She knows that she can't be a villain without a hero to stop her. The song is about the fairy godmother herself, as she is fully aware the story is reaching its climax and she is about to be defeated, so she decides to go out as flashy as possible.

      Yes, the story of Moses originated in the Jewish tradition, but Christianity itself also spawned from Judaism. The two religions are tied to each other, even if they don’t agree with one another, and as such they share a lot of history from before the split, such as the story of Moses.

How Bad Can I Be, has his descent as a result of his success blinding him to the damage he's causing and being in denial that his business practice was more harmful than it was helpful. But Biggering has it showing that HE ACTUALLY SEES the damage he's causing, but he keeps going because the _MORE successful he gets_ the _MORE he feels that he deserves_ and never gives the damage he causes a second thought because _he's too focused on himself, his success, and what he wants to care about any one else_

      How Bad Can I Be is their way of trying to make companies like themselves look sympathetic. It's the excuse that they always use. "Oh, I didn't know that we were harming the environment with our factories" "We didn't know that lead paint on children toys would poison the kids" "We didn't know that the mothers in africa would be unknowingly starving their children because of the way our product was presented to them. In most cases, they do know but keep going and brushing the bad consequences under the rug and Biggering shows us both that AND why they do it in the first place.
      Apparently the government (the american one? i'm not too sure, I could be wrong here) are planning to pour oil in the arctic ocean. Do they know how bad that is? Yes. Do they care? No. Why? Biggering. But with How Bad Can I Be, they decide to lie to us and say "No no no, they did NOT know about the CLEAR amount of damage that they're causing.

    I heard that a possible reason that "Biggering" was canned in lieu of the cheesier song "How Bad Could I Be" is because "Biggering" actually revealed the greed and pride of big corporations and that illuminations purposefully did not want to reveal that to the children audience. They also feared that the dark message of the song would upset their target children audience and they would loose money in the process. This forced the studio to prioritize a more childish and safer plot that would grab children's attention more easily, with a cheesy villain that does not accurately portray the main themes of the original book. This includes counterintuitive and hyper focused children advertising for the lorax movie, including.... car commercials?! How backwards can you be to advertise a car for the Lorax?! All of this so that Illuminations can appeal to children to make more profits. Ironically, the Lorax movie that we got is shockingly the best representation of this corporate greed and pride outlined in "Biggering": the pride in people leading to greedy actions, with Illumination taking away a deep and meaningful plot that children needed to learn and instead showed a hollow, corporate approved children's movie

When you make your characters less human, you suck out the humanity, meaning people are less likely to see what they can become.

The original song painted corporations in too harsh of a light and exposed the dark underbelly of the corporate world; the corporations funding the movie didn't like it, so they had the writers tweak the lyrics and insert them into a colorful pop song to play down the evils of corporations... though in a way, 'How Bad Can I Be?' reveals exactly how corporations get away with their crimes by hiding behind a guise of being proactive and well-intentioned.

In Hellfire it was Frollo blaming his actions on Esmarelda, and in How Bad Can I Be, The Once-ler is making excuses for his unsustainable business practices by saying "Hey I donate what is basically pocket change to charity". But the sad is thing is he believes his own lies that he isn't bad and doesn't see the error of his ways until after he cuts down the last tree.

      I don't mind it either. As Josh says it easy to blame the Once-ler's destruction on carelessness and I think that might have been the idea. The Once-ler does make a point in the original story about why he doesn't shut down or downsize his operations. His workers have to put food on the table and they can't do that if he does something that compromises his business. I always viewed the message of the Lorax of being one about sustainable growth i.e. planting additional trees for every tree you cut down. The song from the final film was high-lighting that at first, he wasn't really hurting anyone. He just didn't realize he needed to replinish the supploy of trees for his business until it was too late. He was never truly evil in the story as you can tell by the fact he has regretted his actions ever since that last tree fell.

The scene would then change to the inside of the Once-ler's house, still not showing his face, where he picks up a broken guitar and starts to play it. Through some miracle, it still sounds good and then it leads into "Biggering"...

    I think "How bad can I be" is still a good song that picks on corporations for their lame excuses and justifications for the terrible actions they choose to take, but "Biggering" is just so much more impactful and its message is much more broad.

Granted it is not about the environment, but the message as well as the focus of what the song was actually going for... just chills! Also, I would recommend The Sin Squad youtube video on this song and how it could have made the film so much more impactful as well as possible reasons as to why it was cut. But good list!
