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.

then we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for

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

to be seperated from a group that large. All of you over here,you 7,
# }# E8 ~2 ?3 f4 g1 a5 @4 y) I; _/ bBad Words. That's what they told us they were, remember?; {1 U' L0 ]+ S' U
"That's a bad word!" No bad words, bad thoughts, bad intentions,

curve your spine, and keep the country from winning the war.

Wow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly

One." That's true. I usually switch off. But I mean, that word does

completely insensetive to people's feelings. I can understand why. |7 g4 V6 W" }
some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and ]4 f3 g; \ D
MotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on
8 l! E3 N) d6 sthere. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.
9 t6 b/ d3 `. m+ }I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend

you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."& H! s3 R' a: ~: v! W" I+ z6 P
It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the
( ^4 Q5 |: T! a1 T0 mother 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go) N$ z/ p: e( ~2 |
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
2 J' ~& ?. W/ l2 K' C& w+ ^Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were
# L. E" c! [/ E3 d; w4 a+ Pcertain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I
. ^" W' h; J3 Q% F s$ Qdon't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such/ P. ~& L, n0 w9 \8 C
stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."
9 J7 x' d* b L; S& B- KAnd, of course, the word Fuck. I don't really, well that's more/ B. C# h" {3 H
accedental humor, I don't wanna get into that now because I think
9 y. q3 B k' H# |6 u8 cit takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very
- d. y1 Z# e( _* Mimprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to
: S6 I1 v9 W" I: g/ v* shurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,
" R, N+ s" |( b"I'd rather have my son watch a film with 2 people making love' J4 Q" _. e% `- n
than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is# J2 }0 S# v! w$ k
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
* g0 s4 e6 Y1 x+ V I0 KI like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for
