Us And Them

Music: Richard Wright, Roger waters
Text: Roger Waters
Vocal: David Gilmour, Richard Wright

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.

Lyric:
Us, and them
And after all we're only ordinary men
Me, and you
God only knows it's not what we would choose to do

"Forward" he cried, from the rear
And the front rank died
The generals 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
And 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"

(They're maybe gonna kill ya. So like, if you give 'em a quick short,
sharp, shock, they don't do it again. Dig it?
I mean he get off light, come to think. …of rationalizing it, once.
It's only a difference, but why go and ruin it?
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 want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died
