Into the Wind
Movie standards were once quite high
Words like damn were frowned upon
But now with the wind those standards are gone
And frankly, no one seems to give a damn
So when the movie" Gone With The Wind" came out
The producers had some doubts about
Using the word Damn
Which was to be spoken by Rhett, Scarlet's man
But they relented and the word did stand
And the scene went exactly as planned
But what if the movie was made today
What would Rhett Butler say?
It would probably go something like this
Frankly @#* I don't give a #$*@..
Movie standards today are as low as they can get
The words they use today would make Rhett turn scarlet
