This is the full version of the well funny Ginger song from Hale & Pace in the early 90's. Found my old video of their songs some of which are well funny, if you want more let me know.
hale and pace are fucking legends. want the dvd box set! still no other comedy that did a sketch show for 10 consecutive yaers. absolute gods of comedy. respect.
Apparently the two came up with this song during a script meeting with the other writers. Norman Pace observed that one of the writers was ginger and said to Gareth “It must be utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger”. At which Gareth Hale replied “That sounds like a good song”.
I worked with a guy in Manchester in the 1990s. He wrote sketches for Hale & Pace (and others) and he had ginger curly hair. I wonder if he wrote this one.
Do you think gingers choose to have red hair, light skin and freckles? No! so why be so mean, they can't help it! And if they like it, why not just keep it that way? gingers are also humans, so treat them like that. on-topic: I love this song! hahaha xD
Some believe the tarot card can predict your fate But we believe the future is related to your pate If your hair is black or brown, your life will be a doddle But if your ginger then your up the creek without a poddle Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger It doesn't matter if ones poor or rich I don't want to be a cringer or a whinger But if you're ginger, life could be a bitch Fergies hair was fiery red and she's no longer here Poor Van Goph, got so pissed off that he cut off his ear If Lionel Blair had died his hair, would he be a ginger beer? Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger I say to you that it's not really fair If one happened to singe a ginger fringe Would one have a flaming head of hair When it comes to scarlet bonces, Oh how the mighty fall He lost two elections, Neil Kinnocks what he's called He was twice unlucky cause he's ginger and he's bald He's a Welshman, and he's bald and he's ginger Red headed Englishmen can't sit in the midday sun My freckled skins as white as alabaster But five minutes in the sun and mine is not Now I look like a blistered crimson lobster And I sit in the shade and join the dots On the beach one sees a blondie but is it naturel With a ginger headed person, It's easier to tell Cause I must confess, red mustard cress grows in my dingley dell Yes, It sticks out a mile when you're ginger Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be You need grit, You need guts When you're dunking ginger nuts It's utterly, utterly rotten to be MY wifes angry when in bed Drop my trousers she sees red It's utterly, utterly rotten to be Bouncing balls of Boris Becker Grated carrot around his pecker It's utterly, utterly rotten Beneath these pants of cotton It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger and that's that
The thing is that video was put out in like 1993, you wouldent get away with it today, so the truth is Hale and Pace were not thinking like we do thesedays. So realy there is no argument, to scrutinize this by todays standards is like scrutinizing Bernard Manning on the comedians in the 70's. It was of its time.
Lol, i love seeing anti ginger and pro ginger people fight over youtube, its only a fucking hair colour, im ginger myself, so fuck, im born with it, its not good or bad, its just there.
I am also a ginger, and I have to say "bring it on!" political correctness is killing comedy. I'm ginger! he's fat! that guys Jewish! that woman is black! who gives a fuck its funny! Sterio types are funny and they make people laugh.... as long as it is in a fourm where everyone gets it then its fine. If you just take the piss out of just one minority and it is malicious then its not cool. Inteligent people know what is racist and what is a laugh at a simple difference.
Fergies hair was fiery red and she's no longer here, poor van Gogh got so pissed off that he cut off his ear, If Lionel Blair had dyed his hair would he be a ginger beer ? oh yes its utterly utterly rotten to be ginger, oh yes its utterly utterly rotten to be ginger, I say to you that its not really fair, If one happened to singe a ginger fringer, would one have a flaming head of hair. When it comes to scarlet bonces oh how the mighty fall, he lost two elections, Neil kinnocks what he's called, and he was twice unlucky 'cause he's ginger and he's bald, he's a welshman and he's bald and he's ginger.
Come to the united states, we don't get teased here. I'm appalled at how bad it is across the pond, I mean..really?! Isn't there better things to do besides pick on beautiful redheads?!
Brilliant. I really miss these two. Talented comedy is non existing nowadays.
hale and pace are fucking legends. want the dvd box set! still no other comedy that did a sketch show for 10 consecutive yaers. absolute gods of comedy. respect.
Ginger women are a special gift 😍
Nothing brightens up my day than the sun and this song

Apparently the two came up with this song during a script meeting with the other writers. Norman Pace observed that one of the writers was ginger and said to Gareth “It must be utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger”. At which Gareth Hale replied “That sounds like a good song”.
I think the meeting went something like this:
Johny: That man over there is ginger.
Billy: We know a song about it, don't we?
Brilliant 😂
Me too! and I love this song ! :)

Hahahahaha , I randomly remembered this song this morning and had to show my girlfriend it 😂

Flanders and Swann would approve I think ;)
They are ginger women with a high profile i would not say no to.
I worked with a guy in Manchester in the 1990s. He wrote sketches for Hale & Pace (and others) and he had ginger curly hair. I wonder if he wrote this one.

