Witness the man who raves at the wall Making the shape of his question to Heaven Whether the sun will fall in the evening Will he remember the lesson… - Roger Waters

My mother told me I said to her, at age three, 'I'm going to go to Italy and get my father in a tractor.' 'You've never seen quite so fierce a little boy as you were,' she told me. She tried to explain that I couldn't get my father in a tractor. Apparently I looked at her and narrowed my eyes and said 'In that case, I'm going in a double-decker bus,' and stomped off. Which is kind of funny, but it's very sad, as well."

And now from where I stand
Upon this hill I plundered from the pool
I look around, I search the skies
I shade my eyes, so nearly blind
And I see signs of half remembered days
I hear bells that chime in strange familiar ways
I recognise........
The hope you kindle in your eyes

They like a bomb-proof Cadillac
Air-conditioned, gold taps
Back-seat gun rack, Platinum hub caps
They pick horses for courses
They're the market forces
They like order, make-up, limelight, power
Game shows, rodeos, Star Wars, TV
They're The Powers That Be
If you see them come, you better run
