I need a song in which there is a pause that is intended to represent a swear word. The pause must be put there by the artist and not a radio station...OR I need proof that in the song by the Commodors that the pause between the words "brick" and "house" was intended to represent the word ****.

In the Manic Street Preachers' "Stay Beautiful" from their first album there are is a pause and a couple of guitar notes to represent "F*ck off" after the lyrics: "Don't want to see your face/Don't want to hear your words/Why don't you just..."
If you down the clean version of "Bad Influence" by Eminem, he's put in many sounds to cover up the swear words so that it can be played on the radio (but radio didn't put them in). Does that count?
In the song, 'The Runaway Train'. The fireman said he rang the bell. The engineer said, you did like ****. On the record the train whistle covers the word 'hell'.
also in Pinks song 16 wheeler "you can throw me out the window, and ill just get back up, hit me with your 16 wheeler truck, and i won't give a f..." only the ef sound is said
In Maroon Five's song 'harder To Breathe' they replace 'f***ing' with 'funking'. if you look in the sleeve of their album it will proove this
