lyrics

Goodbye minced oaths, you’re sure as shoot profound
You’re all flipped out, you swore you’d swear out loud
When grace is grit and when the whirlwind’s strong
The latest shift in how the world went wrong
Goodbye minced oaths, you’ve moved to higher ground
Goodbye minced oaths, you’re on a different plane
Divine this code, the automated brain
Express yourself without analyses
When less is best, you work it out with these
Goodbye minced oaths, you’re on to better things
So why dear lord is it a dad burn blaze
When minds get freaked? We’re in a downturn phase?
Goodbye minced oaths, you’ve worn your welcome out
You’re all distraught, you know you’re selfish now
You take the bait and then you run with it
But hate is hate – you live among the dead
Goodbye minced oaths, you blow the truth right down
So why dear lord do we apply such guilt
When life gets rough? Or when we try we wilt?
Goodbye minced oaths, you proved your worth again
Your time is gone, you lose as well as win
A sinful man disowns the bygone books
When diplomats are hanging by god’s hooks
Goodbye minced oaths, you screwed yourself. Amen
