The song The Fletcher Memorial Home by Pink Floyd off of their CD The Final Cut. Circa 1983, remastered 2004. I do not own any of this content.

Volume increased 20%.

Lyrics:
Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
And build them a home, a little place of their own.
The Fletcher Memorial
Home for Incurable Tyrants and Kings.

And they can appear to themselves every day
On closed circuit T.V.
To make sure they're still real.
It's the only connection they feel.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome, Reagan and Haig,
Mr. Begin and friend, Mrs. Thatcher, and Paisly,
"Hello Maggie!"
Mr. Brezhnev and party.
"Scusi dov'è il bar?"
The ghost of McCarthy,
The memories of Nixon.
"Who's the bald chap?"
"Good-bye!"
And now, adding colour, a group of anonymous latin-
American meat packing glitterati.

Did they expect us to treat them with any respect?
They can polish their medals and sharpen their
Smiles, and amuse themselves playing games for awhile.
Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead.

Safe in the permanent gaze of a cold glass eye
With their favorite toys
They'll be good girls and boys
In the Fletcher Memorial Home for colonial
Wasters of life and limb.

Is everyone in?
Are you having a nice time?
Now the final solution can be applied.

  • The best music to hang yourself.

  • Scusi dov'è il bar?

  • Ahhhh, Gilmour the King of the meaningful guitar solo!!! I will recognize his style of playing even under water!!!

  • @crazynini1000 The first guitar break and solo, is, in my opinion, one of the best in the pink floyd album catalogue.. and certainly very overlooked.

  • @TheTrickLink W Bush ruin the USA.He spend more money on war than all the earlyer presidents did thogether

  • Always loved the bad ass solo in the middle.

  • <3

  • Eric Fletcher Waters - Rogers Dad, was killed in battle during the second world war. A lot of Rogers music can be understood better when you know he lost his dad to war and never knew him!

    Strange how the death of one man has brough so much meaningful music to so many...

  • I still love Roger... even if his ego DOES fill up 90% of the ever-expanding universe

  • I love the eagles in the final lol
