Another Brick In The Wall

This Pink Floyd number completely sums up the 1980's education system complete with smacking and discipline to boot. Also the rebellion is clear in that the system was close to changing forever with the criminalization later of physical and some other forms of discipline. As always Pink Floyd do not fail to deliver on unique and innovative tracks as well as accompanying imagery. It is refreshing to see the availability of such diverse videos on Last FM even though made available through You Tube!

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 any way they could By pouring their derision Upon anything we did And exposing every weakness However carefully hidden by the kids But out in the middle of nowhere When they got home at night, their fat and Psycopathic 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 We dont need no thought control No dark sarcasm in the classroom Teachers leave them kids alone Hey! Teachers! Leave us kids alone! All in all it's just another brick in the wall. All in all you're just another brick in the wall. [8:20] "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!" {9:00} [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. [10:50] 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
