Baby's Got a Temper
Baby's Got a Temper was the fourteenth single release by the English big beat band The Prodigy and was released on July 1, 2002 after a five-year hiatus. It is the second single that was not released from an album, and the first after the departure of the dancer Leeroy Thornhill in 2000.
The song became controversial because of the lyrics by Keith Flint , which specifically referred to the abuse of the drug flunitrazepam .

Video
The music video for the single was released on DVD along with a video explanatory short film. It was developed by the Swedish production team, Traktor , and shows three men in suits who disappear into masks and then dress up as the band members. They then step onto the stage and play in front of several cows. Scantily clad women are forced by a stout woman with a whip to milk the cows, who then pass the milk on to their partner. The latter sells it to passers-by, who are extremely greedy and consume the milk immediately. The story of the video is based on a dream by Liam Howlett.
