Are you implying that America is the only place where people speak English? Because that would be pretty stupid of you.

I think they're implying that English being the lingua-franca has made many monolingual English speakers forget that most of the world does not speak English as a first language, and those people are unlikely to be familiar with a children's rhyme written in English.
