From the CD Reasons To Be Cheerful: The Best Of Ian Dury [2005] • From Wikipedia: • Spasticus Autisticus was written in 1981 as a protest against the International Year of Disabled Persons, which Dury considered to be patronising. Dury was himself disabled by polio contracted in his youth. Fed up with repeated requests to get involved with charitable causes, Dury wrote an anti-charity song. • The title and lyrics were deliberately provocative, as the word spastic, a name for sufferers of cerebral palsy and then used as the title for the charitable Spastics Society (now known as Scope), was becoming taboo in Britain due to its use as a derogatory term. The BBC deemed the lyrics offensive and along with other radio stations denied it airplay. • Lyrics: • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I wibble when I piddle • Cos my middle is a riddle • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I dribble when I nibble • And I quibble when I scribble • Hello to you out there in Normal Land • You may not comprehend my tale or understand • As I crawl past your window give me lucky looks • You can read my body but you'll never read my books • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm knobbled on the cobbles • Cos I hobble when I wobble • Swim! • So place your hard-earned peanuts in my tin • And thank the Creator you're not in the state I'm in • So long have I been languished on the shelf • I must give all proceedings to myself • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus, I'm spasticus • I'm spasticus autisticus • 54 appliances in leather and elastic • 100 000 thank yous from 27 spastics • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Widdling, griddling, skittling, diddling • Fiddling, diddling, widdling, diddling spasticus • I'm spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • Spasticus, spasticus • Spasticus autisticus • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • I'm spasticus! • Spasticus! • Studio version of the song: • • Ian Dury the Blockheads ~ Spasticus... • Spasticus Autisticus at the The Paralympics London 2012, performed by by Orbital and members of the Graeae Theatre Company: • • Video • Ian Dury speaks about the song: • • Ian Dury Speaks About Spasticus Autis...
