In The Flesh?
So
ya
Thought
ya
Might
like to go to the show
To
feel the warm thrill of confusion
That
space cadet glow
Tell
me is something eluding you sunshine?
Is
this not what you expected to see?
If
you'd like to find out what's behind these cold eyes?
You'll
just have to claw your way through the
Disguise
The Thin Ice
Momma
loves her baby
And
Daddy loves you too
And
the sea may look warm to you Babe
And
the sky may look blue
Ooooh
Babe
Ooooh
Baby Blue
Ooooh
Babe
If
you should go skating
On
the thin ice of modern life
Dragging
behind you the silent reproach
Of
a million tear stained eyes
Don't
be surprised, when a crack in the ice
Appears
under your feet
You
slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With
your fear flowing out behind you
As
you claw the thin ice
Another Brick In The Wall (Part 1)
Daddy's
flown across the ocean
Leaving
just a memory
A
snap shot in the family album
Daddy
what else did you leave for me
Daddy
what d'ya leave behind for me
All
in all it was all just a brick in the wall
All
in all it was all just bricks in the wall
The Happiest Days Of Our Lives
When
we grew up and went to school
There
were certain teachers who would
Hurt
the children any way they could
By
pouring their derision
Upon
anything we did
And
exposing every weakness
However
carefully hidden by the kids
But
in the town it was well known
When
they got home at night, their fat and
Psycopathic
wives would thrash them
Within
inches of their lives
Another Brick In The Wall (Part 2)
We
don't need no education
We
don't need no thought control
No
dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers
leave the kids alone
Hey
teacher leave us kids alone
All
in all it's just another brick in the wall
All
in all you're just another brick in the wall
We
don't need no education
We
don't need no thought control
No
dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers
leave the kids alone
Hey
teacher leave us kids alone
All
in all you're just another brick in the wall
All
in all you're just another brick in the wall
Mother
Mother

