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.

Bad Words. That's what they told us they were, remember?

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go. M: W8 G; c# M, o
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that( I( z9 _- ~% Q
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were3 G8 `5 l' p* |9 w/ S& `
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I6 L F& C5 c0 |- y0 {' G% T* P+ O
