about
‘Baby, I Had An Abortion’ is the first track from Petrol Girls' upcoming third full-length album, due for release this summer.
This track looks to highlight the simple truth that everyone should have easy access to abortion, without apologies or shame, via vocalist Ren Aldridge’s own experience.
The band are raising money for Abortion Without Borders with this release - check out the new merch available to help raise funds for this great cause!
Abortion Without Borders are a network of organisations that fund and support people in Poland to access abortion in neighbouring countries or at home with pills. Abortion laws were further tightened in Poland last year making it only legal in extremely limited circumstances. “The work done by Abortion Without Borders is incredible and they’ve been a lifeline for so many,” says Ren.
lyrics
I'm a god damn should be mother
Got a womb so that's my purpose
I'm a god damn incubator
But baby I'll see you later
Who's life are you pro?
Who's do you want to control?
Heaven forbid my rights
Heaven forgive what I decide
SHAME SHAME SHAME
Point your finger and cry
SHAME SHAME SHAME
Oh I feel it deep inside
BABY I HAD AN ABORTION
Oh its a god damn moral panic
Save the sperm because its sacred
Blessed is the foetus
But god damn the children in existence
Who's life are you pro?
Who's do you want to control
You want to come inside
Tell me how i'm traumatised
Shame shame shame
Point your finger and cry oh its a
Shame shame shame
That I'm not sorry I'M NOT SORRY
BABY I HAD AN ABORTION
BABY I HAAAAAAD
An abortion

Can't listen w/o hearing Young Marble Giants, but a more nervous, taut take. All the tracks are great, but can't stop humming the title to myself. Josh Steichmann
