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

I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.

They're my work, they're my play, they're my passion.% q( E+ m3 z( Z/ L2 r1 U) c5 B
Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.9 O9 \6 v$ D+ ]- t+ w* q+ k4 X4 t+ m) ~% ~
then we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for- f: E6 S/ c/ O$ C6 ?4 y4 F
that thought, so be careful with words. I like to think that the same

There are some that would have you not use certain words. v# F' V) n! e
There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7

"Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, CockSucker, MotherFucker, and Tits"7 T8 Y6 u! S( Y+ Z
Wow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly

some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and

there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.
& X: X& Q& J6 T# j2 ~: E3 xI mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend1 W! I9 a" p: F7 b, U8 Y
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at
8 @8 O. c/ q! r8 \, J9 Myou like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."

/ [7 F! P$ V( l3 P" H2 B6 a/ kPiss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were

stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."4 H! J. V' R# M# o% q

it takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very
6 n7 R1 V5 l# w9 Jimprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

"I'd rather have my son watch a film with 2 people making love

I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for' A) E" l1 J) E' l- R$ P. R1 C
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,0 u$ F2 r1 D, ~, x0 s/ s* L

3 p1 S+ f3 ~4 J- F, _: X& VI hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any

clinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,& q- ^, C0 f# K: v% a0 q# M) w
and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.

say "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding4 J) u& [- l' r2 Y/ {( D: |
them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that

can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
