* Roger Miller's "Guv'ment", which was featured in "Big River", the Broadway musical version of Mark Twain's Literature/AdventuresOfHuckleberryFinn, depicts Pap Finn ranting and railing against the bureaucratic government, with shades of Yosemite Sam in one verse:

* The song [[AntiLoveSong "Love You"]] by Jack Ingram built around this trope: "Love you, love this town / Love this motherlovin' truck that keeps breakin' lovin' down". As the song puts it, "There's some words that some words just have to replace."
* [[AntiLoveSong "A Friendly Goodbye"]] by Music/BowlingForSoup is the perfect musical example of this trope.
-->Ain't that a bee with an itch
-->Ain't that a mother trucker
-->You can go to H-E-Double-Hockeysticks and eff yourself
-->'Cause I'm so flippin' gosh darn
-->Sick of all the s-words you put me through
-->So F-U
* The song "Dang, Fetch, Oh My Heck" by the Mormon boy-band Everclean is full of this trope.
* Red Like Roses Part II from the ''WebAnimation/{{RWBY}}'' soundtrack has a subversion and plays the trope straight within a stanza of each other.
-->No way in Hell that I could ever comprehend this!
-->Now I'm trapped inside a nightmare every single f'ing day!
* Music/DefLeppard's "Let's Get Rocked"... Replace all instances of the word "Rock" with "fuck" and the song makes sense...
* Music/DuranDuran's "UMF", off the 1993 album ''The Wedding Album'', dances around what "UMF" stands for by not explaining what it means but rather phrasing it in a less explicit way ("Making love to the ultimate mind").
* Hilariously done in the Lil' Jon song "Get Low," where in the radio edit the lyric "To all skeet skeet motherfucker, to all skeet skeet goddamn" is changed to: "To all skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet, to all skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet skeet." ("Skeet" is a slang term for ejaculating onto someone, which to many is a lot more inappropriate than the words it replaced). The edited version of this song in general is about 50% of this trope and only 50% the actual lyrics.
* The {{Mockumentary}} ''Film/SonsOfProvo'' features a made-up Latter-Day Saints boy band. Among their songs, is "Dang, Fetch, Oh My Heck", with the chorus: "Dang, fetch, oh my heck / What the holy scrud / H-e-double-hockey-sticks / That's frickin', flippin' crud!" It is... far too catchy.
* Heavy metal group Music/BlueOysterCult once sang (on "Hot Rails to Hell") that "you know darn well the heat from below can [[EyeScream burn your eyes out]]!" "''Darn'' well!" In ''1973''! (They amend it to "damn" at some concerts.)
* Music/{{Weezer}} has a slight tendency towards this at times: "Pork And Beans" has the repeated line "I don't give a hoot about what you think", while "Brightening Day" has "they don't give a spit". On the other hand, "god damn" and "bitch" have shown up in multiple songs. ''The Black Album'' averted this, with a few songs using {{precision f strike}}s where previous works would have gone for softer language.
* [[Music/HeavyD Heavy D & the Boyz's]] song "Don't Curse" lampshades this trope, including several [[CurseCutShort instances of cursing cut short]] and replaced with other words, leading to one of the few raps you'll ever hear where a verse contains the phrase "Aww, ''shucks!''"
%%* Benny Bell's "Shaving Cream."
* Two versions of the Charlie Daniels Band's "The Devil Went Down To Georgia" made airplay in 1979. The album edition had the last line of the last verse "I done told you once you son of a bitch, I'm the best there's ever been." The single release for AM pop stations changed it to "'Cause I told you once you son of a gun, I'm the best there's ever been."
* [[Music/TheAllmanBrothersBand Gregg Allman's]] 1988 solo hit, "I'm No Angel" has the line, "So you don't give a ''darn'' about me".
* Parodied in Music/JohnLennon's 1973 ''Mind Games'' closer, "Meat City".
-->"Chicken-suckin', mother-truckin' Meat City shook down U.S.A."
* "[[Music/TheWho Why don'tcha all ffffffffffffffffffade away?!]]
* "Yes We Can (Can)", originally by Lee Dorsey, CoveredUp by The Pointer Sisters:
-->I know we can make it.
-->I know darn well we can work it out.
* Music/StevieWonder in "Higher Ground": "I'm so darn glad he let me try it again"
* Music/JasonMraz's song "The Dynamo of Volition" has this line: "Singing heck is for the people not believin' in gosh"
* "This Beat Goes On" by The Kings (1980): "I don't give a hoot 'bout what people have to say".
* The Bellamy Brothers' "Old Hippie" has the line "He's got young friends into New Wave/But he's just too ''frickin' ''old".
* [[Music/TheBeatles George Harrison]]'s "Piggies" was the first and only Beatles song that included a profanity in its lyrics:
-->''In their eyes there's something lacking,''\\
''What they need's a damn good whacking''
* The only major difference between fan_3's "Geek Love" in its original and Radio/RadioDisney versions is the background vocal saying ''"Oh my gosh, my gosh..."'' instead of ''"Oh my god, my god..."''
* The Music/{{Pretenders}} have a justified example (as if Lady Swears-A-Lot Chrissie Hynde otherwise would use it) - "heck" was needed to rhyme on "neck"...
* Music/{{KISS}}' "Spit" is based around this trope. "It don't mean spit to me."
