Politically Incorrect
Tom MacDonald Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I probably offended somebody
My generation's afraid of opinions, y'all so intolerant (y'all so intolerant)
They're ashamed of themselves
'Cause they're privileged and white or they're black and they're opposite
You get charged with harassment for hugging a woman and giving a compliment
Y'all way too sensitive, yet, offended to death, bring all the coffins in

I swear that y'all are mad at everything that don't affect your life, hey
I swear that y'all believe that being offended just means that you're right, hey
I swear that y'all just wanna be the only ones who everyone likes, hey
I swear if I swear at you ninnies, you're probably so triggered, you'd cry

And nobody wants to be real, everyone's scared of how everyone feels
We've become so ultra-sensitive and hyper-tolerant
That, honestly, honesty gon' be illegal
It's crazy y'all get so shocked and bothered
From people saying things that aren't responsible
If that seems logical, y'all are weak then
If someone says retard, it ruins your weekend

And that's retarded, my hair been in braids
'Cause it looks hella awesome
Y'all like to scream I appropriate culture
But I don't hear nothing, I'm paying homage
Y'all are just trying to get likes on your comments
Googling quotes that are socially conscious
And saying you're woke doesn't make you a prophet
It makes you a liar and stupid obnoxious

Always on that blah-blah, y'all should keep it to yourselves
Miss me with that drama, you must think I'm someone else
'Cause y'all don't wanna fuck with me
'Cause I don't feel the pressure, no, I will not be censored
I'm not afraid, that's why they fuck with me
My name will be remembered, and I will live forever
I bet y'all hate that y'all are stuck with me

Happy Halloween, for one evening, only you wear what you want
Unless it's a poncho, a headdress or afro, you'll piss someone off, hey
I'd say Merry Christmas, but I know that it's 'bout to be gone
If religious freedom's such a dire issue
Why you're dressed like a priest in October for fun?

Don't let 'em censor your thoughts
Don't let 'em make you regret that you talked
Don't let 'em tell you that nice is the law
Tryna make you all right here when nothing is wrong, yeah

Words hurt you, clothes hurt you
Memes hurt you, jokes hurt you, we hurt you
Half the time you don't even probably know what hurt you
But you super mad, trust we heard you

You're a pawn in a broken system
Are you triggered much? You've been showing symptoms
Y'all are so addicted to being hopeless victims
Y'all could crash a plane and blame the road conditions
And your only sickness is your social vision
Makes you scared of choices, but you're pro-decision
So you march a lot, but never go the distance
Yelling way too loud until no one listens

Always on that blah-blah, y'all should keep it to yourselves
Miss me with that drama, you must think I'm someone else
'Cause y'all don't wanna fuck with me
'Cause I don't feel the pressure, no, I will not be censored
I'm not afraid, that's why they fuck with me
My name will be remembered, and I will live forever
I bet y'all hate that y'all are stuck with me

You look like the devil, you sound like some Christians
You just won a medal for asking permission
You just want a pat on the back in addition
To being so tolerant, fine, I admit it
You're nicer, you're better, you're righter, you're brilliant
Most sensitive creatures in all of existence
My freedom of thought should be censored with prison
The world would be better if we weren't so different

Always on that blah-blah, y'all should keep it to yourselves
Miss me with that drama, you must think I'm someone else
'Cause y'all don't wanna fuck with me
'Cause I don't feel the pressure, no, I will not be censored
I'm not afraid, that's why they fuck with me




My name will be remembered, and I will live forever
I bet y'all hate that y'all are stuck with me

Overall Meaning

In the song "Politically Incorrect," Tom MacDonald expresses his frustration with the hypersensitivity and perceived intolerance of his generation. He begins by acknowledging that he may have offended somebody with his opinions, but argues that the current generation is too afraid to express their own opinions for fear of offending others. MacDonald suggests that this hypersensitivity has led to intolerance toward those who hold different opinions or are of a different race.


MacDonald also criticizes the idea of political correctness, arguing that it has made honesty almost illegal. He questions why people are so shocked and bothered by others' opinions and comments, suggesting that it shows a weakness. He believes that people are too focused on being socially conscious and "woke" rather than being true to themselves and their beliefs.


MacDonald concludes the song by encouraging people to not let others censor their thoughts and to not succumb to the pressure of political correctness. He asserts that his name will be remembered and that he will live forever because he is not afraid to speak his mind and hold true to his beliefs.


