about

Ever thought it's OK to use the word retard, as a joke, or as an insult?... well it's not! So Shut It! Especially you so called celebrities and entertainers (yes we're talking about you Vinnie Jones, Davina McCall, Frankie Boyle...). Words like Spaz and Retard have been absorbed into British and American culture thanks to crap Hollywood and TV producers. Boycott, complain, tell your mates it's not OK... Loads of people find these words hugely offensive, and this release is in support of The National Hate Crime Campaign.
With thanks to Dekay (www.camdencalling.org) for the inspired rap, and The Tings Tings for their support in this release. Peace, Respect! Heavy Load

lyrics

They call me ‘spaz’
They call me ‘crip’
They call me ‘mong’
They call me ‘special’
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name

They call me 'retard'
But I'm a riot
'Joey Deacon'
Always the same
That's not my name
That's not my name
That's not my name
