Bibbidi-bobbi-di-Boo

As Rama and I were exiting our building lobby, we were singing The Magic Song from the 1950 Cinderella:

Rama and Me, chorus: Salagadoola Michi Kaboola bibbi-di bobbi-diboo. Put them together and what have you got? Bibbidi bobbidi boo!

Big Black Guy who overheard: That's an interesting language!

Me: It's Disney.

Toronto is home to virtually all the world's culture groups and where more than 100 languages and dialects are spoken. Amusing how residents can never assume that what they're hearing is acually just simple nonsense.
