It’s Bad for Ya by George Carlin

Enjoy one last round of comic gold from the late great George Carlin on It's Bad for Ya ($14).

As an audio recording of Carlin's 14th and final HBO comedy special, It's Bad for Ya covers ground both new and old, including the advantages of being old, and our bizarre preoccupation with bullshit.

For those of you who want the full experience, the entire show will be available on DVD this fall.

George Carlin - The Reining King of Comedy Has Died...


Today is a very sad day for the comedy world, George Carlin, the reining king of comedy has died.

Carlin, who had a history of heart trouble, died of heart failure Sunday in Los Angeles, according to publicist Jeff Abraham. Carlin went into St. John's Health Center on Sunday afternoon, complaining of chest pain, and died at 5:55 p.m. PT. He was 71. I personally will miss his genius...


I'm aware some stare at my hair.
In fact, to be fair,
Some really despair of my hair.
But I don't care,
Cause they're not aware,
Nor are they debonair.
In fact, they're just square.

They see hair down to there,
Say, "Beware" and go off on a tear!
I say, "No fair!
"A head that's bare is really nowhere.
So be like a bear, be fair with your hair!
Show it you care.
Wear it to there.
Or to there.
Or to there, if you dare!

My wife bought some hair at a fair, to use as a spare.
Did I care?Au contraire!
Spare hair is fair!
In fact, hair can be rare.
Fred Astaire got no hair,
Nor does a chair,
Nor a chocolate eclair,
And where is the hair on a pear?
Nowhere, mon frere!

So now that I've shared this affair of the hair,
I'm going to repair to my lair and use Nair,
do you care?
