Pink Floyd - The Wall Lyrics - Full Album (2024)

In the Flesh? Lyrics

    "....we came in?"

So ya
Thought ya
Might like to go to theshow.
To feel the warm thrill of confusion
That space cadet glow.
Tellme is something eluding you, sunshine?
Is this not what you expected tosee?
If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes
You'll just haveto claw your way through this disguise.

    "Lights! Turn on the sound effects! Action!"
    "Drop it, drop it on 'em!Drop it on them!!!!!"

The Thin Ice Lyrics

Momma loves her baby
And daddy loves you too.
And the sea may look warm toyou babe
And the sky may look blue
But ooooh Baby
Ooooh babyblue
Oooooh babe.

If you should go skating
On the thin ice ofmodern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a milliontear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice
Appears underyour feet.
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fearflowing out behind you
As you claw the thin ice.

Another Brick in the Wall Part 1 Lyrics

Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
Snapshot in thefamily album
Daddy what else did you leave for me?
Daddy, what'd'ja leavebehind for me?!?
All in all it was just a brick in the wall.
All in all itwas all just bricks in the wall.

    "You! Yes, you! Stand still laddy!"

The Happiest Days of our Lives Lyrics

When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers whowould
Hurt the children in any way they could

    "OOF!" [someone being hit]

By pouring their derision
Upon anythingwe did
And exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by thekids
But in the town, it was well known
When they got home at night, theirfat and
Psychopathic wives would thrash them
Within inches of theirlives.

Another Brick in the Wall Part 2 Lyrics

We don't need no education
We dont need no thought control
No darksarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers!Leave them kids alone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
Allin all you're just another brick in the wall.

We don't need noeducation
We dont need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in theclassroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kidsalone!
All in all it's just another brick in the wall.
All in all you'rejust another brick in the wall.

    "Wrong, Do it again!"
    "If you don't eat yer meat, you can't have anypudding. How can you
    have any pudding if you don't eat yer meat?"
    "You!Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!"

Mother Lyrics

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb
Mother do you think they'll like the song
Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls
Ooooh aah, Mother should I build a wall
Mother should I run for president
Mother should I trust the government
Mother will they put me in the firing line
Ooooh aah, is it it just a waste of time
Hush now baby don't you cry
Mama's gonna make all of your
Nightmares come true
Mama's gonna put all of her fears into you
Mama's gonna keep you right here
Under her wing
she won't let you fly but she might let you sing
Mama will keep baby cosy and warm
Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe
Of course Mama's gonna help build the wall

Mother do think she's good enough for me
Mother do think she's dangerous to me
Mother will she tear your little boy apart
Oooh aah, mother will she break my heart
Hush now baby, baby don't you cry
Mama's gonna check out all your girl friends for you
Mama won't let anyone dirty get through
Mama's gonna wait up till you come in
Mama will always find out where
You've been
Mamma's gonna keep baby healthy and clean
Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe Ooooh Babe
You'll always be a baby to me
Mother, did it need to be so high.

Goodbye Blue Sky Lyrics

    "Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the sky"

Did you see thefrightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder whywe had to run for shelter when the
promise of a brave new world unfurledbeneath a clear blue
sky?

Did you see the frightened ones?
Didyou hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingerson.

Goodbye, blue sky
Goodbye, blue sky.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.

    "The 11:15 from Newcastle is now approaching"
    "The 11:18 arrival...."

One of My Turns Lyrics

    "Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?
    [Film inbackground: "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to startle you!]
    "This place isbigger than our apartment!
    [Film: "Let me know when you're entering aroom"
    "Yes sir!"]
    "erm, Can I get a drink of water?
    [Film: "I waswondering about ..."]

Day after day, love turnsgrey
Like the skin of a dying man.
Night after night, we pretend its allright
But I have grown older and
You have grown colder and
Nothing isvery much fun any more.
And I can feel one of my turns coming on.
I feelcold as a razor blade,
Tight as a tourniquet,
Dry as a funeraldrum.

Run to the bedroom,
In the suitcase on the left
You'll findmy favorite axe.
Don't look so frightened
This is just a passingphase,
One of my bad days.
Would you like to watch T.V.?
Or get betweenthe sheets?
Or contemplate the silent freeway?
Would you like something toeat?
Would you like to learn to fly?
Would'ya?
Would you like to see metry?

Would you like to call the cops?
Do you think it's time Istopped?
Why are you running away?

Don't Leave Me Now Lyrics

Ooooh, babe
Don't leave me now.
Don't say it's the end of theroad.
Remember the flowers I sent.
I need you, babe
To put through theshredder
In front of my friends
Ooooh Babe.
Dont leave me now.
Howcould you go?
When you know how I need you
To beat to a pulp on aSaturday night
Ooooh Babe.
How could you treat me this way?
Runningaway.
I need you, Babe.
Why are you running away?
Oooooh Babe!

