    Hello?
    Is there anybody in there?
    just nod if you can hear me.
    Is there anyone home?
    Come on, now,
    I hear you’re feeling down.
    Well i can ease your pain
    Get you on your feet again,
    Relax.
    I’ll need some information first.
    Just the basic facts.
    Can you show me where it hurts?

    There is no pain you are receding
    A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I can’t hear what your saying.
    When I was a child I had a fever
    My hands felt just like two balloons.
    Now I”ve got that feeling once again
    I can’t explain you would not understand
    This is not how I am.
    I have become comfortably numb.

    O.K.
    Just a little pinprick.
    There’ll be no more aaaaaaaaah!
    But you may feel a little sick.
    Can you stand up?
    I do believe it’s working, good.
    That’ll keep you going through the show
    Come on it’s time to go.

    There is no pain you are receding
    A distant ship, smoke on the horizon.
    You are only coming through in waves.
    Your lips move but I can’t hear what you’re saying.
    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb.

    Comfortably Numb,
    Pink Floyd

    So ya
    Thought ya
    Might like to go to the show.
    To feel the warm thrill of confusion
    That space cadet glow.
    Tell me is something eluding you, sunshine?
    Is this not what you expected to see?
    If you wanna find out what’s behind these cold eyes
    You’ll just have to claw your way through this disguise.

    “Lights! Turn on the sound effects! Action!”
    “Drop it, drop it on ’em! Drop it on them!!!!!”
    Momma loves her baby
    And daddy loves you too.
    And the sea may look warm to you babe
    And the sky may look blue
    But ooooh Baby
    Ooooh baby blue
    Oooooh babe.

    If you should go skating
    On the thin ice of modern life
    Dragging behind you the silent reproach
    Of a million tear-stained eyes
    Don’t be surprised when a crack in the ice
    Appears under your feet.
    You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
    With your fear flowing out behind you
    As you claw the thin ice.
    Daddy’s flown across the ocean
    Leaving just a memory
    Snapshot in the family album
    Daddy what else did you leave for me?
    Daddy, what’d’ja leave behind for me?!?
    All in all it was just a brick in the wall.
    All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
    “You! Yes, you! Stand still laddy!”
    When we grew up and went to school
    There were certain teachers who would
    Hurt the children in any way they could
    “OOF!” [someone being hit]
    By pouring their derision
    Upon anything we did
    And exposing every weakness
    However carefully hidden by the kids
    But in the town, it was well known
    When they got home at night, their fat and
    Psychopathic wives would thrash them
    Within inches of their lives.
    We don’t need no education
    We dont need no thought control
    No dark sarcasm in the classroom
    Teachers leave them kids alone
    Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
    All in all it’s just another brick in the wall.
    All in all you’re just another brick in the wall.

    We don’t need no education

    “Wrong, Do it again!”
    “If you don’t eat yer meat, you can’t have any pudding. How can you
    have any pudding if you don’t eat yer meat?”
    “You! Yes, you behind the bikesheds, stand still laddy!”
    Mother do you think they’ll drop the bomb?
    Mother do you think they’ll like this song?
    Mother do you think they’ll try to break my balls?
    Mother should I build the wall?
    Mother should I run for president?
    Mother should I trust the government?
    Mother will they put me in the firing line?
    Mother am I really dying?

    Hush now baby, baby, dont you cry.
    Mother’s gonna make all your nightmares come true.
    Mother’s gonna put all her fears into you.
    Mother’s gonna keep you right here under her wing.
    She wont let you fly, but she might let you sing.
    Mama will keep baby cozy and warm.
    Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
    Of course mama’ll help to build the wall.

    Mother do you think she’s good enough—to me?
    Mother do you think she’s dangerous—to me?
    Mother will she tear your little boy apart?
    Mother will she break my heart?

    Hush now baby, baby dont you cry.
    Mama’s gonna check out all your girlfriends for you.
    Mama wont let anyone dirty get through.
    Mama’s gonna wait up until you get in.
    Mama will always find out where you’ve been.
    Mama’s gonna keep baby healthy and clean.
    Ooooh baby oooh baby oooh baby,
    You’ll always be baby to me.

    Mother, did it need to be so high?

    “Look mummy, there’s an aeroplane up in the sky”
    Did you see the frightened ones?
    Did you hear the falling bombs?
    Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
    promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue
    sky?

    Did you see the frightened ones?
    Did you hear the falling bombs?
    The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.

    Goodbye, blue sky
    Goodbye, blue sky.
    Goodbye.
    Goodbye.
    Goodbye.

    What shall we use
    To fill the empty spaces
    Where we used to talk?
    How shall I fill
    The final places?
    How should I complete the wall
    I am just a new boy,
    Stranger in this town.
    Where are all the good times?
    Who’s gonna show this stranger around?
    Ooooh, I need a dirty woman.
    Ooooh, I need a dirty girl.

    Will some cold woman in this desert land
    Make me feel like a real man?
    Take this rock and roll refugee
    Oooh, baby set me free.

    Ooooh, I need a dirty woman.
    Ooooh, I need a dirty girl.
    [Phone rings..Clink of receiver being lifted]

    Day after day, love turns grey
    Like the skin of a dying man.
    Night after night, we pretend its all right
    But I have grown older and
    You have grown colder and
    Nothing is very much fun any more.
    And I can feel one of my turns coming on.
    I feel cold as a razor blade,
    Tight as a tourniquet,
    Dry as a funeral drum.

    Run to the bedroom,
    In the suitcase on the left
    You’ll find my favorite axe.
    Don’t look so frightened
    This is just a passing phase,
    One of my bad days.
    Would you like to watch T.V.?
    Or get between the sheets?
    Or contemplate the silent freeway?
    Would you like something to eat?
    Would you like to learn to fly?
    Would’ya?
    Would you like to see me try?

    Would you like to call the cops?
    Do you think it’s time I stopped?
    Why are you running away?
    Ooooh, babe
    Don’t leave me now.
    Don’t say it’s the end of the road.
    Remember the flowers I sent.
    I need you, babe
    To put through the shredder
    In front of my friends
    Ooooh Babe.
    Dont leave me now.
    How could you go?
    When you know how I need you
    To beat to a pulp on a Saturday night
    Ooooh Babe.
    How could you treat me this way?
    Running away.
    I need you, Babe.
    Why are you running away?
    Oooooh Babe!

    [Sound of many TV’s coming on, all on different channels]
    “The Bulls are already out there”
    Pink: “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrgh!”
    “This Roman Meal bakery thought you’d like to know.”
    I don’t need no arms around me
    And I dont need no drugs to calm me.
    I have seen the writing on the wall.
    Don’t think I need anything at all.
    No! Don’t think I’ll need anything at all.
    All in all it was all just bricks in the wall.
    All in all you were all just bricks in the wall.
    Goodbye cruel world,
    I’m leaving you today.
    Goodbye,
    Goodbye,
    Goodbye.
