a) Pigs on the Wing - Part I

If you Didn't care what happened to me

And I didn't care

For you

We would zig zag our way through the boredom and pain

Occasionally glancing up through the rain

Wondering which of the buggers to blame

And watching for pigs on the wing

b) Fearless

You say the hill's too steep to climb

Climb it

You say you'd like to see me try

climbing

You pick the place and I'll choose the time

And I'll climb that hill in my own way

Just wait a while for the right day

And as I rise above the tree lines and the clouds

I look down

Hearing the sound of the things you've said today

Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd

Smiling

Merciless the magistrate turned 'round

Frowning

And who's the fool who wears the crown

And go down

In your own way

And every day is the right day

And as you rise above the fear lines in his brow

You look down

Hearing the sound of the faces

In the crowd

c) Mother (The Post War Dream / Thin Ice)

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb

Tell Me true, Tell me why

Mother do you think they'll like this song

Was Jesus Crucified?

Maggie, What have we done?

Mother do you think they'll try to break my balls

Ooooooh aaaah

Mother should I build a wall

Mother do you think she's good enough?

Momma loves her baby and Daddy Loves you too

Mother do you think she's Dangerous?

And the sea may look warm to you babe

And the sky may look blue

d) Bike

I've got a bike you can ride it if you like

It's got a bar, bell a basket

Reflectors and a spider seat

Cards on the spoke wheels

Customized license plates

a bell that rings and

Lots of

Lots of

Lots of

Lots of things to make it look good

I'd give it to you if I could

e) Brain Damage

The lunatic is in my head

The lunatic is in my head

Stoned out laughter

Remembering days and daisy chains and laughs got to keep the loonies on the path

Main Melody

First Harmony

Additional Harmony

High Harmony

f) (Tienneman's Square / Goodbye Blue Sky)

And I grieve for my sister

Did Did Did Did You see the frightened ones

Did Did Did Did You hear the falling bombs

g) Point Me at the Sky

Hey Eugene, this is Henry McClean

And I've finished my beautiful flying machine

And I'm ringing to say that I'm leaving today

And maybe you'd like to come with me and

Hide with me Baby

h) Your Possible Pasts

Do you remember me?

How we used to be

Do you think we should be closer?

i) Shining on

Guitar solo by Arjen Lucassen

j) One in the Crowd

With all their words and voices shouting

You leave it behind

'Cus you're aware

And Now surround me

Leading the Light

Dark stands before me

With Just one clue presenting

The touch

Of her hand

Off in a Dare

Well Hidden within color

Perchance I should tell her

A path Bold

And Cluttered

I'll Find a way

k) Several Species of Small Furry Animals Gathered

Together in a Cave and

Grooving with a Pict

[Distant banter]

l) Baby Lemonade

Please, Please Baby Lemonade

m) Welcome to the Machine

Welcome my son, welcome to the machine

What did you dream,

How I wish, How I wish you were here

It's alright we told you what to dream

So welcome........

To the machine

n) Summer of '68

[Instrumental]

o) Sheep

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away

Only dimmly aware of a certain unease in the air

Raving and Drooling we fell on his neck with a scream

Wave upon wave of demented avengers march

Cheerfully out of obscurity into the dream

p) Julia Dream

Julia dream, Dreamboat Queen

Queen of all my dreams

Sunlight bright upon my pillow

Lighter than an eiderdown

Will she let the weeping willow

Wind his branches 'round

Julia Dream, Dreamboat queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia Dream, Dreamboat queen

Queen of all my dreams

Every night I Turn the light out

Waiting for the velvet bride

Will the following footsteps catch me

Am I really dying?

Julia Dream, Dreamboat queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia Dream, Dreamboat queen

Queen of all my dreams

Julia Dream, Dreamboat queen

Queen of all my dreams

Sssssssyd

q) Comfortably Numb

[Guitar solo - Gary Wehrkamp]

r) Cymbaline

The path you tread is narrow

And the drop is sheer and very high

The ravens all are watching from a vantage point nearby

Apprehension creeping like a choo-train up your spine

Will the tight reach the end

Doctor Strange is always changing size

Will the final couplet rhyme?

And it's high Time, Cymbaline

Yeah it's, High time, Cymbaline

Please Wake me

s) Corporal Clegg

Mrs. Klegg

You must be proud of him

Scat

Mrs. Klegg

Another drop of Gjalt, I mean Gin

t) Mother reprise

Ooooh babe

Ooooh babe

Ooooh babe

Of course mommas gonna help build the wall

Wot's uh... the deal

So let me in, from the cold

Turn my lead into Gold

'Cus there's a chill wind blowin' in my soul

And I think I'm growing old

u) The Fletcher Memorial Home

[Paranoid Eyes / The Final Cut]

The Fletcher Memorial, Home for Incurable Tyrants

And Kings

BA You can hide, hide, hide

Is Everyone in

Are you having a nice time?

On the Turning Away

No more turning away

From the weak and the weary

No more turning away from the

Coldness inside

Just a world that we

All must share

Not enough just to stand and stare

Is it only a dream that there'll be no more turning away

v) Pigs on the Wing - Part II

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

What's it all about?

From pigs on the wing

Mother did it need to be so high?
