The Thin Ice [David Gilmour]

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 Oooooh babe. [Roger Waters] 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. _________________________________________________________ Roger Waters

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 wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes You'll just have to claw your way through this disguise. Lights! Roll the sound effects! Action! Drop it on 'em! DROP IT ON 'EM! _________________________________________________________ Roger Waters

"When The Tigers Broke Free" It was just before dawn

One miserable morning in black 'forty four.

When the forward commander

Was told to sit tight

When he asked that his men be withdrawn.

And the Generals gave thanks

As the other ranks held back

The enemy tanks for a while.

And the Anzio bridgehead

Was held for the price

Of a few hundred ordinary lives.

And kind old King George

Sent Mother a note

When he heard that father was gone.

It was, I recall,

In the form of a scroll,

With gold leaf adorned,

And I found it one day

In a drawer of old photographs, hidden away.

And my eyes still grow damp to remember

His Majesty signed

With his own rubber stamp.

It was dark all around.

There was frost in the ground

When the tigers broke free.

And no one survived

From the Royal Fusiliers Company Z.

They were all left behind,

Most of them dead,

The rest of them dying.

And that's how the High Command

Took my daddy from me. _________________________________________________________ continuing with a song as an introduction the concepts of the album. self-imposed isolation, self-destruction, catharsis.
