I happened to be listening to an FM station when Alanis Morisette was played, you know the one: "another version of me, is she perverted like me? will she <obvious, awkward blank spot> in a theater?" ...they don't even bother to dub in replacement lyrics like they used to.

Edit: Have you ever noticed how many songs there used to be about having sex with underage girls? What about Pink Floyd calling to "get 'em up against the wall" or Lou Reed saying "colored girls" . . . ...Can an artist produce their best work, while afraid of being offensive? [/random thoughts]
