Wiki:

"We'll Meet Again" is a 1939 British song made famous by singer Vera Lynn with music and lyrics composed and written by Ross Parker and Hughie Charles. The song is one of the most famous songs of the Second World War era, and resonated with soldiers going off to fight and their families and sweethearts. The assertion that "we'll meet again" is optimistic, as many soldiers did not survive to see their loved ones again. The song gave its name to the 1943 musical film We'll Meet Again in which Dame Vera Lynn played the lead role (see 1943 in music). Lynn's recording is featured in the final scene of Stanley Kubrick's 1964 film Dr. Strangelove, and was also used in the closing scenes of the 1986 BBC television serial The Singing Detective. British director John Schlesinger used the song in his 1979 World War II film, Yanks, which is about British citizens and American soldiers during the military buildup in the UK as the Allies prepared for the D-Day Invasion. During the Cold War, Lynn's recording was included in the package of music and programmes held in 20 underground radio stations of the BBC's Wartime Broadcasting Service (WTBS), designed to provide public information and morale-boosting broadcasts for 100 days after a nuclear attack. Lynn sang the song in London on the 60th Anniversary of VE Day in 2005. Traditionally, this song is played on May 5 as a closure to the Liberation Day Concert in Amsterdam, to mark the end of World War II in the Netherlands, as the monarch leaves the concert on a canal boat. Other Performances Benny Goodman recorded the song with Peggy Lee in 1942. The Ink Spots recorded the song in 1943 The Byrds recorded the song as the closing track of their debut album Mr. Tambourine Man in 1965, inspired by the song's use in the film Dr. Strangelove. In 1966 the Turtles performed it on the Lloyd Thaxton show, a Los Angeles teen dance show. In 1972, P. J. Proby recorded a power-ballad rendition of the song. It was released by the EMI Group as Proby's last single of his recording contract. Jim Capaldi recorded a brief selection of the song in 1974, which appears as a hidden track on his album Whale Meat Again. Rod Stewart and the Faces would sing an a cappella version of the song as the closer to most of their concerts between 1971 and 1974. Barry Manilow recorded this song on his Barry Live in Britain album. Joe Henry recorded the song on his 1999 album Fuse. Johnny Cash recorded this song on his 2002 album American IV: The Man Comes Around (it was the closing track of the album, which was the final album released during his lifetime). This version is used in the beginning of the 2010 remake of The Crazies. After Cash's death in the fall of 2003, family and friends performed "We'll Meet Again" at the conclusion of a TV special celebrating the singer's life. Mezzo-soprano Katherine Jenkins reprised the song at her appearance alongside Lynn in London on the 60th Anniversary of VE Day in 2005, and has retained it as an occasional item in her repertoire. The song was played on the closing night of the Willow disco in York. American celtic rock band Dropkick Murphys recorded the song on their 2017 album 11 Short Stories of Pain & Glory. In film and television In the 1955 British film The Ship That Died of Shame, sung by then-famous singer, Yana, in a scene set in the fictional "Coastal Forces Club". In the 1964 movie Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, the song closes out the final scenes while showing a montage of atomic explosions. Used in movie The Hit by Stephen Frears. The Kinks reference the song and performer in "Mr. Churchill Says" which appeared on their 1969 album Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) in context to The Blitz. In The Muppets Go to the Movies, The Muppets, Dudley Moore and Lily Tomlin sing the song at the end. The song plays as part of the music loop of The Twilight Zone Tower of Terror attractions at numerous Disney parks. The song appears on the first episode of the documentary The Beatles Anthology, during the footage of The Beatles members when they were children. In The Simpsons episode "Sideshow