iTunes has a radio edit version of this song available but when I read the lyrics and listen to the song I dont hear any profanity. What did they edit?

Not all radio edits are because of profanity. In the case of IWPYH, it's because they can't release an 8 minute song on the radio.

Ah yea I feel stupid lol. Of course it might be because I just skip the four minute instrumental intro every time I listen to the song. Do any of the songs on this cd have profanity?

Nope.

how do skip the beginning??? It's what makes the song so amazing...

Dont get me wrong, I love DCFC but I dont listen to them for their instrumentals. Between the end of the first song and the beginning of the second its like 6-7 minutes of not particularly inspiring or engaging, although adequate, instrumental work.

On talking bird there's the lyrics "if you don't shut the fuck up and tripping me out I am gonna gouge out your bullshit beady eyes and slit your throat". So not just profane but quite needlessly violent.

Oh yeah and on etc

REALLY?!?!? OMG i can't find it where is it?

Well that's right after the part where he talks about shooting up with his bird and after he mixes coke with the bird's excremement it starts talking to him, I guess the rating could be for drug references too?

yes exactly
lyrics arent what make the song.

The buildup is actually my favorite part of the song. I despise the radio edit; I really don't think the song is strong enough without the foundation of its crescendo. Just kinda... starts. =P

The first 4 minutes are also what make the song one of my picks on Narrow Stairs. I'd love to hear some purely instrumental work from DCFC. That'd be insane. Screw indie, they should just go post-rock, haha. I'd actually enjoy that for awhile, but I'd miss Ben's voice too much.

I think the intro would work very well if it was 1-2 minutes, not 4. it's just too repetitive.

I disagree... the song is infinitely better with the 4 minute crescendo...
the radio edit has no feeling imho...

yes...heavily agreed

The radio edit feels really really rushed.
