Tim Minchin - Prejudice

“Prejudice“ taken from Ready For This 2010 UK version, filmed at the HMV Hammersmith Apollo in 2009. “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’s important that we all respect That if these people should happen to choose To reclaim the word as their own It doesn’t meant the rest of you have a right to it’s use 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’ve had to live it An R and an E - even I am careful with it An I and an N - and in the end it will only offend Don’t want to have to spell it out again... “ You can find the rest of the lyrics here
