About Song: Оригинальная мелодия «Us and them» была написана Райтом еще во время работы «Пинк Флойд» над музыкой для кинофильма «Забриски Поинт», однако была отвергнута режиссером ленты Микеланджело Антониони как «слишком грустная». Основной темой песни является взаимоотношение людей друг с другом. Их конфликты и противостояния. Уотерс делает вывод, что все мы, при прочих равных, всего лишь обычные люди.

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 want of the price of tea and a slice The old man died
