Pc Correctness and Words

I find as I get older I have to censor what I say I can't say that a happy man Seems very, very, gay I never got the memo When certain words were made taboo I never got that message I' missed that one , did you? My Nan would send my brother To the shops to get her fags I know we aren't allowed to say this I've been told by P.C nags I remember the old story Of Black Peter and St. Nick Now you can't say either one or you'd be branded quite the prick There, I used another one Prick, somehow made the list Has anyone seen the memo It's the one note that I missed You must call someone Richard You cannot call him Dick Damn political correctness Just brought me back to prick If you sit and watch the telly you can't put your feet up on a poof that gets us back to gay again The PC folks would hit the roof Don't start me on Brazil nuts Remember what we all called those ? If I put that down in writing I'd be PC'd in the nose Men and Women are all persons This PC stuff just makes me sick But, just look at them both naked There, I've worked back round to prick It takes the fun out of saying swear words You have to censor all the time There might be a PC zealot waiting for a language crime So, in closing let me tell you And I will do it with some class They can take their PC memo And shove it up their....buttocks (I think is the term used nowadays)!

Thanks John. This PC stuff has gone too far. It's sad to see society following the lead of so many thin skinned individuals who take offense at everything. They spend more time looking at the negative side of life that they are missing out on the positives. The older generation had it right, I miss those days.