Mother

Mother

Ooooh

Mother

Nightmares

Hush

Mother,

Goodbye Blue Sky
Oooooooo
ooo ooo ooooh
Did
you see the frightened ones
Did
you hear the falling bombs
Did
you ever wonder
Why
we had to run for shelter
When
the promise of a brave new world
Unfurled
beneath a clear blue sky
Oooooooo
ooo ooooo oooh
Did
you see the frightened ones
Did
you hear the falling bombs
The
flames are all long gone
But
the pain lingers on
Goodbye
blue sky
Goodbye
blue sky
Goodbye
Goodbye
Empty Spaces
What
shall we use to fill the empty
Spaces
where we used to talk
How
shall I fill the final places
How
shall I complete the wall
Young Lust
I
am just a new boy
A
stranger in this town
Where
are all the good times
Who's
gonna show this stranger around?
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty woman
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty girl
Will
some woman in this desert land
Make
me feel like a real man
Take
this rock and roll refugee
Oooh
Babe set me free
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty woman
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty girl.
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty woman
Ooooooooh
I need a dirty girl.
One Of My Turns
Day
after day, love turns grey
Like
the skin of a dying man
Night
after night, we pretend it's all right
But
I have grown older and
You
have grown colder and
Nothing
is very much fun any more.
And
I can feel one of my turns coming on.
I
feel cold as razor blade
Tight
as a tourniquet
Dry
as a funeral drum,
Run
to the bedroom, in the suitcase on the left
You'll
find my favorite axe
Don't
look so frightened
This
is just a passing phase
Just
one of my bad days
Would
you like to watch T. V.?
Or
get between the sheets?
Or
contemplate the silent freeway?
Would
you like something to eat?
Would
you like to learn to fly?
Would
you like to see me try?
Would
you like call the cops?
Do
you think it's time I stopped?
Why
are you running away?
Don't Leave Me Now
Ooooh
Babe
Don't
leave me now
Don't
say it's the end of the road
Remember
the flowers I sent
I
need you Babe
To
put through the shredder
In
front of my friends
Ooooh
Babe
Don't
leave me now
How
could you go?
When
you know how I need You
To
beat to a pulp on a Saturday night
Ooooh
Babe
Don't
leave me now
How
can you treat me this way
Running
away
Ooooh
Babe
Why
are you running away?
Ooooh
Babe!
Another Brick In The Wall (Part 3)
I
don't need no arms around me
I
don't need no drugs to calm me
I
have seen the writing on the wall
Don't
think I need anything at all
No
don't think I'll need anything at all
All
in all it was all just bricks in the wall
All
in all you were just bricks in the wall
Goodbye Cruel World
Goodbye
cruel world
I'm
leaving you today
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
all you people
There's
nothing you can say
To
make me change
My
mind
Goodbye.
Hey You
Hey
you ! out there in the cold
Getting
lonely, getting old, can you feel me
Hey
you ! Standing in the aisles
With
itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me
Hey
you ! don't help them to bury the light
Don't
give in without a fight.
Hey
you ! out there on your own
sitting
naked by the phone would you touch me
Hey
you ! with your ear against the wall
Waiting
for someone to call out would you touch me
Hey
you ! would you help me to carry the stone
Open
your heart, I'm coming home
But
it was only a fantasy
The
wall was too high as you can see
No
matter how he tried he could not break free
And
the worms ate into his brain.
Hey
you ! out there on the road
Doing
what you're told, can you help me
Hey
you ! out there beyond the wall
Breaking
bottles in the hall, can you help me
Hey
you ! don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together
we stand, divided we fall.
Is There Anybody Out There?
Is
there anybody out there?
Nobody Home
I've
got a little black book with my poems in
I've
got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in
When
I'm a good dog they sometimes throw me a bone in
I
got elastic bands keeping my shoes on
Got
those swollen hand blues.
Got
thirteen channels of shit on the T.V. to choose from
I've
got electric light
And
I've got second sight
I've
got amazing powers of observation
And
that is how I know
When
I try to get through
On
the telephone to you
There'll
be nobody home
I've
got the obligatory Hendrix perm
And
I've got the inevitable pinhole burns
All
down the front of my favorite satin shirt
I've
got nicotine stains on my fingers
I've
got a silver spoon on a chain
I've
got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains
I've
got wild staring eyes
I've
got a strong urge to fly
But
I've got nowhere to fly to
Ooooh
Babe when I pick up the phone
There's
still nobody home
I've
got a pair of Gohills boots
And
I've got fading roots.
Vera
Does
anybody here remember Vera Lynn
Remember
how she said that
We
would meet again
Some
sunny day
Vera!
Vera!
What
has become of you
Does
anybody else in here
Feel
the way I do ?
Bring The Boys Back Home
Bring
the boys back home
Bring
the boys back home
Don't
leave the children on their own
Bring
the boys back home
Comfortably Numb
Hello,
Is
there anybody in there
Just
nod if you can hear me
Is
there anyone at home
Come
on now
I
hear you're feeling down
I
can ease your pain
And
get you on your feet again
Relax
I'll
need some information first
Just
the basic facts
Can
you show me where it hurts
There
is no pain, you are receding
