Ian Dury - Spasticus (Autisticus)

Lord Upminster is the second solo studio album by the English rock and roll singer-songwriter Ian Dury, released by Polydor Records in September 1981. It was recorded over a period of one month at Compass Point Studios in Nassau, Bahamas with his old writing partner Chas Jankel and the reggae duo Sly and Robbie. It is also the first Dury album distributed by Polydor. It was his first solo album in four years, since New Boots and Panties!! (1977), and like that album covers a diverse range of musical styles reflecting Dury's influences and background in pub rock, taking in funk, disco, British music hall and early rock and roll, courtesy of Dury's musical hero Gene Vincent. Unlike New Boots..., however, the album was received negatively by the majority of music critics, while other reviewers noted good points to the album. It was a commercial disappointment failing to make the Top 40, and the album's only single, "Spasticus Autisticus", failed to chart. / Wikipedia Spasticus Autisticus Dury's 1981 song "Spasticus Autisticus" – written to show his disdain for that year's International Year of Disabled Persons, which he saw as patronising and counter-productive – was banned by the BBC from being broadcast by the BBC before 6 p.m. The lyrics were uncompromising:     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 The song's refrain, "I'm spasticus, autisticus", was inspired by the response of the rebellious Roman gladiators in the film Spartacus, who, when instructed to identify their leader, all answered, "I am Spartacus", to protect him. According to Professor George McKay, in a 2009 article in his 2009 article "Crippled with nerves" (an early Dury song title), for Popular Music: Ian Dury, that 'flaw of the jungle', produced a remarkable and sustained body of work that explored issues of disability, in both personal and social contexts, institutionalisation, and to a lesser extent the pop cultural tradition of disability. He also, with the single "Spasticus Autisticus" (1981), produced one of the outstanding protest songs about the place of disabled people in what he called 'normal land'. Dury described the song as "a war cry" on Desert Island Discs. The song was used at the opening of the London 2012 Paralympics. / Wikipedia Spasticus (Autisticus) 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!
