Rights? You think you got rights?
They're just temporary privileges!
You can't say 'em, they're forbidden, taboo
Broadcasting truths we all knew
Society's limits, he tore through
"Seven Dirty Words" you cannot do
We're all diseased, it's a Carlin show
He told the truths that hit hard, blow by blow
"No one's really free," he'd let us know
Punching up, never bowing low
A house ain't a home, just a pile of stuff
Collecting things we never get enough
Material madness, consumer bluff
Carlin laughed, called out all our fluff
"Think of how stupid the average person is,
And realize half of them are stupider than that!"
Chopped 'em down to just a pair
Keep your beliefs out of my hair!
Religion, politics, he laid bare
A comic sage with flair to spare
We're all diseased, it's a Carlin show
He told the truths that hit hard, blow by blow
"Life is a zero-sum game," he'd crow
With every punchline, a new low
Baseball's soft, football's rough
He joked about how we strut our stuff
Our games, our wars, all tough enough
Carlin's words never bluff
From Gulf wars to climate fears
He skewered folly for all those years
"Planet's fine, the people?" Jeers
Carlin's wisdom, beyond his peers
We're all diseased, it's a Carlin show
He told the truths that hit hard, blow by blow
"No one's really free," he'd let us know
Punching up, never bowing low
We're all diseased, it's a Carlin show
He told the truths that hit hard, blow by blow
"No one's really free," he'd let us know
Punching up
We're all diseased, it's a Carlin show
He told the truths that hit hard, blow by blow
"No one's really free," he'd let us know
Punching up, never bowing low
"It's all bullshit, folks, all of it!"
Life's last laughs, he'd never quit
Calling out the farce, bit by bit
In a world gone mad, he was the wit
From the front row of life, we've seen the show
Carlin's words, a mind's echo
The truth's sharp blow, it's our manifesto
Carry it on, let the whole world know