In summary, "Politically Incorrect" is a commentary on the hypersensitivity and intolerance of Tom MacDonald's generation and a call to be true to oneself and not succumb to political correctness.

People are easily upset and offended by irresponsible or insensitive comments. If someone saying a single word like 'retard' can ruin your weekend, then you are weak and easily triggered.

People accuse me of cultural appropriation for wearing my hair in braids, but I think it looks awesome and I am not trying to offend anyone. I am merely paying homage to a culture that I respect.

People are only trying to get likes on their comments by pretending to be socially conscious and 'woke', but this does not make them a prophet or an expert on social issues. In fact, it makes them fake and obnoxious.


Happy Halloween, for one evening, only you wear what you want Unless it's a poncho, a headdress or afro, you'll piss someone off, hey I'd say Merry Christmas, but I know that it's 'bout to be gone If religious freedom's such a dire issue Why you're dressed like a priest in October for fun?
You can dress up however you want on Halloween, but if you wear a poncho, headdress, or afro, you may upset someone. The same goes for saying 'Merry Christmas' during the holiday season. If religious freedom is such a critical issue, then why are you dressed up as a priest for fun?


Don't let 'em censor your thoughts Don't let 'em make you regret that you talked Don't let 'em tell you that nice is the law Tryna make you all right here when nothing is wrong, yeah
Do not let others censor your thoughts or make you regret expressing your opinions. Being 'nice' is not a law, and we should not have to conform to what is deemed acceptable by society when there is nothing wrong with expressing one's thoughts and opinions.

You've been showing symptoms Y'all are so addicted to being hopeless victims Y'all could crash a plane and blame the road conditions And your only sickness is your social vision Makes you scared of choices, but you're pro-decision So you march a lot, but never go the distance Yelling way too loud until no one listens
People are just pawns in a broken system, and they are so easily triggered that they are exhibiting symptoms. They are addicted to being victims and always find someone or something to blame for their problems. Their only sickness is their distorted social vision, which makes them scared of making choices even though they claim to be pro-decision. They march and yell, but they never follow through and end up being ignored.


You look like the devil, you sound like some Christians You just won a medal for asking permission You just want a pat on the back in addition To being so tolerant, fine, I admit it You're nicer, you're better, you're righter, you're brilliant Most sensitive creatures in all of existence My freedom of thought should be censored with prison The world would be better if we weren't so different
Even though you look like the devil, you sound like some religious people who always ask for permission. You just want a pat on the back for being so tolerant, but you are also sensitive and easily triggered. You are so nice, good, and right all the time, but this is not necessarily an admirable trait. The world would be better if we were all the same, but then our freedom of thought and diversity would be censored and suppressed.


Always on that blah-blah, y'all should keep it to yourselves Miss me with that drama, you must think I'm someone else 'Cause y'all don't wanna fuck with me 'Cause I don't feel the pressure, no, I will not be censored I'm not afraid, that's why they fuck with me My name will be remembered, and I will live forever I bet y'all hate that y'all are stuck with me
People should keep their meaningless talk to themselves and stop bringing unnecessary drama. They don't want to mess with me because I refuse to be censored or pressured into conforming to societal norms. I am not afraid and will not be silenced, which is why people are trying to mess with me. They hate that they are stuck with me because they cannot control me.

I’m a teacher and I just spent an hour this week being told in β€œprofessional development” that because I’m white, I’m privileged, racist, insensitive, biased, and I’m guilty of micro aggressions because I compliment someone. I would like to blast this song over the school intercom! It’s everything I’ve been thinking for the last 20 years. Thank you, Sir.

@cannabisgrowsnpenguins9590

I'm 18 and very glad I spent most of my school years alone :( I've been seeing this all unfold for years its sad

@CatOfTheYearuWu

This is scary if true. Sounds like critical race theory. What trump tried getting rid of but is now being reinstalled under Beijing Biden. Similar situation in Missouri schools. Indoctrination for Marxism

@frankburchett9216

Blast this loud and proud! He isn't saying anything negative. Truth is sometimes hard for people!

@Chrisbybeebee

@@lifes3ps πŸ’― % Also look up @BretWeinstein & his wife, @HeatherHeying and, of course, Dr. Jordan Peterson & Douglas Murray. There are MANY others who preach against this Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Diversity & Inclusion woke, Marxist baloney.

@lifes3ps

@@Chrisbybeebee truth, i just wanted to get him to the people who are looking for that material right now as its exploding across public schools, particularly on the coasts (as things always start)
