I Don't Know What's Allowed

I'm a sweet boy. If you've met me it's clear
But my humour is twisted and fucked up and weird
Could be how I cope when the sadness runs wild
Could be I watched too much South Park as a child
So this is my apology in advance
If I say something that conflicts with your stance
I want you all to feel good, and of that I am proud
But I just don't know what's allowed

I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
I admit it, I submit it
It's official, I'm avowed
I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
My mind's filthy, I plead guilty
I just don't know what's allowed

My last album starts with a Holocaust joke
I thought that was kosher since I've got Jewish folks
But my parents got mad, and hey I've been triggered too
The last thing I want is to do that to you
So I censor myself and disguise how I feel
But it leaves me empty because it's not real
So I sing you this warning and I'm singing it loud
That I just don't know what's allowed

I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
Please don't fire me, don't not hire me
But I'm taking off this shroud
I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
Please don't hate me, don't not date me
I just don't know what's allowed

Am I allowed to make cancer jokes
If I've never lived through the pain it evokes
Can I value the progress that's been made by #MeToo
While sex motivates everything that I do
Must we keep pretending we're not all fuckin' pervs
Stop lying, ma'am. I know you too are a perv
Look, I know not to bust my dick out in a big crowd
But short of that... I don't know what's allowed

I assume that's not allowed
I can't imagine that's allowed
My privilege was checked, but it still infects
The jokes I disavow
I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
It's not an excuse, it's just the truth
I'm telling you right now
I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
May I please keep this young boy
See, I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
I don't know what's allowed
I just killed and fucked my uncle
'Cause I don't know what's allowed
