What does it mean, what does anything mean Sending out signals I see the smoke screens What is not dirty, what is not clean What should we not hear, what shouldn't be seen Running off verbals like a runaway truck Who censors the censor, can I do that myself Make up my own mind like anyone else Forget me, forget me not Remember me like acid drops Mind over morals, anything banned The zealots are marching with Bible in hand Keyed to the roof 100 proof Some of them hairpins, some of them clams Desperate Susans, desperate Dans Who censors the censor, can I do that myself Make up my own mind like anyone else You read but missed my plot You only see that what is not These are clueless, living in fear Scared of their own sex or anything clear Still looking down proboscis crown Vague hope and no charity - welcome to the 21st century The hush puppy hushes, a dummy dumb struck What is bad language, what shouldn't be heard Or used as a token or used as a word What is not dirty what is not clean What is not filthy, what is obscene Who censors the censor, can I do that myself Make up my own mind like anyone else Forget me forget me not Remember me like acid drops These different colours, different style Different cultures - these blend in a while Prejudice prods through a big picket fence Divided we fall without a defense The seat of easement, the privy parliament Petticoat merchants bent on intent There everywhere, these tricks of the trade Some in the light, some in the shade
