Brand new song and video from the Socks, riffing on the recent Little Mermaid story, and to the tune of a song by our favourite singer songwriter Dean Friedman. And guess what, Dean approves. Click and enjoy.
ARIEL
Way on the other side of disturbed and
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
There are some people who don’t like the girl who sings
Under The Sea and Part Of Your World
Standing by the phrase “I’m not racist but”
They start petitions bout who can play parts and who can’t
They’re going crazy cos a fictional cartoon mermaid
Is being played by someone they don’t think can be
Ariel
She is a cartoon girl, she is a mermaid
Sings underwater and her best friends are fish
But if she was black they say that’s unrealistic
How’d you tell these people that she doesn’t exist?
They sit and they tweet into the night
Gnashing their braced teeth and pulling out their blonde hair
While the rest of us will just go watch the film
And their complaints will float off into the air
