about

Just because a man is in your favourite band it does not mean that he is incapable of sexual assault.

This song is made from comments on social media after some men in bands on our local scene were accused of sexual assault. We are shocked at how the ‘cool guys’ are excused for their actions and the victim of the assault is blamed or accused of lying.

We are not commenting on any specific person or incident with this song.

lyrics

They say “He is in a band”
They say “He’s a punk rocker”
They say “She must have made it up, and she’s telling lies to cause trouble”

They say “I heard she was a flirt”
They say “I heard that they were kissing”
They say “It must have been her fault”
They say “Did you see what she was wearing?“

We say RAPE is RAPE, even if the rapist is in a band that you like.

They say “A.C.A.B.“
They say “Hang all the judges", until their friend’s accused of rape, and then they say “I want to see the police report“
They say “I’m sitting on the fence“
They say “I’ll wait until the court decides“
They say “I really like his band, and he did a line of speed with me once”

They say “He is OK”
They say “He said he didn’t do it”
They say “No one else was there, so it must be her that’s lying”

We say RAPE is RAPE, even if the rapist is in a band that you like.
