I can't figure it out either. It's rather tame compared to many other videos MTV used to broadcast.

This is what I found about it.

Despite being comedic in nature, the videos featured violence against parents and teachers, which placed the band under heavy criticism by conservative organizations.

If that is the case. Why wasn't I wanna rock banned?