Bob's Last Gleaming", Sideshow Bob whistles the song as he sets up a Cold War-era nuclear bomb in a US airbase. The song is also used at the end of the episode "At Long Last Leave". The final scene of the last episode of the 1997 animated superhero comedy Freakazoid features the cast singing this song at the Hollywood Bowl. A part of the song plays at the end of the Futurama episode "A Big Piece of Garbage", when the credits are being shown. In the movie Hellboy, during Professor Broom's confrontation with Rasputin, a recording of the song plays in the background (according to the closed-captioning). Jim Keats sings the song in the series finale of Ashes to Ashes. Early in the movie The Ides of March, Bob Mervak is briefly shown singing the song at Cliff Bell’s, a Detroit jazz club. Franka Potente sings this song in The Sinking of the Laconia. Episode 4 of the fifth season of True Blood is entitled "We'll Meet Again". A cover of the song plays during the end credits. In the week of "The Rovers Return Inn" fire on Coronation Street in 2013, Rita Sullivan, Dennis Tanner and Emily Bishop sing this song before the fire breaks out next episode. In the underground series Salad Fingers, created by animator David Firth, the song is referenced at the end of the seventh episode entitled, "Shore Leave." The movie Second World War uses the song We'll Meet Again sung by actress Evelyn Rei. Footballer Chris Todd plays the role of Thomas and singer Keedie Green set to star in the film Episode 9 of the sixth season of Castle, titled "Disciple", He plays the song at the end of the episode as a way of saying that 3XK (Jerry Tyson) has returned. The theme returns in episode 14 of season 7, "Resurrection", prefiguring the actions of the return of 3XK and Dr. Kelly Nieman My Morning Jacket plays "We'll Meet Again" from their speakers at the end of shows as their fans depart. In the television show Midsomer Murders, actress June Whitfield sings the song as her character Peggy Alder. In the Round the Twist episode Radio Da Da, the song is played every time Pete and Linda get transported to World War II (where the song was released at the time) through an old radio given by Nell. On the final episode of The Colbert Report, the song was sung by Stephen Colbert in a more upbeat tempo with members of his family and an assembled crowd of many of his most prominent guests. The song was sung by Alfie Boe and Katherine Jenkins during the final performance at VE Day 70: A Party to Remember at Horse Guards Parade in London in 2015. A segment of the song is sung by Bill Cipher in the Gravity Falls series finale, "Weirdmageddon 3: Take Back the Falls".

Near the end of the movie. References in other works Pink Floyd makes reference to this song and the performer in "Vera", a song from their album The Wall: "Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?/Remember how she said that we would meet again some sunny day?". A short clip of "We'll Meet Again" can also be heard at the beginning of the first track on the Pink Floyd album Is There Anybody Out There? The Wall Live 1980–81. On her last radio show, NPR host Liane Hansen quoted the song in her farewell address to listeners. Snowing references it in their song "I think We're in Minsk". "Play Vera Lynn at my funeral, though I don't think we will meet again. I'm not morbid. I'm just forgetful and I think it'd be a funny way to end." The fifty-fifth issue of the Mega Man comic series from Archie Comics, which was the last issue before the series went on a hiatus of indeterminate length, featured characters from various branches of the Mega Man franchise joining together in singing "We'll Meet Again." Lyrics We'll meet again, Don't know where, don't know when, But I know we'll meet again, some sunny day. Keep smiling through, Just like you always do, Till the blue skies drive the dark clouds, far away. So will you please say hello, To the folks that I know, Tell them I won't be long, They'll be happy to know that as you saw me go I was singing this song. We'll meet again, Don't know where, don't know when, But I know we'll meet again, some sunny day.

