Home > FCC Song


 

The FCC Song is a deliberately controversial and explicit song by British born Monty Python comic artist Eric Idle. Idle—who is now a Californian resident—recorded the song around early 2004 in reaction to being fined by the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) for saying " fuck" on a Clear Channel radio station. The song is also known by its refrain "Fuck you very much". Besides being aimed at the FCC, the lyrics target most well-known figures associated with the Bush administration. Eric Idle stated about his song that
"...it’s dedicated to the FCC and if they broadcast it, it will cost a quarter of a million dollars".

(This calculation is based on the fine Idle had to pay for his use of the popular expletive.)

Eric Idle has made the song freely available for download at the Monty Python website. The lyrics' strong anti-Republican stance has prompted numerous anti-Bush websites to link to the song or to mirror it.

Here are the lyrics The FCC Song by Eric Idle

Here's a little number I wrote the other day while out duck hunting with a judge, QUACK


Fuck you very much the FCC

Fuck you very much for fining me Five thousand bucks a fuck so I'm really out of luck Thats more than Heidi Fliess was charging me. So fuck you very much the FCC For proving that free speech just isn't free Clear Channel's a dear channel so Howard Stern must go Attorney General Ashcroft doesn't like strong words and so He's charging twice as much as all the drugs for Rush Limbo so Fuck you all so very much

So fuck you very much dear Mr. Bush

for heroically sitting on your tush For Halliburton, Enron, all the companies who fail Lets send them a clear signal and stick Martha straight in jail She's an uppity rich bitch, but at least she isn't male So fuck you all so very much

So fuck you dickhead Mr. Cheney too.

Fuck you and fuck everything you do. Your pace maker must be fake You haven't got a heart As far as I'm concerned your just a pasty faced old fart And as for Condolezza she an intellectual tart So fuck you all so very much

So fuck you very much the EPA

For giving all Alaska's oil away It really is a bummer When I can't fill my Hummer The ozone a no go zone now that Arnold's here to say The nuclear winter games are going to take place in LA So fuck you all so very much

So what the planet fails

Lets save the great white males And fuck you all so very much

QUACK
