Anti specism

from Tales of urban freedom by Union Jack

lyrics

Hey, you seem to know everything on everything
But your lack of knowledge makes you a fuckin’upstart
Damn, you are so close minded, a stupid redneck kid,
The ideas you convey are nothing but clichés,
Intolerance & ignorance are leading your sad existence
Let’s try to live in peace together / it would make things much easier
Always learn and become clever / knowledge's in books, not blockbusters
Give to the others a little of your time / and share with them, it'd be just fine
Let's make our world a better place to die / Open up & swallow your pride

Why are you afraid of everything that seems just different?
What are your reasons for feeling superior above the disabled?
Didn’t your mama teach you how to show some respect?
Nothing is worse than your constant disdain

Discrimination among the population / Fuck able-bodied pride
Based on handicap, health reasons and eugenism / Just open up your mind

I’d like to dedicate this one to the deaf, dumb and the blind
Forgotten in our society, the ones that the life punished cruelly
People should be more altruistic, humanistic less individualistic
We need to harmonize, To act rather than to promise
I wish a world accessible to all, France is late, so hear this call
Stop all kinds of discrimination and restore real communication
People can change this world, spread the word, we can afford it
Try to live in a Wheelchair and understand how life can be unfair
When all eyes are on just on you. One day this person may be you
