The English language is so deep and very rich
Obscenity shows your grasp of it is poor
Is that why you said I am a bitch?
Well, now I’m going to show you my front door
When Lady Chatterley was tried and won
No-one thought we drown in worlds like “Fuck”
But now politeness too has been and gone
Our culture sinks into primeval muck.
Oh, can’t you learn by reading our good books
Or watching Shakespeare on the TV screen
Seems all we care about is how we look
Whilst from our lips we let fall words obscene
There may be moments when we need to swear
But little children should not have to hear.
