Lyric with homophobic slur changed to "you're cheap and you're haggard"



Perfect for dumbass bigots to get big mad about!
And perfect for normal people to enjoy without hearing a gross slur from people who have since learned and grown and done better.
 
So they removed "slut", "faggot" and "arse" because can't have no-no words in my good Christian song. Think of the children. I have no pearls and I must clutch.


On an unrelated note, "ACAB" includes the boys of the NYPD choir.

I never even heard of this song, until this thread. I was expecting them to say the word "n****" or something, but nope, it's just "faggot" and "slut".

Radio stations need to stop giving words so much power! I've heard much worse when listening to 90's and 80's rap songs.

That’s gay
 
This is old news, in the UK at least however the term faggot in the original version does not refer to the meaning you think. It's an Irish slang for lazy or worthless person.

So in actual effect they are oppressing the Irish people for not using words the same way as other countries.

Songs garbage anyway, I've always hated it... Get Slade on 🤪
