Mum Does the Washing

Lyrics: Joshua Idehen Music: Ludvig Parment 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 you 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 that she did, in fact, do the washing Zionism: You shoved your Mum into the washing machine and the spinning made her dizzy. And that dizziness made her vomit.And you point at that vomit and call it anti-Semitism. 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 of…like…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 washing 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 Went on TV 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
