Children sound clip
The sound recording of 'children in schoolyard' was originally available on a commercially available double LP record set (unknown origin) of sound effects and loops used in radio, television, and movies. Proper attribution of the source of the audio clip was not made, a potential violation of copyright as the use of sound effect recordings sometimes stipulate "Licensed free for non-commercial public performance or theatrical presentation and home use. Re-recording or duplicaton is strictly forbidden." The sound recording is available for purchase from Soundstorm Motion Picture Sound Library (https://www.sound-ideas.com/Product/376/Soundstorm-Sound-Effects-Library) as part of an aggregation and from other sources online as a single audio track (https://retired.sounddogs.com/sound-effects/backgrounds-playground-exterior-medium-228065).

The sound clip at the beginning with children talking...It seems like I hear it everywhere. I don't think it's just from that movie. I once heard it during an episode of Full House...the one where the family rebuilds a playground after it was vandalized. However, this may have been released before or after the song was released.

Is it just a common sound byte on keyboards/snythesizers, maybe? I don't know, but I thought it seemed interesting. 24.13.187.147 04:06, 19 December 2006 (UTC)

Same sound clip can be heard in a R.L. Stine TV special, "The Haunted Mask". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Haunted_Mask_(TV_special). While the character Carly Beth and her friend are trick or treating, the same tinkertrain sound byte can be heard in the background. This show aired in 1995. The song was produced in 1991. I would assume this is a standard kid playing sound byte. Evan Geno 02:29, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

The clip came from the movie "Feeling Minnesota" at approximately 11:51. You may need to turn your television up to hear the kids talking. Brentfoster77 (talk) 00:23, 8 December 2017 (UTC)

It's in Kill Bill Vol. 1 at around 16:00, when Kiddo is driving away from Vernita Green's house. M. P. 22:43, 28 October 2018 (UTC)

Heard in Netflix's The Punisher, S2E4 at 25:28, during a flashback sequence where the characters are watching a kids' baseball game. --Overfloater (talk) 06:39, 27 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I just heard the clip of the children playing on an episode of Highway to Heaven. The episode is about a girl who is dying of cancer,and she wants to help endangered dolphins. The kids can be heard just after they arrive at their assignment. 2601:588:8100:1C30:D126:4907:998:7E29 (talk) 10:48, 27 April 2023 (UTC)

in the lyrics (and video) there is no indication that a molestation or for that matter a rape, actually takes place
The most he says is "Little angel come and sit upon my knee" For people to extrapolate this to child rape is wrong and slanderous. Ozzy Osbourne is a family man with no arrests or convictions for child abuse. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.121.152.162 (talk) 02:25, 26 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Of course Ozzy Osbourne is a family man and a nice guy. But the song clearly has allusions to child abuse/kidnapping, especially with the line "Would you like some sweeties, little girl?". But that doesn't mean that he can't write about subjects like this. Look at Janie's Got a Gun by Aerosmith. Just cause musicians write about taboo subjects, doensn't make them bad people. 24.14.105.100 (talk) 06:18, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Ozzy said very plainly in an interview that this song is NOT about child abuse. Sophielily2015 (talk) 03:20, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
