The following is transcript of one of Carlin's program, not the above unfortunately, but it helps to read it.

I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.

words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.8 Z" w- K4 m6 C$ Y
There are some people that are not into all the words.

There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7

sounding word. It sounds like a nickname, right? "Hey, Tits, come here,

not belong on the list. Actually none of the words belong on the list,
" n0 z/ j: v1 R! L+ M, \6 S/ Xbut you can understand why some of them are there. I'm not

MotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on* k5 g" S- [! o" v
there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.& \% h6 _7 n* x# \3 }; N
I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend

It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the
, N* f1 n/ K7 S/ i# dother 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go7 q' i5 q3 J0 d
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
- H# m! G) v& R0 mPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were- q0 S% T: U- f7 f" l; J% x
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I/ I4 T7 K( K4 l" F+ }* B
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such3 u9 k, h9 W/ y9 s) E! \0 ^! X, K+ g; U
stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."

accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think

"I'd rather have my son watch a film with 2 people making love( G# |8 W+ C1 h% v. o. n
than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is
r0 w4 Y% S9 e1 Z# g, la great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
" d- K$ Y, ~! |# X1 y' }% PI like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for; u7 o/ a3 ]! K2 }
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,

I hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any
/ p" {$ L( O* q' \9 g9 c/ D* icircumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even
f8 x4 O8 O" l0 Lclinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,

But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.
/ q# e V: ~ d- M: x) M' T2 uRemember the ones you giggled at in sixth grade? "...And the cock: P# @/ T4 ~% g
CROWED 3 times" "Hey, tha cock CROWED 3 times. ha ha ha ha. Hey, it's in
" r- ]# N6 g0 O5 e0 ~9 W/ y R) b3 Pthe bible. ha ha ha ha. There are some 2-way words, like it is okay for
! H' ^9 g* u$ D) m. fKirk Youdi to say "Roberto Clametti has 2 balls on him.", but he can't
0 Q2 o3 D+ A. t9 isay "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding- Y8 k* g' ]! V! ^* V
them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that
- v7 L6 S+ ^5 O( F/ x* }5 ~+ F6 y3 i; K0 i3 Bgoes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You' @2 b" D1 P, ]" F
can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
