Well well that did make you cross didnt it Steve?!

Ok my response....

"keep on sanitising like this" I was only suggesting the subject of THIS song should be taboo.I am not aware I have promoted the sanitising of other songs elsewhere and I am in fact a fan of cuckolding songs. Had this song ended with the wife cuckolding her vile husband I would have liked it much better :-)

My other point about it being sung in schools (and particularly the illustration mentioned) is also valid. Imagine you are a child who's mother is being beaten at home and you see and read the message in this song...

I am, in fact, opposed to the overly PC generation we live in and feel that much satirical and black humour is lost because of modern attitudes. I do however not see the satire or black humour of this song and feel that certain subjects should not be trivialised.
