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.( @! m% |8 O2 F! D0 O1 w+ ^7 ^
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.

There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7& T! S$ l7 h9 T, U& H
of them you can't say on television. What a ratio that is.

and words. You know the 7, don't you, that you can't say on television?% \+ g3 b' U0 J, m( K
"Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, CockSucker, MotherFucker, and Tits"

Wow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly8 \! \* M1 |# y/ }( M% h( H
sounding word. It sounds like a nickname, right? "Hey, Tits, come here,

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

MotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on

I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend% Z2 e7 m& k. p. j) r; `0 ~
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at- V6 @ @$ ~3 I) C7 B
you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go/ u7 \3 |% M$ @1 Q& Q. g
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
3 B) \' r9 U' {: R, _( |% h: _Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were
9 D* z2 f' E' |' w, W: c# f6 z, ?/ y4 y. Mcertain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I1 k7 ^4 O* l4 \9 W, I
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such

imprortant 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* F& S2 N# N3 }
than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is& C' a; E$ p" K: j: _
a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but' C3 |8 A9 Y$ U+ i' i
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for
$ J, V% n+ G- u, M0 _, i* ]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
1 V- c$ Z6 ]$ Y2 O& Scircumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even" I& t8 Z2 ]4 w ]- ^# b
clinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,2 e( V/ G6 }# J
and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.0 y( _- I4 v6 o- D9 |
But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.
7 w, l5 ]) u8 ORemember the ones you giggled at in sixth grade? "...And the cock& M0 S# O( W6 S0 \5 {

the bible. ha ha ha ha. There are some 2-way words, like it is okay for
, X) h7 F6 v AKirk Youdi to say "Roberto Clametti has 2 balls on him.", but he can't
2 s3 C; P) c! P v# vsay "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding" H( ~- h7 k2 e1 Z$ ?2 }& H
them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that
0 e+ X% g7 y6 Z1 {% K# Ggoes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You2 S b w; V' n) N% ~
can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
