* ValuesDissonance: "Dope Nose" contains a line where Rivers says "fag". When Rivers wrote the song, the word wasn't recognized as a slur against homosexuals and was used as a common insult against straight people, and the word was not used in an intentionally homophobic context in the song. Since TheNewTens, the word was recognized as a hateful slur and became socially unacceptable to say. These days when performing the song live, the band censors it to "cheese".
