Sexist songs

“Daisy Daisy get me a tit to chew,
I’m so crazy my balls are turning blue,
I can’t afford a Johnny, a plastic bag will do,
So if you lie on your back and open your crack, i’ll always finger you”

Me and my pals, primary school, 1989
Now that’s well romantic!! Wish I had those lines in my 20s!!
 
Wives and Lovers- Burt Bacharach.
Covered by many stars including Sinatra, Jack Jones and Andy Williams. Probably the most misogynistic lyrics you'll ever read.
Years ago, Andy Williams was on TFI Fridays and what a cool fucker he looked. I already knew a few of his songs and thought I'd buy the C.D. I liked it. A year later I started going out with this posh sort(NO PICS) and within a few weeks we were on holiday in Cuba. I bought my CD collection Kinks,The Jam, Stone Roses, Smiths, Level 42, Oasis, Alison Moyet etc..and also Andy W, because I thought she'd be well impressed with my cool tunes. She went fuckin mad when she heard Wives and lovers and said it was vile and they were the most oppressive lyrics she'd ever heard. Reluctantly I agreed and promised to not play it again and said it was out of order and not for this millennium. That was after I'd told her to iron my jeans and shirt whilst I went to the pool to flirt with the pool attendant. ;-)
Bacharach only wrote the music. Hal David was responsible for the lyrics.
It was originally written to go with a film of the same title but in the event it never appeard in the film,
 
The video ain't bad either


How can an admittedly shite tune and video produced by a girl group be defined as sexist?


Or was it just an excuse to post a clip featuring some scantily clad females? If so, fair play mate!
