Pigs on the Wing

[catbert836]

If you didn't care
what happened to me
And if I didn't care for you
We would zig-zag our way
through the boredom and pain
occasionaly glancing up through the rain
Wondering which of the buggers to blame
and watching for pigs on the wing

You know that I care what happens to you
and I know that you care for me too
So, I don't feel alone
or the weight of the stone
Now that I've found somewhere safe to bury my bone
And any fool knows, a dog needs a home
A shelter from pigs on the wing.

1. Sheep

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away
Only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air
You better watch out
There may be dogs about
I've looked over Jordan and I have seen
Things are not what they seem.

What do you get for pretending the danger's not real
Meek and obedient you follow the leader
Down well trodden corridors into the valley of steel
What a surprise!
A look of terminal shock in your eyes
Now things are really what they seem
No, this is no bad dream.

The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want
He makes me down to lie
Through pastures green he leadeth me the silent waters by
With bright knives he releaseth my soul
He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places
He converteth me to lamb cutlets
For lo,m he hath great power and great hunger
When cometh the day we lowly ones
Through quiet reflection and great dedication
Master the art of karate
Lo, we shall rise up
And then we'll make the bugger's eyes water.

Bleeding and bubbling I fell on his neck with a scream
Wave upon wave of demented avengers
March cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream.

Have you heard the news?
The dogs are dead!
You better stay home
And do as you're told
Get out of the road if you want to grow old.

[Gold Metal Flake]

I remember every Gilmour lick from that album by heart.

3. I was just listening to that during my walk through the snow today.

The whole album, that is.
