Us and Them

Some things remain prescient.  Enjoy.

Us and Them

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
General 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, and round
Haven’t you heard it’s a battle of words
and most of them are lies
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There’s room for you inside

I mean, they’re not gonna kill ya, so like, you give’m a quick short, sharp, shock, they won’t do it again. Dig it. I mean he got off lightly, ‘cos I would’ve given’m a thrashing— I only hit him once. It was only a difference of opinion, but really…I mean good manners don’t cost nothing do they, aye.

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
And nothing’s on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died

Brain Damage

The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path

The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon

The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You rearrange me ‘ till I’m sane
You lock the door and throw away the key
There’s someone in my head but it’s not me

And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you’re in starts playing different tunes
I’ll see you on the dark side of the moon

Eclipse

All that you touch,
And all that you see
All that you taste,
All you feel
And all that you love,
And all that you hate
All you distrust,
All you save
And all that you give,
And all that you deal
And all that you buy, beg, borrow, or steal
And all you create,
And all you destroy
And all that you do,
And all that you say
And all that you eat,
And everyone you meet
And all that you slight,
And everyone you fight
And all that is now,
And all that is gone
And all that’s to come,
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon

There is no dark side of the moon really.
Matter of fact, it’s all dark.
