There are a few I change when I perform them, just to make them less gender specific. On Heaven Don't Deserve Me I sing: "As much as anybody can" instead of "as much as my old woman can."
Also, on Home From The Forest, instead of singing: "In an old house on a hillside in some forgotten town" I sing "In a long forgotten town." There are several others I change, but that's usually because I forget a word or two of the lyrics.
