That enormous cockhole Rolf Harris sung about this in Tie Me Kangaroo Down, Sport like it was no big deal. And it was a huge hit and no one said anything.

I can't speak for anyone else, but the lyrics you wrote are the only lyrics to the entire song that I know, and I've always thought it was just some weird gibberish. Granted, I've never actively listened to it or sought it out, I've only heard it in passing.

There was an offensive verse in the original song, later deleted. But this is far from the most offensive thing about Rolf Harris.
