about
Mums explain the world, one article of clothing at a time
lyrics
The world
according to your mum doing the washing
Capitalism:
your mum does the washing.
You pay her a dollar.
You get her to do your mates washing.
Your mate pays you 50 dollars
Communism:
your mum does the washing.
You do the washing.
Every night you salute a photo of your dad.
Socialism:
your mum does the washing.
You do the cooking.
Everybody is happy, in theory.
Feudalism:
your mum does the washing
and pays you tax
Colonialism:
you barge into mum’s room.
Claim you “discovered” her room.
Dump your dirty clothes on the floor
Fascism:
your mum does the washing
And you are obsessed with with her nose
Liberalism:
you watch your mum do the washing
and feel really really bad.
“Something must be done” you say.
Something may or may not get done
Libertarianism:
Your mum does the washing.
You believe you did the washing
Religion:
your mum does the washing. You thank god
Atheism:
your mum does the washing.
You make a 12 part YouTube video demanding peer reviewed evidence she did, in fact, do the washing
Zionism:
you made your mum live inside the washing machine
and she got dizzy from the spinning which made her vomit and you point at that vomit and call it antisemitism
Americanism:
your mum does the washing.
It’s in the constitution.
END OF DISCUSSION
Mansplaining:
your mum does the washing.
You tell her how best to do the washing.
You have never done the washing.
Same sex marriage:
Your mums do the washing.
Patriarchy:
your mum doesn’t exist.
The washing is mysteriously done
Terfism:
your mum doesn't want
your other mum doing the washing
because genitals and stuff
Polling:
there's a 70% chance
you will do your washing
on Saturday night
Come Sunday morning
it was 100% done by your mum
Africanism-
you go 2 bennys house
bennys mum does the washing
You ask your mum why
she doesn't do the washing
You do not survive the night
Feminism:
your mum insists you grow up
and do your own washing
White feminism,
your mum hired a woman
of colour to do the wash
Male feminism:
that one time I did the washing
told everyone I did the washing
I blogged about it
I bragged about it
Took a selfie
Insta story
I went on oprah
Won an Oscar
Went on fort nite
And did a dance
I’m an ally
Hashtag me too
Egalitarianism:
that one time you did the washing
is proof its all equal and
no one needs feminism any more
Hip Hop:
everyday im hustling/ every day I’m hustling/
when I bring the basket/mama put the washing in
Narcissism:
You look good in the clothes your mum washed
Surrealism
the washing does your mum
according to your mum doing the washing
Capitalism:
your mum does the washing.
You pay her a dollar.
You get her to do your mates washing.
Your mate pays you 50 dollars
