Shit and fuck are our old friends
They’ve been with us all along
One tells us how we came to sing
The other the price of the song
Maybe they’re a little too close
To the animal core of what we really are
Like a telegram from a cavern wall
Like the history of a scar
So the next time somebody says one
If you look past the outer shell
Into the heart of shit and fuck
What a story they will tell
