Soft rockers Perico are in hot water today after the head of the Australian Womens Electoral Lobby, Judith Burbank, denounced them as unreconstructed, sexist and out dated.Burbank claimed the bands new song One eyed trouser sausage lover was demeaning to women, children, the poor, migrants, the aged, religious groups as well as anyone who owns a car over five years old.
"It reeks of patriarchal oppression with lines like 'don't go undercover, my little one eyed trouser sausage lover, feel heat, don't you pause, put it on some bread with sauce.' " she said.
Band spokesperson Big Col denied the song was sexist or oppressive, however he did admit that vegetarians may be offended but "they can piss off back to Northcote where they belong". A spokesperson from the Northcote residents Association could not be contacted for comment.
