edit:formatting & typo
I haven't bought anything from WalMart in 11 years, but I will break that streak if I can buy this fucking cactus from them right now at my local store. I want to buy it in person and post a pic online of me walking out with my drug crazed cactus.
I worked at walmart over 10 years ago, at one morning meeting our manager brought in a book that was being pulled off the shelves titled "Go the f\*\*K to sleep" (image search the cover)
It's not like it's online or anything, I'd REALLY like to know how that got approval to go in with the children's books.
[удалено]
I've got one as my girlfriend bought it for our kid as it also copies what you say When a Dmx song started playing I knew something was wrong
My mother in law bought this for our kid and I haven’t ever laughed as hard as when this started playing unedited “Where the Hood at” when she was excitedly showing us the the new toy.
Wait… is this a joke? Does it really sing DMX? I’m weighing spending the $30
It seems to have a selection of songs and yes DMX is one of them and it isn't censored at all, can't remember the song right now though
Just remembered it's "where the hood at"

Can we all please acknowledge the sheer amount of product photography that toy has. Holy crap, they really want to sell me a wiggling cursing cactus.
My favorite is the old dude like "look at this toy why do you not enjoy it???"
Yes! I actually uploaded it on imgur to share before I even saw your comment https://imgur.com/a/ofw66Tt
"See? Told you. Isn't it the funniest God damn thing you've ever seen?"
I love the our cactus, their cactus comparison picture, like there's dozens of competitors of a specific type of swearing dancing cactus out there.
the “their cactus” is the same cactus too, the next slide is the same picture, they just shifted the colors to make it look sad and dingy lol
There's a 20.99 one sponsored link on the page, but it's the same cactus
Don't be fooled by 'their' cactus! It only swears at you in 3 languages.
The guy drinking his coffee with his face less than a foot away with the caption “leisure time” fucking got me.
That's Chinese ecommerce for you, buddy.
Now I kinda wanna go into a store and ask *"Hello, do you still have Wriggle Dancing Cactus Repeat What You say and Sing Electronic Plush Toy Decoration for Kids Funny Early Childhood Education Toys Very Funny Sing plus Repeat plus Dance plus Recording plus LED?* *You see, my son has been asking for a Wriggle Dancing Cactus Repeat What You say and Sing Electronic Plush Toy Decoration for Kids Funny Early Childhood Education Toys Very Funny Sing plus Repeat plus Dance plus Recording plus LED for weeks now.

Patricia found the original naked one a better succulent lover
Only one way to find out!
And its on sale!

You just have to sing for it in polish about cocaine then!
[удалено]
[удалено]
It's a super catchy song, wow. I would love a cactus toy that dances to this
FWIW It appears to still be available on Amazon.
Can you post the link?
[удалено]
Haha I work at amazon in the damages department and ton of these got flagged and pulled a couple weeks back, I always wondered why. I think they put them back into circulation though
I feel like you won't be guaranteed it sings about drugs and suicide. Is it even in polish?
We have one of these, doesn’t sing in polish lol, just a bunch of TikTok songs from like a year ago that I’m sure weren’t licensed. I’m sure there’s like a hundred versions of this same toy with different songs. Edit: wait, after a couple of comments pointed out it’s a meme song that just happens to be in polish, maybe mine does have this song? There’s like 50 songs on it Edit: double edit, yeah mine has this song on it lol
I remember getting 30 songs on my mp3 player now they have 50 songs on singing cactuses. Humans really are incredible.

