You know how in good musicals the songs occur naturally at moments of heightened emotion, while advancing the plot... and then there are films that are based on stories that were not originally musicals, but someone decided to ram musical numbers into them because it might make some money... which is how you end up pausing the ramp up to the devastating finale of Charlotte's Web, by having a rat sing about eating trash.
A Veritable Smorgasbord from Charlotte’s Web
Performed by Paul Lynde
Written by the Sherman brothers.
(This film was not particularly successful when it came out, but it became pretty popular years later when it was released on VHS)