PAN ACROSS A HALLWAY. Vera Lynn recording of "The Little Boy that Santa Claus Forgot" eventually starts playing. "Christmas comes but ones a year for every girl and boy the laughter and the joy they find in each new toy. I tell you of a little boy who lives across the way this little fella's Christmas is just another day. [When the Tigers Broke Free Part 1] It was just before dawn one miserable morning in black '44 when the forward commander was told to sit tight when he asked that his men be withdrawn. And the generals gave thanks as the other ranks held back the enemy tanks for a while and the Anzio bridgehead was held for the prize of a few hundred ordinary lives. "He's the little boy that Santa Claus forgot and goodness knows he didn't want a lot He sent a note to Santa for some soldiers and a drum It broke his little heart when he found that Santa hadn't come. In the street he envies al those lucky boys..." ["In the Flesh?"] 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. ["The Thin Ice"] Momma loves her baby And daddy loves you too. And the sea may look warm to you babe and the sky may look blue. 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. ["Another Brick in the Wall Part 1"] Daddy's flown across the ocean Leaving just a memory A snapshot in the family album Daddy what else did you leave for me? Daddy, what d'ya 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. "Easy. Be careful. What ?" "Will You put me on that ?" "Well, Where's your ma then ?" "She's gone to the shops" "Yes. All right. How's that then ? Enjoying it ? Ooh wabba..lovely lovely. "What you again ? Now Off you go ! Go on. What have I told you about this ? What have I told you; you're not mine. Now, sling your hook. Go on sling your hook" [When the Tigers Broke Free (Part 2)] And kind old king George send Mother a note when he heard that father was gone. It was, I recall, in the form of a scroll with gold leaf and all. And I found it one day in a drawer of old photographs, hidden away. And my eyes still grow damp to remember His Majesty signed with his own rubber stamp.... It was dark all around there was frost in the ground when the tigers broke free and no-one survived from The Royal Fusiliers Company C. They where all left behind most of them dead the rest of them dying. And that's how the High Command took my Daddy from me! ["Goodbye Blue 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 the 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. ["The Happiest Days of our Lives"] "Wait for me Pinky, you rotten bleeder." "They're live bullets, aren't they ?" "I don't know" "Come on Tubs. Its great down in the tunnel." "Don't you think it'd be dangerous Pinky ?" "No don't be daft." " "You all right Tubbs ?" "Yeah. Hurt me knee a bit" "Come on!" "Nah, it's too dangerous. We'll wait for the train." "Gimme the torch" "Pinky here comes the train. Get of the line you bloody idiot, here it comes" "Pinky get of the line, here it comes! Get of the line!" "You! You! Yes, you! Stand still laddie!" When we grew up and went to school There were certain teachers who would Hurt the children in any way they could By pouring their derision Upon anything we did And exposing every weakness However carefully hidden by the kids The teacher gets a black book from Pink's possessions. TEACHER "What have we here laddie ? Mysterious scibblings ? A secret code ? No ! Poems no less. Poems everybody ! [classmates laugh] TEACHER The lad here reckons himself a poet. [reading from Pink's little black book] "Money gets back. I'm all right Jack. Keep your hands of my stack. New car, caviar, four star day dream, think I'll buy me a football team." Absolute rubbish laddie. Get on with your work! Repeat after me : An acre is the area of a rectangle whose length is one furlong and whose width is one chain. 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. ["Another Brick in the Wall part 2"] We don't need no education We don't 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. TEACHER "Wrong! Do it again!" All in all you're just another brick in the wall. We don't need no education TEACHER "If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding!" We don't need no thought control TEACHER "How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat !?!" No dark sarcasm in the classroom TEACHER "You! Yes you laddie! Poems! Poems everybody! The lad here makes himself a poet" 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. TEACHER "Wrooooong !!!!" We don't need no education. No dark sarcasm in the classroom. TEACHER "Again! An acre is the area of a rectangle whose length is on furlong and whose width is one chain" ["Mother"] 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? Oooh aah, Mother should I build the wall? "K B Y M S H A M" Mother should I run for president? "As my college Donald supposes...." Mother should I trust the government? Mother will they put me in the firing line? ooh aah, mother am I really dying ? Hush now baby, baby, don't 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's gonna keep baby cosy and warm. Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby, Of course mamma's gonna help build the wall. "Hello. Hello. Is there anybody in there ? D'you remember me ? I'm the one from the registry office" Mother do you think she's good enough -- for me? Mother do you think she's dangerous -- to me? Mother will she tear your little boy apart? Oooh ma, Mother will she break my heart? Hush now baby, baby don't you cry. Mama's gonna check out all your girl friends for you. Mama won't 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 ooh baby, You'll always be baby to me. Mother, did it need to be so high? "Hello..?" "Yes, a collect call for Mrs. Floyd from Mr. Floyd. Will you accept the charges from United States? I wonder why he hung up? Is there supposed to be someone else there besides your wife there to answer?" "Hello?" "This is United States calling, are we reaching... "See he keeps hanging up, and there's a man answering." ["What Shall We Do Now"] What shall we use to fill the empty spaces where waves of hunger roar? Shall we set out across this sea of faces in search of more and more applause ? Shall we buy a new guitar ? Shall we drive a more powerful car ? Shall we work straight through the night ? Shall we get into fights ? Leave the lights on ? Drop bombs ? Do tours of the East ? Contract diseases ? Bury bones ? Break up homes ? Send flowers by phone ? Take to drink ? Go to shrinks ? Give up meat ? Rarely sleep ? Keep people as pets ? Train dogs ? Race rats ? Fill the attic with cash ? Bury treasure ? Store up leisure ? But never relax at all with our backs to the wall ? ["Young Lust"] 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 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. ["One of My Turns"] GROUPIE "Oh my God, what a fabulous room! "Are all these your guitars?" "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to startle you!" "This place is bigger than our whole apartment!" "Uh, could I get a drink of water?" "Let me know when you are entering a room" Yes sir!" "Ya want some? Huh?" "Yes" "Oh wow! Look at this tub!" You wanna take a bath?" "I'll have to find out from Mrs. Bancroft what time she wants to meet us, for here main" "What're you watching?" "If you'll just let me know as soon as you can Mrs. Bancroft. Mrs. Bancroft" "Hello?" "I don't understand" "Are you feeling OK?" "When are we going to get something to fly ?" "They're sending the first batch of Lancs tomorrow" "Now these are the first dropping tests at the Chesil beach near Weymouth." "Here comes the Wellington. Mutt Summers is the pilot, and I'm working the release gear." "God;" "In a moment you'll see the bombs." "That makes the ten they promised us to get started with Have them flown and tested tomorrow. We can begin this afternoon dividing the crews into flights. The first job will be to fly over every big lake in England and Wales and photograph them" "Lakes!?" "You like the tube, huh ?" "Lakes." "Crews are already in the briefing room." "Can I get a drink of water?" "Hello." "Hello Mutt. This is wing commander Guy Gibson" "Can I get you a drink of water ?" "I'm glad you've come. My name is Barnes Wallis." "I'll leave you to it. See you later" "Right." "Thanks a lot Mutt." "Would you like to put these things down ? Here give me that." "Thank you" "I don't smoke, but there's sometimes a cigarette in here. Yes there we are." "Oh wow, look at this tub. Do you wanna take bath?" Well, here we are all together for the first time. You're wondering what it's all about, and I can't tell you, cause I don't know myself. But I do know it's a big thing and if it comes off.. "What are watching?" "...it'll have results that may do quite a bit to shorten this war. Discipline is going to be essential," "Hello?" "and so is security." "Hello?" "It's unusual for a crowd like you to be formed into a new squadron. So you are going to be talked about. Rumors are flying already. But you've got to keep your mouths shut!" "Are you feeling okay?..." Day after day, love turns grey Like the skin of the 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? Nigger ! Come on old boy ! Come on Nigger!" Would you like to call the cops? Do you think it's time I stopped? Why are you running away? "Next time fuckers!!!" ["Don't Leave Me Now"] Ooooh Babe. Don't 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. Don't leave me now. "Do you know how much water it takes the Germans to make a ton of steel ?" "Haven't the least." "One hundred tons" How could you treat me this way? Running away. ooh Babe. Why are you running away? Oooooh Babe! Oooooh Babe Oooooh. Oooooh ["Another Brick in the Wall Part 3"] I don't need no arms around me And I don't 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"] Goodbye cruel world, I'm leaving you today. Goodbye, Goodbye, Goodbye. Goodbye, all you people, There's nothing you can say To make me change my mind. Goodbye ["Is There Anybody Out There?"] Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? ["Nobody Home"] "Oh hello Gibson. I was wondering if you where here." "I was watching from down there." "Why didn't you come and watch with me here?" "I knew how you must be feeling. I guessed you'd rather be alone." "It's the devil; isn't it ?" "Yes, 'its rather." "It's most disappointing. I shall have to go all out on some modifications. I wonder if I could ask you to do something ?" "Of course. Anything I can." Well, you see. It isn't only the structure of the bomb. It's the trouble. It's in the bopping of it We must lessen the force of the impact. I asked you originally if you could fly in over water, and drop the bomb at 150 feet." I've got a little black book with my poems in. Got a bag with a toothbrush and a comb in. When I'm a good dog, they sometimes throw me a bone in. I got elastic bands keeping my shoes on. Got those swollen hand blues. I've got thirteen channels of shit on the T.V. to choose from. I've got electric light. And I've got second sight. "It requires..." I've got amazing powers of observation. And that is how I know When I try to get through On the telephone to you "One of the thrilling things for me has been..." There'll be nobody home. "Turkish ballet" I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm. "Down. Down. Down. Steady." And the inevitable pinhole burns All down the front of my favorite satin shirt. "Hello Nigger old boy. What are you doing ?" I've got nicotine stains on my fingers. I've got a silver spoon on a chain. I've got a grand piano to prop up my mortal remains. "Hello Nigger. Not in here old boy. Go on." I've got wild staring eyes. And I've got a strong urge to fly. But I got nowhere to fly to. Ooooh, Babe when I pick up the phone There's still nobody home. I've got a pair of Go hills boots and I got fading roots. ["Vera"] "Do You want me Crosby ?" "I-I'm sorry sir. It's Nigger. He's been run over. He's dead. The car didn't even stop." "Where did it happen?" "Outside the main gate. He ran across the road sir, and the car hit him." "Where is he ?" "In the guardroom Sir." Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn? Remember how she said that We would meet again Some sunny day? Vera! Vera! What has become of you? Does anybody else here Feel the way I do? ["Bring the Boys Back Home"] Bring the boys back home. Bring the boys back home. Don't leave the children on their own, no, no. Bring the boys back home. Bring the boys back home. Don't leave the children on their own, no, no. Bring the boys back home. "You can bet your boot it's gonna be something big." "They say it's a special squadron to kidnap Hitler." "Who's that big dark fellow by the table ?" "Wrong! Do it again!" "Time to go! [knock, knock, knock, knock] "Oh that's Young. Gibson's Second in command" "Are you feeling okay?" "Dinghy Young they call him, cause he always comes down in the sea and paddles home in his rubber boat." aah, is there anybody out there ? "Stay there Nigger. Stay there boy." "Fuck me !! He's gone completely round the bleedin' twist! You vicious bastard, you never did like me, did ya ?" ["Comfortably Numb"] Hello? Is there anybody in there? Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home? Come on, now, I hear you're feeling down. Well I can ease your pain Get you on your feet again. "...the boy's an asthmatic." "Asthmatic !?" Relax. I'll need some information first. "...he's an artist..." 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 you're 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 will not understand This is not how I am. I have become comfortably numb. I have become comfortably numb. O.K. Just a little pin prick. There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah! But you may feel a little sick. Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good. "...He's coming around. There, you see !" That'll keep you going through the show Come on its time to go. "How do you feel ?" 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. ["In The Flesh"] So ya Thought ya Might like to go to the show. To feel the warm thrill of confusion, that space cadet glow - huh! I've got some bad news for you sunshine, Pink isn't well. He's, err, back at the hotel And they sent us along as a surrogate band Now, tonight we're gonna find out where you fans really stand. Are there any queers in the audience tonight? Get them up against the wall!