I Swear
Don't use profanity, don't curse or cuss
Why all the commotion, why all the fuss?
Is it really that bad without using vulgarity?
It's alot like slang in it's own singularity
Why do we call them swear words as if a dedication, oath, or pledge?
Why all the judgment like a crime was alleged?
There are worse foul profound words filled with ignorance so why take offense?
It's amazing how quickly so few words can put people on the defense
Be careful of course in how you choose to word your words
Sometimes we yell obscenities to be heard
They can be a tool in releasing emotions
They roll off the tongue naturally for some as they go through the motions
For some it's a second language all of its own
Others find it repulsive and don't condone that it's known
Who came up with swear words anyway?
Why do we pick on profanity but slang and other use of improper grammer is okay?
