not trying to be a grammar nazi or anything, but it's "i'll lay your shit bare", hence why the word "shit" is reversed in most versions of the songs
Well I don't know anymore, I might have been listening to the censored version all this time. Btw, you'd have to actually be correcting my grammar in order to be a grammar nazi.
You're in the clear, all lyric sites that I checked have said "ship" not "shit". Some radio stations might censor it because of how it sounds in the song, and how parents/older folk may react to how it sounds in the song.
