I have been stymied by a question from my seven-year-old regarding closed
captioning.

While watching The Simpsons episode "Simpson Tide", he noticed that in the
scene where they play The Village People singing "YMCA", the captioning did
not include the lyrics to the song. He asked me why that was, and I took a
stab at some sort of rights issue. But he then noticed that in the next
episode, "The Trouble With Trillions", Smithers sings a couple lines from
"Everything's Coming Up Roses", and those lines do appear. And I remember
seeing the lyrics from "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" at the end of
"Dumbbell Indemnity"

Could anyone help explain this further?

A slightly confused father.
