There once was a prurient censor --
It didn't take much to incense her.
Add a letter to "hit,"
Or change one in "spit,"
Or rhyme "duck" and your words will be spent, Sir.

When they edit, influence, or sway
You to say what they want you to say
Then you'd best figure out
What they're all about
So you'll know if you want things their way.

In the interest of family and state
I'll take what you write on the slate
And I'll keep it myself
On that high, narrow shelf,
And I'll read it while I masticate
(my dinne)

To my shock, I learned I can write 'cl*t'
And the censors don't mind it a bit.
But some words I can't say
Seem so similar, eh?
I guess I don't get censor... ship.