haha gingers rule!
Do you think gingers choose to have red hair, light skin and freckles? No! so why be so mean, they can't help it! And if they like it, why not just keep it that way? gingers are also humans, so treat them like that.
on-topic: I love this song! hahaha xD

Some believe the tarot card can predict your fate
But we believe the future is related to your pate
If your hair is black or brown, your life will be a doddle
But if your ginger then your up the creek without a poddle
Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger
It doesn't matter if ones poor or rich
I don't want to be a cringer or a whinger
But if you're ginger, life could be a bitch
Fergies hair was fiery red and she's no longer here
Poor Van Goph, got so pissed off that he cut off his ear
If Lionel Blair had died his hair, would he be a ginger beer?
Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger
Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger
I say to you that it's not really fair
If one happened to singe a ginger fringe
Would one have a flaming head of hair
When it comes to scarlet bonces, Oh how the mighty fall
He lost two elections, Neil Kinnocks what he's called
He was twice unlucky cause he's ginger and he's bald
He's a Welshman, and he's bald and he's ginger
Red headed Englishmen can't sit in the midday sun
My freckled skins as white as alabaster
But five minutes in the sun and mine is not
Now I look like a blistered crimson lobster
And I sit in the shade and join the dots
On the beach one sees a blondie but is it naturel
With a ginger headed person, It's easier to tell
Cause I must confess, red mustard cress grows in my dingley dell
Yes, It sticks out a mile when you're ginger
Oh yes, It's utterly, utterly rotten to be
You need grit, You need guts
When you're dunking ginger nuts
It's utterly, utterly rotten to be
MY wifes angry when in bed
Drop my trousers she sees red
It's utterly, utterly rotten to be
Bouncing balls of Boris Becker
Grated carrot around his pecker
It's utterly, utterly rotten
Beneath these pants of cotton
It's utterly, utterly rotten to be ginger
and that's that
lol this is awsome lol i love it
Racism at its highest leval, imagine them singing about skin colour, 👨🏿🦰
Ahahaha! I love it!
It's mean, but soooo funny!
xxx
I saw a programme about gingers once, we are slightly genetically different to other people!

Ginger power! Ginger power!!

No truer words have ever been spoken!!! I dye my red hair black. Imagine being a fat, ugly redhead and people say, ''Oh you're not ugly"
I don't know how Prince Harry, Rd Sheeran and Tormmund feel now!

@fatviking1995 i agree with you if people are offended what are they playing the song for i got a m8 who's ginger he loves it he said it's hillarious
There's no way this would be shown on t.v nowadays,all the sjw's would love to complain and get it banned,really enjoyed these two when I was a kid🤣
The thing is that video was put out in like 1993, you wouldent get away with it today, so the truth is Hale and Pace were not thinking like we do thesedays.
So realy there is no argument, to scrutinize this by todays standards is like scrutinizing Bernard Manning on the comedians in the 70's. It was of its time.

I am also a ginger, and I have to say "bring it on!" political correctness is killing comedy.
I'm ginger! he's fat! that guys Jewish! that woman is black! who gives a fuck its funny! Sterio types are funny and they make people laugh.... as long as it is in a fourm where everyone gets it then its fine.
If you just take the piss out of just one minority and it is malicious then its not cool.
Inteligent people know what is racist and what is a laugh at a simple difference.

Yeah I'm a redhead too.. And I still enjoy it.. So why does that make me a racist twat?

heavily influenced by monty python
damn, need lyrics, can't understand everything, especially the part 0:35 - 1:45
wojxtier It doesn't help that about every 30 seconds or so it skips
and the laughing and clapping is soo loud.
Fergies hair was fiery red and she's no longer here,
poor van Gogh got so pissed off that he cut off his ear,
If Lionel Blair had dyed his hair would he be a ginger beer ?
oh yes its utterly utterly rotten to be ginger,
oh yes its utterly utterly rotten to be ginger,
I say to you that its not really fair,
If one happened to singe a ginger fringer,
would one have a flaming head of hair.
When it comes to scarlet bonces oh how the mighty fall,
he lost two elections,
Neil kinnocks what he's called,
and he was twice unlucky 'cause he's ginger and he's bald,
he's a welshman and he's bald and he's ginger.
Thanks a lot!
rusty balls
So what? It's a funny song. If you can't make fun out of yourself, I pity you.
Come to the united states, we don't get teased here. I'm appalled at how bad it is across the pond, I mean..really?! Isn't there better things to do besides pick on beautiful redheads?!
Copied later by Catherine Tate
also known as a genetic defect.
Never understood the thing about gingers. I suppose they're a minority...
Some people don't like untalented comedian's i suppose!!!!
