POLITICAL CORRECTNESS <\/p>\n

by Bill Kochman<\/p>\n

They say I need to tone it down,
\nAnd demonstrate much more class,
\nThey try to shove me into a box,
\nAnd say “Don’t you be so crass.”<\/p>\n

But I’m so sick of all their rules,
\nThey’re afraid to speak real plain,
\nTheir attempts to please everyone,
\nWill surely drive them all insane.<\/p>\n

But as for me, the truth I’ll speak,
\nWith my own brand of spunk & sass,
\nIf they try to shut me up I’ll say,
\nNo thanks, I think I’ll just pass.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
