The Lyrics

In the UK in 2012, the last analogue television signals were shut off for good so that digital TV is the only 'option'. Because so many channels practice part-time subtitling or even do not have subtitles at all, this has led to many deaf and autistic people being disabled by them. I wrote this song to raise awareness because it's cheaper than suing all the companies involved, as is required under the Equality Act 2010.
Yesterday
Deafness wasn't part-time either way
I wish subtitles stayed up today
Equality Act's worse than the DDA

Suddenly
TV's not the joy it used to be,
Endless scrolling through the EPG
Disabled is what I'm made to be

Why subs
Have to go I don't know, Pick doesn't say
I see
Loads of shows I can't watch on Yesterday

Yesterday
Choosing programmes was a cinch for Mei
But her hearing aids packed up today
Oh, frabjous day. Calloo, callay

Why subs
Have to go I don't know, Pick
I see
Loads of shows I can't watch on Yesterday

Yesterday
Choosing programmes was a cinch for Mei
But her hearing aids packed up today
Oh, frabjous day. Calloo, callay

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.
