The humor escapes me. I hope that's a good sign......

The Muppets popularized it, but it's actually from a Swedish film.

I like that quote. It might become a facebook status today.
I was just discussing this video with a friend (or guy I know incase he takes offense to calling him a friend)
I think it's being viewed strictly at face value for what it is.
I find humor in it for several reasons:
The juxtaposition of the gravity of what's happening coupled with the levity of the muppets.
The childhood innocence paired up with the adult seriousness of the situation
To know the song one, or I, would assume they both shared a similar childhood open with possibilites and dreams and, as life would have it, they ended up on opposite sides of the spectrum in the cold, cruel reality.
Or maybe I'm reading too much into it.
