P!nk delivers toast to her haters on new protest anthem Irrelevant
Pink has released a fiery new track, seemingly in response to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade. The protest anthem, titled Irrelevant, sees the star sarcastically hit out at her haters as she sings, “You can call me irrelevant, insignificant / You can try to make me small / I’ll be your heretic, you fuckin’ hypocrite / I won’t think of you at all.” She continues: “Sticks and stones and all that shit / Does Jesus love the ignorant? / I’d like to think he’d gladly take us all.” Over the past two weeks, Pink has been in the firing line on social media for condemning the Court’s decision to “steal our basic right to control our bodies and futures”.
She went viral with the following tweet: “Let’s be clear: if you believe the government belongs in a woman’s uterus, a gay persons business or marriage, or that racism is okay – THEN PLEASE IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD NEVER FUCKING LISTEN TO MY MUSIC AGAIN.
AND ALSO FUCK RIGHT OFF. We good?” In another, she wrote: “I think all of our nerves are collectively fried from so many years of racism, misogyny, homophobia, etc. +pandemics, mass shootings, wars and the total lunacy, hypocrisy, ignorance of the GOP-it’s all a bit much. “But we will stick together.
Good will prevail over evil.” The Grammy Award winner seemingly addresses Roe v. Wade on Irrelevant with the lyrics, “Girls just wanna have rights / So, why do we have to fight?” In a statement, Pink said of the track: “As a woman with an opinion and the fearlessness to voice that opinion, it gets very tiring when the only retort is to tell me how irrelevant I am.
