The following is transcript of one of Carlin's program, not the above unfortunately, but it helps to read it.
% Q& C: [" R2 ^5 Z- H" h. T e7 L
I love words. I thank you for hearing my words.7 l) W K8 p) F; b4 t! j1 P
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.
+ s0 P. |& N0 gThey're my work, they're my play, they're my passion.9 T/ Y; c) \4 i- ^
Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.
; T* `1 }8 v6 Z1 c, Ithen we assign a word to a thought and we're stuck with that word for) H% z9 c$ |1 e5 l- k
that thought, so be careful with words. I like to think that the same J& S, Y" K7 l; e/ Q
words that hurt can heal, it is a matter of how you pick them.+ h% U* Y& O5 p4 f* b
There are some people that are not into all the words.: p% J* b) C( \" j V
There are some that would have you not use certain words.0 |& ]2 Z8 a2 e1 e/ g
There are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7
# Y. w! R2 w" H- ]of them you can't say on television. What a ratio that is.8 K9 [6 e( P) r$ e8 |
399,993 to 7. They must really be bad. They'd have to be outrageous `! n/ R* A" w; O
to be seperated from a group that large. All of you over here,you 7,
0 m1 E- @. e4 }) X* lBad Words. That's what they told us they were, remember?8 [, p- p7 O( {: J
"That's a bad word!" No bad words, bad thoughts, bad intentions,
$ U3 J9 \5 ^; G6 Yand words. You know the 7, don't you, that you can't say on television?
; V2 ~. c4 Q7 E; _3 l: n"Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, CockSucker, MotherFucker, and Tits"

"Shit, Piss, Fuck, Cunt, CockSucker, MotherFucker, and Tits"
: D1 G: S) L5 r% _3 EWow! ...and Tits doesn't even belong on the list. That is such a friendly* ~" Z' B6 X5 k' {* I
sounding word. It sounds like a nickname, right? "Hey, Tits, come here,7 z3 P- p; v, ]- e" g+ E
man. Hey Tits, meet Toots. Toots, Tits. Tits, Toots." It sounds like a

3 L/ } o/ T2 G3 k9 N/ o: IOne." That's true. I usually switch off. But I mean, that word does
. u" h- C; T- z9 ^! F. S) Jnot belong on the list. Actually none of the words belong on the list,: U& m; r/ O, Y7 X; z8 E( ~
but you can understand why some of them are there. I'm not5 }! K$ O) S, H2 h' o9 b
completely insensetive to people's feelings. I can understand why
2 |5 L* ~' {8 t) ?: U% N9 p9 {some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and
1 X5 R& E1 u) g* t- ^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

you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go
3 X3 ~" |! K: b" c+ o( ptogether of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that$ P, V" q# X, H( f
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were. m6 {6 T! b* `' Q: o' n I
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I2 N* |1 f) _# y% b+ S
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such8 m! C& \! N$ k
stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."

0 @! C! ]0 x' [2 I7 K6 Tit takes to long. But I do mean that. I think the word Fuck is a very
9 y- ]3 R2 a( g2 G' r9 J7 Yimprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to

than 2 people trying to kill one another. I, of course, can agree. It is
8 V$ r5 V5 Q+ H, I$ Xa great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but
/ t P7 N: x# L$ wI like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for( Z4 w& L6 G7 B6 C: W4 e
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) B9 B; M" ?, F, A V
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even
% s* ]8 u" ~& Uclinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,

But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.
4 b; P( W1 Y1 _! C3 [Remember the ones you giggled at in sixth grade? "...And the cock

" M6 v0 I- q) ~: Y5 P1 [the bible. ha ha ha ha. There are some 2-way words, like it is okay for
( G, i3 R7 ? i B- u( @Kirk Youdi to say "Roberto Clametti has 2 balls on him.", but he can't& H% o+ E5 t* p! k& r) K+ H0 |5 G
say "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding
* Q, a' J6 ~9 a) P$ `) ]% wthem. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that# G* f) p9 V/ c ?* S& }
goes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You
# E" U* ?6 x/ S0 ^1 ?can prik your finger but don't finger your prik. No,no. |
