I think they should have Liat sing at least one verse of it if it's a Bloody Mary song, even if Bloody Mary is the girl for me.

Ya got something against charm?

I could be wrong, but I think this song does have an important function within the show.
It serves as Bloody Mary seduction of Cable into a relationship with her young daughter in order to secure boht her own and her daughter's future.

Which part is considered un-PC?
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,
Talk about things you'd like to do.
You got to have a dream,
If you don't have a dream,
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about the moon floatin' in the sky
Lookin' at a lily on the lake;
Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly.
Makin' all the music he can make.
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,
Talk about things you'd like to do.
You got to have a dream,
If you don't have a dream,
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about a star lookin' like a toy
Peekin' through the branches of a tree;
Talk about the girl, talk about the boy
Countin' all the ripples on the sea.
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,
Talk about things you'd like to do.
You got to have a dream,
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?
Talk about the boy sayin' to the girl:
"Golly, baby, I'm a lucky cuss"
Talk about the girl sayin' to the boy:
"You an' me is lucky to be us!"
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,
Talk about things you'd like to do.
You got to have a dream,
If you don't have a dream
How you gonna have a dream come true?
If you don't talk happy,
And you never have dream,
Then you'll never have a dream come true!
It's good idea, you like?
Are you sure you don't mean You Have To Be Taught?
Happy talk, keep talkin' happy talk,
Talk about things you'd like to do.

If you don't have a dream,

Lookin' at a lily on the lake;
Talk about a bird learnin' how to fly.
Makin' all the music he can make.

my absolute favorite song in the show!

nomdeplume: im baffled by this thread:
(1) why would you start a new thread, when you could have just posted to the thread you linked to/
(2) the poster in the other thread was just offering an opinion -- there is no creditable source for what's really just his/her speculation.
good weed or something?

You baffle easily, whatever2.
This thread is asking LCT to keep the original "as is" and not make changes a la recent production of Flower Drum Song.
