Gord's "May I" uses kid's games & phrases as a metaphor for the mental games that adults play when it comes to love,relationships and physical attraction. If you think about it,getting to an equal level with the opposite (or in some cases) same gender in these situations is just like a game. One false move or mistake and you lose or have to start over.

As for being in a kids movie,I think any of the 1970's live action Disney films would fit well. I'd pick,"Escape To Witch Mountain". A film I fondly recall but I also feel should be re-made for todays kids,seeing how it's now 30 years old this year. It's been me,later!

Remember, I've never heard the song, and I looked at the lyrics only once.
