Prejudice - Tim Minchin
This is a song about prejudice And the language of prejudice And the power of the language It'scalled prejudice In our modern freespokensociety There is a word that we still hold taboo A word with a terrible history Of being used to abuse oppress and subdue Just six seemingly harmless letters Arranged in a way that will form a word With more power than the pieces of metal That are forged to make swords A couple of gs an r and an e an i and an n Just six little letters all jumbled together Have caused damage that we may never mend And it'simportant that we all respect That if these people should happen to choose To reclaim the word as their own It doesn'tmeant the rest of you have a right to it'suse So never under estimate The power that language imparts Sticks and stones may break your bones But words can break hearts A couple of gs jeez unless you'vehad to live it An r and an e even I am careful with it An i and an n in the end it will only offend Don'twant to have to spell it out again Yeah Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger So listen to me if you care for your health You won'tcall me ginger unless you'reginger yourself Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger When you are a ginger life is pretty hard Years of ritual bullying in the school yard Kids calling you ranga and Fanta pants No invitation to the high school dance But you get up and learn to hold your head up You try to keep your cool and not get het up But until the feeling of ill is truly let up Then the word is ours and ours alone Don'tyou know that Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger So if you call us ginge we just might come unhinged If you don'thave a fringe with at least a tinge of the ginge Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Now listen to me we'renot looking for sympathy Just because we'resensitive to UV Just cause we'repathetically pale We do alright with the females Yeah I like to ask the ladies 'roundfor ginger beer And soon they'rerunning their fingers through my ginger beard And dunking my ginger nuts into their ginger tea And asking can they call me ginge And I say I don'tthink that'sappropriate 'Cuzonly a ginger can call another ginger ginger Only a ginga can call another ginga ginga And all the ladies they agree it'sa fact Once you'vegone ginge you can'tgo back Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Yeah go ginge go you funky ginge Yeah funky ginger mofo Yeah you can call us bozo or fire truck You can even call us carrot top or blood nut Yeah you can call us match stick or tampon But f**kingwith the Gwordis just not on If you'rea gingerphobeand you don'tlike us We will stand up to the fight if you want to fight us But if you cut yourself you might catch gingivitis So maybe you should shut your funky mouth Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger So if you call us ginge can'twhinge if you'reinjured If you don'thave a tinge of the ginge in your minge Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger And you know my kids will always be clothed and fed 'Cospapa'sgonna be bringing home the gingerbread And they'llbe pretty smart because they'llbe wellreadAnd by read I mean read and the other kind of red Only a ginger can call another ginger ginger Only a ginga can call another ginga ginga Just like only a ninja can sneak up on another ninja Yeah only a ginger only a ginger Only a ginger yeah Are you all listening a I'mnot pointing the finger I just having a sing a I'mjust reminding ya That only a ginger can call another ginger Ginger Guitar score
