Censoring a song

~~MicShazam~~ · 09-06-2016, 04:40 PM

I done Syria Afganistan Iraq and Iran
North Korea tell me where does it end
Well the bodies keep piling up with every day
How many more of em they gonna send

Well they send their sons and daughters off to die
For some oil
To control the heroin
Well son I hope you don’t grow up
Believing that you’ve got to be a puppet to be a man
Well they cut off your hair and put a badge on your arm
Strip you of your identity
Tell you to keep your mouth shut boy and get in the line
Meet your maker over seas

Wearing that Kim Jong-il hat
While your grandma’s selling pills stat
Meanwhile, I’m wearing my ‘can’t pay my urgent/(pending) bills’ hat

Nobody’s looking up to care about a drone
All too busy looking down at our phone
Our ego’s begging for food like a dog from our feed
Refreshing obsessively until our eyes start to bleed
They serve up distractions and we eat them with fries
Until the bombs fall out of our empty skies

Turn off the TV
Turn off the news
Nothing to see here
They’re serving the blues
Nonsense on my TV
Nonsense on my radio
Hollywood telling me how to be me
The nonsense's got to go

Not perfect, but it's all I could think of.
Replaced words should have same amount of syllables as original words.

I thought he was gonna sing it somewhere. He just needs a verison with *bleeps*? Audacity is free, in that case.

Sell print outs of it. It's Barnes and Noble, after all.

I was asking if anybody could edit the audio file to mute out the swear words so I can play that in my store. Why would I ask for somebody to come up with words?

EDIT: Jesus Christ...

I tried doing that **** but couldn't get it to work which is why I'm asking for help here.

Never mind. It's late where I am right now. I'm at ~60% mental capacity.
Must be nice to have a job where you can just play whatever you like.
I recommend Pig Destroyer.
