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.. ?8 G# X" W" l/ n, X; X6 c2 a9 t
I want to tell you something about words that I think is important.

There are some people that are not into all the words.

# U8 k6 t' P, t" M3 A- sThere are 400,000 words in the English language and there are 7& c- H6 x# t8 l& @1 F
of them you can't say on television. What a ratio that is.

Bad Words. That's what they told us they were, remember?
" q1 o- q1 p. r& `" d- I"That's a bad word!" No bad words, bad thoughts, bad intentions,

sounding word. It sounds like a nickname, right? "Hey, Tits, come here,

not belong on the list. Actually none of the words belong on the list,; H0 F3 @! K7 ? W# {9 a
but you can understand why some of them are there. I'm not

some of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and
% b" _- k; P8 GMotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on
4 e" m7 N2 w" V! [- a7 C4 Zthere. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.1 M; ]4 E4 B; u& A; K
I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend- q. S+ g7 Q) M0 m. X0 i R
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at, x6 x+ ]3 D" p$ m
you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."* I2 q5 M9 R; u- s$ Q$ Q
It's like an assualt on you. We mentioned Shit earlier, and 2 of the
x; Z+ k8 a4 cother 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go
- I# e7 `. s) S0 b/ ntogether of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that
M) T& G7 }8 s3 ?Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were( g8 Y7 h( f- h8 K
certain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I: S6 L, |7 v5 F; _( W
don't mind Fuck and Shit but 'P' and 'C' are out.", which led to such% G7 Y1 d# o# V+ [
stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."

hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,0 ^0 c s/ ?: J7 d% x( f3 R: H1 I
"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

I 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,

' m6 h; X4 x' w5 XBut there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.3 l% _5 _' O* ]% e5 h0 E, w

say "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding
