The thing about the S word in this song is that its there to prove a point not just to make people mad (although if they get more mad about the word shit, then that proves his point). Its an idea taken from Tony Campolo who said:
"I have three things to say today. 1st: While you were sleeping last night 30,000 kids died of starvation or diseases related to malnutrition. 2nd: Most of you don’t give a shit. 3rd: What’s worse is that you are more upset with the fact that I said shit than the fact that 30,000 kids died last night."
It speaks for itself and its interesting that it comes after his lines about talking and debating. Should we spend forever talking and debating about homosexuality? Should we talk and debate about the S word? or should we be more concerned with things that really matter?
