One of The Few When you're one of the few to land on your feet What do you do to make ends meet? Make them mad Make them sad Make them sad Make them add two and two. Make them me Make them you Make them do what you want them to. Make them laugh Make them cry Make them lie down and die. (Waters, One of the Few 1983)

The Gunner’s Dream

The Gunner’s Dream Pt 2 A place to stay Enough to eat Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street Where you can speak out loud About your doubts and fears And what's more no-one ever disappears You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door. You can relax on both sides of the tracks And maniacs don't blow holes in bandsmen by remote control And everyone has recourse to the law And no-one kills the children anymore. And no one kills the children anymore. Night after night Going round and round my brain His dream is driving me insane. In the corner of some foreign field The gunner sleeps tonight. What's done is done. We cannot just write off his final scene. Take heed of his dream. Take heed. (Waters, The Gunner’s Dream 1983)

Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert Brezhnev took Afghanistan. Begin took Beirut. Galtieri took the Union Jack. And Maggie, over lunch one day, Took a cruiser with all hands. Apparently, to make him give it back. (Waters, Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert, 1983)

Quotes “I like to think oysters transcend national barriers, Wouldn’t you” (Waters, 1972) “Fear builds walls”
