I Don't Want TISM I Want a Girlfriend

"I Don't Want TISM I Want a Girlfriend" is the seventh single by TISM (This Is Serious Mum), released on 7" vinyl on 11th December 1989 by Elvis Records.
The single includes the song of the same name, and the B-side, "I'll 'Ave Ya", both of which originated on the demo tape Free Nelson Mandella – With Every Record, recorded in November 1988, and both would also later feature on the CD and cassette editions of TISM's second studio album, Hot Dogma, released in 1990 on Phonogram (a subsidiary of PolyGram).
Both songs differ from the album versions; the A-side has an extended introduction on Hot Dogma, and the B-side has a slightly longer ending with a brief diatribe from Ron Hitler-Barassi not heard on the single. Some copies of the single came with a folded A4 size merchandise insert.
To date, the single has never been reissued in its original format, though the single edits of both songs were included on the compilation Collected Versus, released in August 2022.
The cover art features a graphic of a family of five, the father of whom is pointing a shotgun into his mouth. The administrators of this wiki have been forced to censor the image for this article, following the removal of the unedited version by Fandom moderators; no such "censored" version of the single exists in reality.
