“I imagine they wouldn’t care for Dire Straits’ “Money for Nothin’”, either.”

Lots of classic rock stations play an altered version that has the offending words washed out.

At which point it really isn't "Money for Nothin'" any more. It becomes something more like Neil Sedaka's "Bad Blood", when he performed it on the kiddie show "Wonderama" and changed "bitches" to "witches".

Of course, I do prefer Frank Sinatra's lyric to "Mrs. Robinson".
