I disagree. The commercial isn't targeted at kids...it's targeted to 25-35 year old parents. If you listen to what they say, it's a promo where if an adult buys a value meal, they get a kids meal for cheap. Kids won't "get" the baby-got-back reference, or probably even pick up on the sponge bob tie in because it's not too visually integrated, but parents my age (30) will. I actually think the lyrics are really funny..."Sponge Bob I wanna get wit' ya, cuz you're makin' me rich'a!" They're actually mocking the product placements usually found in kids meals.
