Pink Floyd Lyrics...
Us And Them
Album: The Dark Side of the Moon
Us, and them-
And after all we're only ordinary men.
-
Me, and you.
-
God only knows it's noz what we would choose to do.
-
Forward he cried from the rear
-
and the front rank died.
-
And the general sat and the lines on the map
-
moved from side to side.
-
Black and blue
-
And who knows which is which and who is who.
-
Up and down.
-
But in the end it's only round and round.
-
Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
-
The poster bearer cried.
-
Listen son, said the man with the gun
-
There's room for you inside.
-
-
"I mean, they're not gunna kill ya, so if you give 'em a quick short,
-
sharp, shock, they won't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off
-
lightly, 'cos I would've given him a thrashing - I only hit him once!
-
It was only a difference of opinion, but really...I mean good manners
-
don't cost nothing do they, eh?"
-
-
Down and out
-
It can't be helped but there's a lot of it about.
-
With, without.
-
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about?
-
Out of the way, it's a busy day
-
I've got things on my mind.
-
For the want of the price of tea and a slice
-
The old man died.
-
