This a song about prejudice |
| [00:18.160] |
The language of prejudice |
| [00:27.570] |
And the power of the language of prejudice |
| [00:39.620] |
It's called PREJUDICE! |
| [00:53.020] |
In our modern free-spoken society |
| [00:57.300] |
There is a word that we still hold taboo |
| [01:02.380] |
A word with a terrible history |
| [01:05.270] |
Of being used to abuse, oppress and subdue |
| [01:10.450] |
Just six seemingly harmless letters |
| [01:14.140] |
Arranged in a way that will form a word |
| [01:17.720] |
With more power than the pieces of metal |
| [01:20.960] |
That are forged to make swords |
| [01:27.140] |
A couple of Gs, an R and an E, an I and an N |
| [01:35.400] |
Just six little letters all jumbled together |
| [01:39.730] |
Have caused damage that we may never mend |
| [01:44.360] |
And it's important that we all respect |
| [01:48.040] |
That if these people should happen to choose |
| [01:51.120] |
To reclaim the word as their own |
| [01:54.460] |
It doesn't meant the rest of you have a right to it's use |
| [01:58.490] |
So never under estimate |
| [02:03.180] |
The power that language imparts |
| [02:06.160] |
Sticks and stones may break your bones |
| [02:09.800] |
But words can break hearts |
| [02:12.780] |
A couple of Gs - jeez unless you've had to live it |
| [02:16.020] |
An R and an E - even I am careful with it |
| [02:19.700] |
An I and an N - and in the end it will only offend |
| [02:23.690] |
Don't want to have to spell it out again... |
| [02:40.980] |
Yeah |
| [02:46.600] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [02:52.480] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [02:58.320] |
So listen to me if you care for your health |
| [03:01.150] |
You won't call me ginger 'less you're ginger yourself |
| [03:04.860] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [03:10.230] |
When you are a ginger life is pretty hard |
| [03:13.120] |
Years of ritual bullying in the school yard |
| [03:16.260] |
Kids calling you Ranga and Fanta Pants |
| [03:19.050] |
No invitation to the high school dance |
| [03:22.090] |
But you get up and learn to hold your head up |
| [03:24.720] |
You try to keep your cool and not get het up |
| [03:27.860] |
But until the feeling of I'll is truly let up |
| [03:30.850] |
Then the word is ours and ours alone |
| [03:33.000] |
Don't you know that... |
| [03:34.050] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [03:40.030] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [03:45.900] |
So if you call us ginge we just might come unhinged |
| [03:48.650] |
If you don't have a fringe with at least a tinge of the ginge in it |
| [03:51.740] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [03:57.470] |
Now listen to me, we're not looking for sympathy |
| [04:00.450] |
Just because we're sensitive to UV |
| [04:04.700] |
Just 'cause we're pathetically pale |
| [04:08.140] |
We do alright with the females |
| [04:11.280] |
Yeah I like to ask the ladies 'round for ginger beer |
| [04:14.080] |
And soon they're running their fingers through my ginger beard |
| [04:17.070] |
And dunking my ginger nuts into their ginger tea |
| [04:21.480] |
And asking if they can call me ginge |
| [04:23.270] |
And I say, "I don't think that's appropriate!" |
| [04:25.760] |
Cos only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [04:31.550] |
Only a ginga can call another ginga, ginga |
| [04:37.370] |
And all the ladies, they agree it's a fact |
| [04:40.150] |
Once you've gone ginge, she can't go back |
| [04:43.250] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [04:46.170] |
Yeah go ginge, go you funky ginge |
| [04:54.070] |
Yeah, funky ginger mofo |
| [05:01.590] |
Yeah, you can call us bozo or fire truck |
| [05:06.030] |
You can even call us carrot top of blood nut |
| [05:10.750] |
Yeah, you can call us match stick or tampon |
| [05:14.000] |
tampon |
| [05:23.720] |
But ****ing with the G-word is just not on |
| [05:26.550] |
If you're a ginger-phobe and you don't like us |
| [05:29.340] |
We will stand up to the fight if you want to fight us |
| [05:32.130] |
But if you cut yourself you might catch gingivitis |
| [05:35.310] |
So maybe you should shut your funky mouth |
| [05:38.300] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [05:44.030] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [05:49.660] |
So if you call us ginge you can't whinge if your injured |
| [05:52.730] |
If you don't have a tinge of the ginge in your minge |
| [05:56.310] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [06:01.490] |
And you know my kids will always be clothed and fed |
| [06:04.720] |
Cos Papa's gonna be bringing home the gingerbread |
| [06:07.460] |
And they'll be pretty smart because they'll be well-read |
| [06:10.460] |
And by "read" “ |
| [06:11.450] |
I mean "read" and the other kind of "red", woo! |
| [06:13.540] |
Only a ginger can call another ginger, ginger |
| [06:19.210] |
Only a ginga can call another ginga, ginga |
| [06:24.590] |
Just like only a ninja can sneak up on another ninja |
| [06:31.120] |
Yeah, only a ginger, only a ginger, only a ginger, yeah |
| [06:36.370] |
Are you all listening-a |
| [06:37.520] |
I'm not pointing the finger |
| [06:38.910] |
I just happen to sing-a |
| [06:40.400] |
I'm just remindin' ya |
| [06:46.130] |
That only a ginger can call another ginger... |
| [06:50.610] |
Ginger |