    Pink: "Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh!"
    "This RomanMeal bakery thought you'd like to know."

And I dont need no drugs to calm me.

No! Don't think I'll needanything at all.
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
All in allyou were all just bricks in the wall.

Hey You Lyrics

Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old
Can you feelme?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles
Can you feel me?
Hey you, dont help them to bury the light
Don't givein without a fight.

Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked bythe phone
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against thewall
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 cominghome.

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high,
As you cansee.
No matter how he tried,
He could not break free.
And the wormsate into his brain.

Hey you, standing in the road
always doing whatyou're told,
Can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond thewall,
Breaking bottles in the hall,
Can you help me?
Hey you, don'ttell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.

    [Click of TV being turned on]
    "Well, only got an hour of daylight left.Better get started"
    "Isnt it unsafe to travel at night?"
    "It'll be a lotless safe to stay here. You're father's gunna pick up our trail beforelong"
    "Can Loca ride?"
    "Yeah, I can ride... Magaret, time to go! Maigret,thank you for everything"
    "Goodbye Chenga"
    "Goodbye miss ..."
    "I'll beback"

Nobody Home Lyrics

    "Alright, I'll take care of them part of the time, but there's somebody elsethat needs taking care of in Washington"
    "Who's that?"
    "RosePilchitt!"
    "Rose Pilchitt? Who's that?"
    [Kid screams in background.foreground: "Shut Up!"]
    "36-24-36 [laughter] does that answer yourquestion?"
    [foreground: "Oi! I've got a little black book with me poemsin!"]
    "Who's she?"
    "She was 'Miss Armoured Division' in 1961 ..."

I've got a little black book with my poems in.
Got a bag with atoothbrush and a comb in.
When I'm a good dog, they sometimes throw me a bonein.

I got elastic bands keepin my shoes on.
Got those swollen handblues.
Got thirteen channels of sh*t on the T.V. to choose from.
I've gotelectric light.
And I've got second sight.
And amazing powers ofobservation.
And that is how I know
When I try to get through
On thetelephone to you
There'll be nobody home.

I've got the obligatoryHendrix perm.
And the inevitable pinhole burns
All down the front of myfavorite satin shirt.
I've got nicotine stains on my fingers.
I've got asilver spoon on a chain.
I've got a grand piano to prop up my mortalremains.

I've got wild staring eyes.
And I've got a strong urge tofly.
But I got nowhere to fly to.
Ooooh, Babe when I pick up thephone

    "Surprise, surprise, surprise..." (from Gomer Pyle show)

There's stillnobody home.

I've got a pair of Gohills boots
and I got fadingroots.

    "Where the hell are you?"
    "Over 47 german planes were destroyed with theloss of only 15 of our own aircraft"
    "Where the hell are youSimon?"
    [Machine gun sound, followed by plane crashing]

Bring the boys back home.
Don't leave thechildren on their own, no, no.

Comfortably Numb Lyrics

Hello?
Is there anybody in there?
Just nod if you can hear me.
Is thereanyone at home?
Come on, now,
I hear you're feeling down.
Well I canease your pain
Get you on your feet again.
Relax.
I'll need someinformation first.
Just the basic facts.
Can you show me where ithurts?

There is no pain you are receding
A distant ship, smoke on thehorizon.
You are only coming through in waves.
Your lips move but I can'thear what you're saying.
When I was a child I had a fever
My hands feltjust like two balloons.
Now I've got that feeling once again
I can'texplain you would not understand
This is not how I am.
I have becomecomfortably numb.

O.K.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no moreaaaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I dobelieve it's working, good.
That'll keep you going through the show
Comeon 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 movebut I can't hear what you're saying.
When I was a child
I caught afleeting glimpse
Out of the corner of my eye.
I turned to look but it wasgone
I cannot put my finger on it now
The child is grown,
The dream isgone.
I have become comfortably numb.

The Show Must Go On Lyrics

Ooooh, Ma, Oooh Pa
Must the show go on?
Ooooh, Pa. Take me home
Ooooh,Ma. Let me go

There must be some mistake
I didnt mean to let them
Take away my soul.
Am I too old, is it too late?

Ooooh, Ma, OooohPa,
Where has the feeling gone?
Ooooh, Ma, Ooooh Pa,
Will I rememberthe songs?
The show must go on.

In The Flesh Lyrics

So ya
Thought ya
Might like to
Go to the show.
To feel that warmthrill of confusion,
That space cadet glow.
I've got some bad news for yousunshine,
Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel
And they sent usalong as a surrogate band
We're gonna find out where you fans reallystand.

