Prejudice

Am
In our modern free spoken society
            G
There is a word that we still hold 
taboo
   F                             
A word with a terrible history of 
        E
being used to abuse oppress and 
subdue
Am                                
Just six seemingly harmless 
     G
letters arranged in a way that will 
form a word
            F                      
With more power than the pieces of 
                 E
metal that are forged to make swords
            F               G     
A couple of G's an R and an E an I
       Am
 and an N

                  F                
Just six little letters all jumbled
    G                   E
 together have caused damage that we
 may never mend
Am                           
And it's important that we all 
               G
respect that if these people should 
happen to choose to
F                              
Reclaim the word as their own it 
           E
doesn't mean the rest of you have a 
right to it's use
Am                           G
So never under estimate the power 
that language imparts
F                              
Sticks and stones may break your 
             E
bones but words can break hearts
                 F              
A couple of G's; geez unless you 
have had to live it, an R and an E; 
  G
even I am careful with it
            Am                     
An I and an aNd in the end it will 
 G                 F
only offend don't want to have to 
spell
        E
it out again

( Am  G  F  E  G  Am ) (2x)

Yeah

Am            G             
Only a ginger can call another 
            F     E  G

Only a ginger can call another

     G                           
You wont call me ginger less your 
   E
ginger yourself
Am            G             
Only a ginger can call another 
            F     E  G
ginger ginger

Am                              G
When you are a ginger life is pretty
 hard
F                             
Years of ritual bullying in the 
    E
school yard
Am                          G
Kids calling you ranga and fanta 
pants
F                     E
No invitation to the high school 
dance
         Am                     
But you get up and learn to hold 
       G
your head up
     F                           
You try to keep your cool and not 
      E
get het up
     Am                        
But until the feeling of ill is 
        G
truly let up
         F                      E
Then the word is ours and ours alone
 don't you know

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't have a fringe with at 
least a tinge of the ginge in it
Only a ginger can call another 
ginger ginger

Now listen to me we're not looking 
for sympathy
Just because we are sensitive to UV
Just because we're pathetically pale
We do alright with the females
Yeah I like to ask the ladies round 
for ginger beer
And soon they're running their 
fingers through my ginger beard
And dunking my ginger nuts into 
their ginger tea
And asking if they can call me ginge
And I say I don't think that's 
appropriate

Cus only a ginger can call another 
ginger ginger
Only a ginga can call another ginga 
ginga
And all the ladies agree it's a fact
 once you've gone ginge you can't go
 back
Only a ginger can call another 
ginger ginger

Yeah go ginge go you funky ginge

Yeah funky ginge 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**king with the g word is just 
not on
If you're a ginger bowl and you 
don't like us
You gonna stand up to the fight if 
you want to fight us
But if you cut yourself you might 
catch gingervitus
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 you can't 
winge if your injured
If you don't have a tinge of the 
ginge in your minge

Only a ginger can call another 
ginger ginger yeah
And you know my kids will always be 
clothed and fed
Cus papa's going to be bringing home
 the ginger bread
And they'll be pretty smart because 
they'll be well read
And by read I mean read and the 
other kind of red wooo

Only a ginger can call another 
ginger ginger wooo
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 listen-inga I'm not pointing
 the finga
I'm just having a singa
I'm just right in yeah

But only a ginger can call another 
ginger
Ginger
