Information on the rapper
George Denis Patrick Carlin was born on May 12th, 1937, in Manhattan, New York. He was a stand-up comic, actor, and author. He became known for his black comedy and reflections on politics, the English language, psychology, religion, and various taboo subjects. One of his most famous routines, a monologue titled "Seven Words You Can Never Say on Television", was central to the FCC v. Pacifica Foundation U.S. Supreme Court case that helped define the extent to which the federal government could regulate speech on broadcast television and radio in the United States.
Carlin had also appeared in several films, known for such movie roles as Rufus from Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and Fillmore from Cars along with his television role as the voice of the narrator/Mr. Conductor for the Thomas the Tank Engine series.
His final HBO special, It's Bad for Ya, was filmed less than four months before he passed away from cardiac arrest. He was later posthumously awarded the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor. He was also ranked second in two lists of best comedians each by Comedy Central and the Rolling Stone magazine.
Lyrics
Here we go, it's George Carlin. I'm a mad dog snarling.
I was born in the Bronx and brought up in Harlem.
I'm dope at spitting bars and getting crowds hardy harring,
While you're the least threatening black dude since Carlton!
Now, there's seven words you can't say on a TV set,
But this is the pissing fucking cunting Internet
And my cocksucking motherfucking bits are the tits!
Non-stopping brain droppings like my wit’s got the shits!
So call this Pryor-rhea: I doo doo on you constantly!
No pauses in my punchlines, no commas in my comedy!
You'll be down for the count when this counter-culture counterman
Serves you with a stand-uppercut you can't counter, damn!
I'm Wilder than Gene when I'm killing a beat!
You're steady taking second place, now that's a Silver Streak!
