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.

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

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

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

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

( |7 z: Y3 Y9 ~/ I" \) a& Fsome of those words got on the list, like CockSucker and8 k% l+ r& y3 \ @
MotherFucker. Those are heavyweight words. There is a lot going on S! t& O. w4 l6 a/ l7 R
there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.+ c& ?- f/ C! x- j6 I4 K; L
I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend7 f" f3 B! A# |2 u) }6 g
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at

other 4-letter Anglo-Saxon words are Piss and Cunt, which go' k$ \* g6 ?5 D; H2 P
together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that# S( c- D3 @$ A1 | ]. _
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were
' w% W0 a4 F3 d; N+ O, V- k! h7 ncertain ladies that said "Those are the 2 I am not going to say. I

stupid sentences as "Okay you fuckers, I'm going to tinckle now."

hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,

a great sentence. I wish I knew who said it first. I agree with that but& P. e- n# ?* `: C q. i
I like to take it a step further. I'd like to substitute the word Fuck for2 f6 Y2 f: T0 u# W" u, E1 D R/ p
the word Kill in all of those movie cliches we grew up with. "Okay,

So maybe next year I'll have a whole fuckin' ramp on the N word.2 u8 _6 V- |% q. C% w9 F% W, R; N
I hope so. Those are the 7 you can never say on television, under any9 h$ W2 @, n9 k$ p/ q
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even2 d% C3 U7 w i
clinically. You cannot weave them in on the panel with Doc, and Ed,/ |' }# H4 {9 T
and Johnny. I mean, it is just impossible. Forget tHose 7. They're out.3 V# ^+ y9 \5 I
But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.

them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that3 K+ r4 y j8 F5 p9 {
goes with that one is Prik. It's okay if it happens to your finger. You. @! U1 G3 a3 m& C) h0 v# l' A
