As Clean as They Wanna Be (clean)
~ Release by The 2 Live Crew (see all versions of this release, 16 available)
Annotation
As Clean As They Wanna Be is the clean version of 2 Live Crew's third album. The album contains a disclaimer that "This album does not contain explicit lyrics." The album had notably worse sales than the explicit version. However, it does contain Pretty Woman, which is not on the explicit version. The song – a parody of the Roy Orbison hit Oh, Pretty Woman – resulted in a Supreme Court case, Campbell v. Acuff-Rose Music, Inc., which established that a commercial parody can qualify as fair use. Despite the sticker on the album cover claiming "This album does not contain explicit lyrics", the song Break It on Down appears in its original, explicit form.
Clean version also contains You Got Larceny and City of Boom, which are not available on As Nasty As They Wanna Be.