Are there any queers in the theater tonight?
Get them upagainst the wall!
There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right tome,
Get him up against the wall!
That one looks Jewish!
And that one'sa coon!
Who let all of this riff-raff into the room?
There's one smoking ajoint,
And another with spots!
If I had my way,
I'd have all of youshot!

Run Like Hell Lyrics

    "Pink Floyd, Pink Floyd"

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run,
Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run.
You better make your face upin
Your favorite disguise.
With your button down lips and your
Rollerblind eyes.
With your empty smile
And your hungry heart.
Feel the bilerising from your guilty past.
With your nerves in tatters
When theco*ckleshell shatters
And the hammers batter
Down the door.
You'dbetter run.

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run,
Run, Run, Run,Run, Run, Run, Run, Run.
You better run all day
And run allnight.
Keep your dirty feelings
Deep inside.
And if you're taking yourgirlfriend
Out tonight
You'd better park the car
Well out ofsight.
Cause if they catch you in the back seat
Trying to pick herlocks,
They're gonna send you back to mother
In a cardboard box.
Youbetter run.

    "Hey, open up! HaHaHaHaHaaaaaaaaaa!
    [sound of car skidding, followed byloud scream]
    "Hammer, Hammer"

Waiting for the Worms Lyrics

    "Eins, zwei, drei, alle!"

Ooooh, you cannot reach me now
Ooooh, nomatter how you try
Goodbye, cruel world, it's over
Walk onby.

Sitting in a bunker here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms tocome.
In perfect isolation here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms tocome.

    We're {waiting to succeed} and going to convene outside Brixton
    Town Hallwhere we're going to be...

Waiting to cut out the deadwood.
Waiting toclean up the city.
Waiting to follow the worms.
Waiting to put on a blackshirt.
Waiting to weed out the weaklings.
Waiting to smash in theirwindows
And kick in their doors.
Waiting for the final solution
Tostrengthen the strain.
Waiting to follow the worms.
Waiting to turn on theshowers
And fire the ovens.
Waiting for the queens and the coons
andthe reds and the jews.
Waiting to follow the worms.

Would you like tosee Britannia
Rule again, my friend?
All you have to do is follow theworms.
Would you like to send our colored cousins
Home again, myfriend?

All you need to do is follow the worms.

    The Worms will convene outside Brixton Bus Station. We'll be moving along atabout 12 o'clock down Stockwell Road {.... ......} {Abbot's Road } {.....}twelve minutes to three we'll be moving along Lambeth Road towards VauxhallBridge. Now when we get to the other side of Vauxhall Bridge we're inWestminster {Borough } area. It's quite possible we may encounter some {.....}by the way we go. {... ..}."

Because I have to know.

The Trial Lyrics

Good morning, Worm your honor.
The crown will plainly show
The prisonerwho now stands before you
Was caught red-handed showing feelings
Showingfeelings of an almost human nature;
This will not do.
Call theschoolmaster!

I always said he'd come to no good
In the end yourhonor.
If they'd let me have my way I could
Have flayed him intoshape.
But my hands were tied,
The bleeding hearts and artists
Let himget away with murder.
Let me hammer him today?

Crazy,
Toys in theattic I am crazy,
Truly gone fishing.
They must have taken my marblesaway.
Crazy, toys in the attic he is crazy.

You little sh*t you're init now,
I hope they throw away the key.
You should have talked to me moreoften
Than you did, but no! You had to go
Your own way, have you brokenany
Homes up lately?
Just five minutes, Worm your honor,
Him and Me,alone.

Baaaaaaaaaabe!
Come to mother baby, let me hold you
In myarms.
M'lud I never wanted him to
Get in any trouble.
Why'd he everhave to leave me?
Worm, your honor, let me take him home.

Crazy,
Over the rainbow, I am crazy,
Bars in the window.
There must have beena door there in the wall
When I came in.
Crazy, over the rainbow, he iscrazy.

The evidence before the court is
Incontrivertable, there's noneed for
The jury to retire.
In all my years of judging
I have neverheard before
Of someone more deserving
Of the full penaltie oflaw.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife andmother,
Fills me with the urge to defecate!

    "Hey Judge! sh*t on him!"

Since, my friend, you have revealed your
Deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before
Your peers.
Teardown the wall!

Outside the Wall Lyrics

All alone, or in two's,
The ones who really love you
Walk up and downoutside the wall.
Some hand in hand
And some gathered together inbands.
The bleeding hearts and artists
Make their stand.

And whenthey've given you their all
Some stagger and fall, after all it's noteasy
Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.

    "Isn't this where...."