------Get that one There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right, have him up against the wall!------Get that one That one looks Jewish! And that one's a coon! Who let all of this riff-raff into the room? There's one smoking a joint, And that one's got spots! If I had my way, I'd have all of you shot! Hammer. Hammer. Hammer. Hammer..... ["Run Like Hell"] Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run. You better make your face up with your favorite disguise. With your button down lips and your roller blind eyes. With your empty smile and your hungry heart. Feel the bile rising from your guilty past. With your nerves in tatters as the conch shell shatters And the hammers batter down your door. You'd better run. Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run. You better run all day and run all night. Keep your dirty feelings deep inside. And if you're taking your girl friend out tonight You'd better park the car well out of sight. Cause if they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks, They're gonna send you back to mother in a cardboard box. You better run. ["Waiting for the Worms"] "Eins, zwei, drei, alle!" Aah , you cannot reach me now Ooooh, no matter how you try Goodbye, cruel world, it's over Walk on by. We're {waiting to succeed} and going to convene outside Brixton Town Hall where we're going to be... Waiting to cut out the deadwood. Waiting to weed out the weaklings. Waiting to smash in their windows And kick in their doors. Waiting for the final solution To strengthen the strain. Waiting to follow the worms. Would you like to see Britannia Rule again, my friend? All you need to do is follow the worms. The Worms will convene outside Brixton Bus Station. We'll be moving along at about 12 o'clock down Stockwell Road {..........} {Abbot's Road } {.....} twelve minutes to three we'll be moving along Lambeth Road towards Vauxhall Bridge. Now when we get to the other side of Vauxhall Bridge we're in Westminster {Borough } area. It's quite possible we may encounter some {.....} by the way we go. {... ..}." Hammer. Hammer. Hammer. Hammer. ["Stop"] Stoooooop ! "Do you remember me ? The way it used to be ? Do you think we should have been closer ? Put out my hand, just to touch your soft hair. To make sure in the darkness, that you where still there. And I have to admit, I was just a little afraid. of the ones living under the dirty old knife. And the ones who where pointed with guns to their backs..." Stop. Stop. I wanna go home Take off this uniform And leave the show. But I'm waiting in this cell Because I have to know. Have I been guilty all this time? ["The Trial"] Good morning, Worm your honor. The crown will plainly show The prisoner who now stands before you Was caught red-handed showing feelings Showing feelings of an almost human nature; This will not do. Call the schoolmaster! I always said he'd come to no good In the end your honor. If they'd let me have my way I could Have flayed him into shape. But my hands were tied, The bleeding hearts and artists Let him get away with murder. Let me hammer him today? Crazy, Toys in the attic I am crazy, Truly gone fishing. They must have taken my marbles away. Crazy, toys in the attic he is crazy. You little shit you're in it now, I hope they throw away the key. You should have talked to me more often Than you did, but no! You had to go Your own way, have you broken any Homes up lately? Just five minutes, Worm your honor, Him and Me, alone. Baaaaaaaaaabe! Come to mother baby, let me hold you In my arms. M'lud I never wanted him to Get in any trouble. Why'd he ever have to leave me? Worm, your honor, let me take him home. Crazy, Over the rainbow, I am crazy, Bars in the window. There must have been a door there in the wall When I came in. Crazy, over the rainbow, he is crazy. The evidence before the court is Incontrovertible, there's no need for The jury to retire. In all my years of judging I have never heard before Of someone more deserving Of the full penalties of law. The way you made them suffer Your exquisite wife and mother, Fills me with the urge to defecate! Since, my friend, you have revealed your deepest fear, I sentence you to be exposed before your peers. Tear down the wall! Tear down the wall. Tear down the wall. Tear down the wall. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah ["Outside the Wall"] All alone, or in two's, The ones who really love you Walk up and down outside the wall. Some hand in hand And some gathered together in bands. The bleeding hearts and artists Make their stand. And when they've given you their all Some stagger and fall, after all it's not easy Banging your heart against some mad bugger's wall.
