"Jewish Princess " is a song by Frank Zappa , released on his 1979 album Sheik Yerbouti garlic aroma that could level Tacoma ", "a Yemenite hole", "a hair-do that rinses ", "a couple of sisters that can raise a few blisters ", "titanic tits ", and "sand-blasted zits ".[1]
It attracted attention from the Anti-Defamation League , and Zappa stood by the song, arguing: "Unlike the unicorn , such creatures do exist—and deserve to be 'commemorated' with their own special opus". He said that the ADL's concerns were "as if to say there is no such thing as a Jewish Princess. Like I invented this?"[2]
Biographer Barry Miles wrote that the ADL asked the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to ban the record from being played on the air – a symbolic effort given that the song was not being played anyway.[3] [4]
Zappa said that songs which offend people such as "Jewish Princess" are why Sheik Yerbouti became one of his best selling albums of all time.[5] Have I Offended Someone? [1]