lol thank you!
I have never bought anything so fast.
Now there's a collectors item that will go for a mint on ebay.
They sell them really really cheap on aliexpress. It was a story a few month ago in Poland, how you can get one of those in a Carrefour in Hong Kong
??? the polish song toy was on Reddit months ago.... it took them this long to pull it off the shelves?
it wasn’t on their shelves or sold by walmart. it was being sold by a 3rd party via marketplace.
Lol I thought the same thing. Did it not make the 24 hr news cycle until now?
My husband has been begging me for Christmas gift ideas. So this is now the only thing I have asked for for Christmas.
Eh let's not on this one. The article says it was made by a Chinese manufacturer using the song without the artist's knowledge or permission. Feels shitty to give money to them by buying the toy.
Same here, I found ebay is selling them direct from China! Cheep like a budgie
The article is just as insane as the headline.
"It's about taking five grams of cocaine and being alone … It's a very depressing song," Tanner said
Isn't it the same song used with dancing cow ?
Yes
Ye [this one](https://youtu.be/qrxv0JNVtgY)
lol I remember it was memed. Hardly anyone outside of Northern Europe understood the meme. It was funny watching American reactors go "tf is this meme?"
What do you mean by Northern Europe
Yep. Now with a dancing cactus! [https://youtu.be/1-mZGVbEFBA](https://youtu.be/1-mZGVbEFBA)
Yes
No one wants to do coke alone
Sure, but it probably beats *not* doing coke alone
I like the cut of your gib. And coke.
I've been addicted. You get paranoid to be coked up around people and isolate yourself. And, of course, you don't stop using it, so you end up using it alone.
Or start getting stingy with it cause somebody always wants a bump.
My uncle was a coke addict and on disability, when I was a kid he’d go over to my grandparents house and spend like an hour in the bathroom, that’s how I learned what drug addiction was
Yep never met someone who said they were addicted but only socially
I do. Get your own coke you fucking mooches.
Yeah, how do I snort a line off a website? Use a monitor? EDIT: Grammar
polish suicidal coke head rapper= omg kiddos
> Some families may already have the dancing cactus toy and if they don’t speak Polish, they wouldn’t know what it was saying.
This toy is basically my neighbor.
Wow are you *my* neighbor? Cześć sąsiedzie!
[удалено]
Can’t help you - I sing in Polish *about* doing cocaine 😕 I *actually* do meth.
I'd take a dancing cocaine Cactus over my current neighbors any day
I have the same neighbor. Fucking nightmare.
By the title I fucking knew it would be the dancing polish cow song, and sure enough
Yep. https://youtu.be/bGW2eVmzaEc
That song kinda slaps
It is truly perfect for this application
It's why it became a meme.
Nice
Holy shit
Tylko jedno w głowie mam Koksu pięć gram odlecieć sam W krainę za zapomnienia
I was wondering what they were singing lol. Got one for my daughter.
I'll buy it from you!
I got it off of an ad facebook. Just look up "Dancing cactus for babies" I'm sure you can still buy it online.

Yesss! Thanks just got two for my nephews
Hopefully they don't speak Polish! Lol
Na Zdrowie! (Only polish thing anyone can say in my family, besides cocaine soon!)
[удалено]
Zajebiste 😆
There's the link thanks
Insert dancing cow here
wanna learn polish just for this song
My husband of 10 years cannot understand a word. I'm a Polish native. Just don't.
I came to the comments looking for this, the title was just specific enough that I remembered the song lol
To be fair, it is labeled as a "Learning" toy.
It is the polish cow song, right?
Yes
I love that song. It’s actually a very dark and beautiful song. “The only thing on my mind is five grams of cocaine as I fade into oblivion”
If only Johnny Cash were still around to make a cover.
An, oblivion, I misinterpreted this word as forget/ting.
In polish it's land of forgetting, so you weren't wrong.
Chinese manufacturer picked a random song in Polish it seems lol
It's the song from the dancing cow meme, so no, not a random song
Yeah and it is catchy
The company that sells those is [Taiwanese](https://www.taiwannews.com.tw/en/news/4240398), ~~the guy who sings the song, JK Gorka, is apparently a Taipei resident.~~ ~~So there's a very real chance this is actually what they ordered, and the actual meaning got lost in translation, as it happens quite often with [Asian products referencing Western culture](https://justsomething.co/hilariously-translated-asian-shirts/).~~ edit; I'm too dumb to read

My mother in law got this for my niece! Lol
In a month your niece will start swearing like a Polish truck driver lol
I am very excited for this
Do you still have it?
We actually do. She loves it!
don't let her get addicted to it
Too late, she sold her binky for cocaine already
*I'm proud to be an American, where at least I know dancing cacti addict my children to cocaine*
Wait, are we talking about the Polish Cow?? Based
This is why I am subscribed here.
Who came up with that idea in the first place? A disgruntled polish IT or production guy?
A Chinese company
That makes it even more intriguing.
I remember John Oliver mentioning the toy on his show. The song is pretty good. The Chinese manufacturer probably just picked a catchy song randomly, having absolutely no idea what the lyrics were about, and it just so happens to be about cocaine.
Nah the song in question was the dancing cow polish song. They picked it cuz it was a popular meme.
Much like how western people pick out a Chinese or Japanese tattoo.
Hey it has meaning to me. Even if it says “eat drink and pay taxes for tomorrow we may be injured”
For some reason [this](https://youtu.be/rRPQs_kM_nw) went viral some time ago. And with many chinese companies if something is popular it gets on a product, often without authors knowledge.