A
distant ship smoke on the horizon
You
are coming through in waves
Your
lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When
I was a child I had a fever
My
hands felt just like two balloons
Now
I've got that feeling once again
I
can't explain, you would not understand
This
is not how I am
I
have become comfortably numb
O.K.
Just
a little pin prick
There'll
be no more aaaaaaaah!
But
you may feel a little sick
Can
you stand up?
I
do belive it's working, good
That'll
keep you going through the show
Come
on it's time to go.
There
is no pain you are receding
A
distant ship smoke on the horizon
You
are only coming through in waves
Your
lips move but I can't hear what you're saying
When
I was a child
I
caught a fleeting glimpse
Out
of the corner of my eye
I
turned to look but it was gone
I
cannot put my finger on it now
The
child is grown
The
dream is gone
And
I have become
Comfortably
numb.
The Show Must Go On
Oooh
Ma Oooh Pa
Must
the show go on
Oooh
Pa take me home
Oooh
Ma let me go
There
must be some mistake
I
didn't mean to let them
Take
away my soul
Am
I too old is it too late
Oooh
Ma Oooh Pa
Where
has the feeling gone?
Oooh
Ma Oooh Pa
Will
I remember the songs?
Oooooh
aah th show must go on.
In The Flesh
So
ya
Thought
ya
Might
like to
go
to the show
To
feel the warm thrill of confusion
That
space cadet glow
I've
got some bad news for you sunshine
Pink
isn't well he stayed back at the hotel
And
they sent us along as a surrogate band
And
we're going to find out where you fans
Really
stand
Are
there any queers in the theatre tonight
Get
'em up against the wall
That
one looks Jewish
And
that one's a coon
Who
let all this riff raff into the room
There's
one smoking a joint and
Another
with spots
If
I had my way I'd have all of you shot
Run Like Hell
Run,
run, run, run (repeat line four times)
You
better make your face up in
Your
favorite disguise
With
your button down lips and your
Roller
blind eyes
With
your empty smile
And
your hungry heart
Feel
the bile rising from your guilty past
With
your nerves in tatters
When
the cockleshell shatters
And
the hammers batter
Down
the door
You
better run
Run,
run, run, run (repeat line four times)
You
better run all day
And
run all night
And
keep your dirty feelings
Deep
inside. And if your
Takin'
your girlfriend
Out
tonight
You
better park the car
Well
out of sight
'Cos
if they catch you in the back seat
Trying
to pick her locks
They're
gonna send you back to mother
In
a cardboard box
You
better run
Waiting For The Worms
Ooooh
you cannot reach me now
Ooooh
no matter how you try
Goodbye
cruel world it's over
Walk
on by
Sitting
in a bunker here behind my wall
Waiting
for the worms to come
In
perfect isolation here behind my wall
Waiting
for the worms to come
Waiting
to cut out the deadwood
Waiting
to clean up the city
Waiting
to follow the worms
Waiting
to put on a black shirt
Waiting
to weed out the weaklings
Waiting
to smash in their windows
And
kick in their doors
Waiting
for the final solution
To
strengthen the strain
Waiting
to follow the worms
Waiting
to turn on the showers v And fire the ovens
Waiting
for the queers and the coons
And
the reds and the Jews
Waiting
to follow the worms
Would
you like to see Britannia
Rule
again my friend
All
you have to do is follow the worms
Would
you like to send our coloured cousins
Home
again my friend
All
you need to do is follow the worms.
Stop
Stop
I
wanna go home
Take
off this uniform
And
leave the show
And
I'm waiting here in this cell
Because
I have to know
Have
I been guilty all this time
The Trial
Good
morning Worm your honour
The
crowd will plainly show
The
prisoner who now stands before you
Was
caught red handed showing feelings
Showing
feelings of an almost human nature
This
will not do
CALL
THE SCHOOLMASTER
I
always said he'd come to no good
In
the end your honour
If
they'd let me have my way I could
Have
flayed him into shape
But
my hands were tied
The
bleeding hearts and artists
Let
him get away with murder
Let
me hammer him today
Crazy
toys in the attic I am crazy
Truly
gone fishing
Crazy
toys in the attic he is crazy
They
must have taken my marbles away
You
little shit, you're in it now
I
hope they throw away the key
You
should talked to me more often
Than
you did, but no you had to
Go
your own way. Have you broken any homes up lately?
"Just
five minutes Worm your honour him and me alone"
Baaaaaabe
Come
to mother baby let me hold you in my arms
M'red
I never wanted him to get in any trouble
Why'd
he ever have to leave me
Worm
your honour let me take him home
Crazy
over the rainbow I am crazy
Bars
in the window
There
must have been a door there in the wall
When
I came in
Crazy
over the rainbow he is crazy
The
evidence before the court is
Incontravertible,
there's no need for
The
jury to retire
In
all my years of judging
I
have never heard before of
Some
one more deserving
The
full penalty of law
The
way you made them suffer
Your
exquisite wife and mother
Fills
me with an urge to defecate
But
my friend you have revealed your deepest fear
I
sentence you to be exposed before your peers
Tear
down the wall
Outside The Wall
All
alone, or in twos
The
ones who really love you
Walk
up and down outside the wall
Some
hand in hand
Some
gathering together in bands
The
bleeding hearts and the artists
Make
their stand
And
when they've given you their all
Some
stagger and fall after all it's not easy
banging
your heart against some mad buggers
Wall
