Cancel Culture By Matthew Munson
Parody of DJ Culture by the PSB
With apologies to Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe
Imagine a time which everyone feared
Expressing one’s views without getting gored
Ideas without censorship, one strives to believe
Desperately, wanting to understand
Thoughts that need to be said or simply silent
A worry about our new reality, do you see?
Or are we in denial? (Cancel Culture)
Be silent with me (Cancel Culture)
Let’s try to understand Living in our new reality
Waiting for our free speech to end
Cancel Culture Cancel Culture
Let’s pretend that we have free speech
Like a job that is lost because someone got triggered, twelve years ago
Nothing is sacred, it’s hard to deny
Or otherwise for a fight for our jobs
I’ve been around Facebook, Twitter and Reddit for several years
I’ve seen what thoughts were given the axe
And I may ask are you triggered?
Now if I may ask About those forbidden thoughts
No idea too controversial, No thought without merit
Consider your privilege for who you are
For who you are and what you may be
A safe space desired (a desire without blood)
A dream without being challenged
Like J.K quoting biology, Chicken sandwich vendors quoting theology
Suddenly you are in the media and then you are crucified
Wondering where is your job (Canceled)
Cancel Culture, and I ask the woke (Cancel Culture)
Do I need to submit?
Living in a fantasy world
Waiting for our free speech to end
