Yesterday’s post was this morning. This is today’s post. I’ve been talking about alternatives to “you cheap lousy faggot.” This version by vlogger Hazel Hayes deserves a mention.
It’s not great musically. It isn’t bad either. It’s a couple sitting on a sofa with a guitar. They are not trying to be Ed Sheeran and Anne-Marie. They leave “slut” and “arse” alone, and have come up with an equivalent, direct and offensive alternative to the difficult lyric. I think Shane would approve.
I should label this NSFW (Not Safe For Work). Don’t play this at full volume in polite company.
