about

Inspired by the hysteric targeting of various people on social media
In support of Dave Chapelle
In support of common sense
In support of men and women being different

lyrics

No more him
No more her
Nome Miss
No more Sir
Blow a kiss
Make a stir
Make a wish
All a blur
And your right
Has been revoked
To laugh
And to joke
Burning chapels
Down in smoke
You must be woke
Can’t say this
Can’t say that
People hate
They don’t chat
People break
People crack
Ignorant bliss
Don’t think back
Remember the bad
Forget the good
Shoot the sad
Guess they would
Tear out the pages
Burn the books
Big tech crooks
Hung on hooks

Just another John Doe
Sitting in the same row
Wish away the pain go
Give us back the rainbow
White privilege in a Glasgow slum
A dole queue and a bacon bun
Government we can take them on
All be dead when the war has been won
I wanna swap my legs for my arms
WIth legs on my shoulders I’d have much more charm
Accept my choice
Don’t dare to make fun
Employ me așa typist
You legaphobe scum

I woke up to the woke
Now people can no longer joke
Humanity must be broke
The future holds no hope
With a chip in it’s brain
It’s DNA rearranged
It looks about the same
Homo Novus will reign
No more him
No more her
Nome Miss
No more Sir
Blow a kiss
Make a stir
Make a wish
All a blur
