The following is transcript of one of Carlin's program, not the above unfortunately, but it helps to read it.

Words are all we have, really. We have thoughts but thoughts are fluid.

there. Besides the literal translation and the emotional feeling.$ }# E$ L7 [/ h7 L! U7 \' A
I mean, they're just busy words. There's a lot of syllables to contend; g. \7 ]% ^5 d) {& b7 I
with. And those Ks, those are agressive sounds. They just jump out at% I, v0 [. X7 j0 E8 ?* m& w
you like "coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer. coCKsuCKer, motherfuCKer."

together of course. A little accedental humor there. The reason that1 c8 u. }; X0 L& u. Q7 J. N
Piss and Cunt are on the list is because a long time ago, there were

imprortant word. It is the beginning of life, yet it is a word we use to0 ?6 j) N7 c: W3 S
hurt one another quite often. People much wiser than I am said,

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. d$ r" \$ u. k/ ~7 X- `
circumstanses. You just cannot say them ever ever ever. Not even

But there are some 2-way words, those double-meaning words.

say "I think he hurt his balls on that play, Tony. Don't you? He's holding3 y* l' C y% [7 G W, N$ U8 N
them. He must've hurt them, by God." and the other 2-way word that
