Taboo

It simply isn't done.

I should not should not - ---- --- it simply isn't done

For we are light and funny and - ---- --- isn't fun

It's as much fun I bet

As playing a game of Russian roulette

With a fully loaded gun

I must not say - ---- --- You've heard those words before

As a bandage and a binding on wounds still red and sore

They're the words before, the words before he slammed the bloody door

They're the words before, the words before he threw to the floor

They're the words before, the words before "take that you f*ckin whore"

So I cannot say - ---- --- even though you know I do

No I shall not say - ---- ---

Not to you
