    This was written in memory of frontman Irwin Sparkes' secondary school English teacher, Jonathan "Mr. A" Anderton. Sparkes said he was inspired to write the song upon hearing of Anderton's death in 2006. Many of the lyrics such as: "So busy showing me where I'm wrong - you forgot to switch your feelings on...", were reflective of Anderton's personality as a teacher. Anderton requested his students call him "Mr. A", as he disliked being called "Mr. Anderton". It is from this that the song's title stems.

    This had always been lying dormant in the back of my mind since my brother's then best friend showed it to me about ten years ago. Then Oliver covered it and I could have sworn I recognised the opening from somewhere? When he sung "goodbye, dr. D" I was flooded with waves of nostalgia as I remembered this lovely little song. But it's more than that. In my head this song is tied to Josh and an era when my brother was best friends with somebody who I suspect is very gay. Thankyou for listening.

    SONG LYRICS!!!!!!!!!!!
    There's a hole in your logic
    You who know all the answers, oh, oh, oh, oh
    You claim science ain't magic
    And expect me to buy it
    Goodbye Mr A
    You promised you would love us
    But you knew too much
    Goodbye Mr A
    You had all the answers
    But no human touch
    If life is subtraction
    Your number is up
    Your love is a fraction
    It's not adding up
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    So busy showing me where I'm wrong
    You forgot to switch your feelings on, oh oh oh oh
    So so superior, are you not?
    You'd love a little bit but you forgot
    Goodbye Mr A
    You promised you would love us
    But you knew too much
    Goodbye Mr A
    You had all the answers
    But no human touch
    If life is subtraction
    Your number is up
    Your love is a fraction
    It's not adding up
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Goodbye Mr A
    Goodbye Mr A
    Goodbye Mr A
    The world was full of wonder
    'Til you opened my eyes
    Goodbye Mr A
    Wish you hadn't blown my mind
    And killed the surprise
    Goodbye Mr A
    You promised you would love us
    But you knew too much
    Goodbye Mr A
    You had all the answers
    But no human touch
    If life is subtraction
    Your number is up
    Your love is a fraction
    It's not adding up
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

      @@crinklechips6950 What a transphobic little turd. You think Abigail doesn't know she was born a man and has the same set of chromosomes? It astounds me know ignorant folks like you truly are. You go out of your way to insult and abuse individuals and groups of people you personally don't like that aren't harming you in any way. You pretend you're just 'spitting facts' while remaining ignorant of the topic as a whole. You can't even grasp what a social construct is and realize that's what transpeople are fighting against, not biology like you prefer to delude yourselves with. What a sad existence... To go out of your way with the intention of hurting someone just because their existence doesn't compute with your 'values'. Most people understand you can't completely change sex but that's not what this is about. Do you think transwomen think they can suddenly have babies or a period once they transition? No and they understand that VERY well. Much better than you do.
      This is about gender. A social construct made up of labels used to separate and distinguish groups of people by certain characteristics they share, similar to race and ethnicity. In fact, science and what was accepted as 'basic biology' (bigotry using pseudoscience) was used in the past to discriminate and subjugate certain races, ethnicities, and women. Blacks were said to have a different skull structure and were deemed inferior to whites, which was used as a justification for slavery and oppression. Also, if you know anything about history (I'm not betting on that), you'd know what what determines a 'man' or a 'woman' changes over time in different cultures. No one's arguing sex chromosomes or biology, except for tansphobes hoping to weaponize them against transpeople. They're fighting against the labels and roles society has been enforcing on people. In fact, that helps everyone out who doesn't want to be jammed into a little predetermined box with no way out. Even of you don't agree with someone, that doesn't mean you have the right to harm and abuse them. One of these days the shoe could be on the other foot and I'd bet you'd want to be treated with some dignity and human decency. Grow up and stop acting so immature. There's enough bs going on in the world and we don't need more hate. Then again, I guess it feels good for a bigot to punch down online in anonymity. You don't have to show your face or worry about saying crap like this in public. You're safe in your room and your community doesn't have to know there's a bigot walking among them. You get to keep that dirty little secret to yourself until hoping online and lashing out at any group you feel like with no repercussions.