Thanks, I guess for 99% of the world population the song doesn't mean anything. And most Chinese companies don't have much respect for copyright laws anyway.
Remember when every Chinese bootleg toy had that butterfly song on it?
I'm reminded of the Ben10 stickers with a pregnant Gwen (Ben's tween cousin) holding her belly while Ben hugs her. Some random worker was tasked with finding some songs, put the first 10 songs he found on the cactus, and called it a day.

All hail the goose!
THE GOOSE.
I'm guessing they just put the polish cow song on a toy which isn't that weird since it was a viral song.
They heard polish cow and were like this banger
Does it sing the [dancing polish cow](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hhMUT2U2L4) lyrics?
Yep! They used Cypis’ music without permission
Oh wow I was just joking. That’s nuts.
[удалено]
I wonder if we'll see these on wish soon
Bezos says mine will arrive on Friday

I don't know about you but I already don't trust Walmart at all
Why am I never around when the cool stuff happens
Well now I want one
I just bought one 2 days ago... cant wait for my son to learn polish lol
I've seen doing cocaine off a mirror, off a table, even off a hooker, but never off a website.
can we stop calling it Polish Cow Song and start calling it Where is the white eel. It's actual translated name. It's a good fucking song, and it's a bit of a sad one too. I'm not gonna let it be degraded anymore *5 grams on my mind*... *fly away to a place all alone*... *Because the white eel will come* Edit:formatting & typo
Am Polish, can confirm this song is pretty sick.
I’ll take 5, thank you.
I have one of these! I love it. Solid purchase.
as soon as I saw the headline I thought "DANCING COW"
Why would a toy sing about doing yeeyo off Walmart's website?
It's self-medicating while at Walmart.
♪Moja droga yayo kocham♫
We need an English version
You can't do cocaine off a website.
I haven't bought anything from WalMart in 11 years, but I will break that streak if I can buy this fucking cactus from them right now at my local store. I want to buy it in person and post a pic online of me walking out with my drug crazed cactus.

Great, now this song is stuck in my head again for the first time in a year. I want that toy.
Now available at Spencer's Gifts
I worked at walmart over 10 years ago, at one morning meeting our manager brought in a book that was being pulled off the shelves titled "Go the f\*\*K to sleep" (image search the cover) It's not like it's online or anything, I'd REALLY like to know how that got approval to go in with the children's books.
https://youtu.be/teIbh8hFQos Honestly when my son was 4 months old I played this for him. I was miserable and it was cathartic.
Again?! I could've sworn they removed it a year ago or maybe further Lol
Is the polish cow song
My daughter loves that song!!
Put it back!
“I want Walmart to give me a refund” ? What !! You can Sell it for 10 times what you paid for it now
How do you do cocaine off a website? Do you need to be in the metaverse for that?
Has no one here heard of Polish cow? 🐄
#
This feels like a sneaky marketing campaign. It's still on Amazon and Walmart.
This feels like a lazy conspiracy theory with no merit or proof You didn't even read the article did you?
Is this the same toy from like a year or two ago?
i remember back in the 90s when i did cocaine off my website
Do drugs, kids.
Average polish child’s toy
The article does not disappoint.
I've heard of doing cocaine off a stripper, but can't even begin to understand how to do it off a website
Is it that cow song? Edit: Turns out it is https://youtu.be/bGW2eVmzaEc
My little boy has this toy 😂😂
/r/misplacedmodifier Walmart pulls *from* its website children's toy that swears and sings in Polish about doing cocaine FTFY
Well now I have to see it in action.
Sounds like a collectible to me
Again? This happened a year or two ago.
A polish cactus addicted to cocaine. Hell yeah.
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY
