FATTIE FATTIE * CLANCY ECCLES * TROJAN 658 * UK

Clancy Eccles' take on the Fat Girl scenario, not to be confused with the Fat Man situation.

 Fattie Fattie was, because of its mixture obscure meanings and vernacular lyrics, considered something of a risqué song by British youth in its day, and partly because of this and the excellent fast Early Reggae rhythm, it was very popular with the Skinheads at the time. 

By the moralistic and pernicious 'progressive' precepts of today this record would be classed as offensive, though quite how someone who has a penchant for fat girls is supposed to describe that is not clearly stated. 

The reality of this particular aspect of Neo Liberal (progressive) censure, sanctioned by the state through its media, is that it really only benefits and helps perpetuate the fashion and cosmetic industries through its running dogs in the advertising industry. In truth almost any aspect of the human condition could be rendered undesirable if the relentless power of the state run media and advertising were to compel it.
