Queen’s Fat Bottomed Girls has been dropped from a greatest hits compilation targeted at younger listeners.

The suggestive 1978 single in praise of “dirty ladies” with fuller figures was a chart success and featured on previous selections of favourite tracks by the glam rock band.

However, a new compilation of Queen hits released by Universal Music for a younger market does not feature the Fat Bottom Girls and its lyrics celebrating the beauty of a “heap big woman”.

The new greatest hits album has been made available on Yoto, an audio platform specifically aimed at children.

A new generation listening to the work of Queen will be shielded from the song, which describes an infatuation with “Fat bottomed girls” who “make the rockin’ world go round”.

The track written by Brian May includes the lyrics “I was just a skinny lad, Never knew no good from bad, But I knew life before I left my nursery, left alone with big fat Fanny, she was such a naughty nanny, big woman, you made a bad boy out of me”.
