I may have found an attribution for the kamikaze version. According to this old
USENET thread (let's play a game of hey, I recognize those people) the lyrics provided with the Disney Theme Park Sing-Along said "kamikaze." But nobody seems to give that much credence.
The thread also offers the Under New Management equivalent line from Florida:
"The boys in the back are on the cause
And that's because they are macaws"
So it looks like the new managers decided on a lyric that makes more sense. Which automatically makes "claws" better.
