Late Home Tonight Part I - Roger Waters[00:00:01]
Standing at the window[00:00:27]
A farmer's wife in Oxford shire[00:00:31]
Glances at the clock; it's nearly time for tea[00:00:36]
She doesn't see[00:00:39]
The phantom in the hedgerow dip its wings[00:00:40]
Doesn't hear the engine sing[00:00:44]
But in the cockpit's techno glow[00:00:48]
Behind the Ray Ban© shine[00:00:51]
The kid from Cleveland[00:00:56]
In the comfort of routine[00:00:58]
Scans his dials and smiles[00:01:00]
Secure in the beauty of military life[00:01:05]
There is no right no wrong[00:01:14]
Only tin cans and cordite and white cliffs[00:01:17]
And blue skies and flight flight flight[00:01:21]
The beauty of military life[00:01:32]
No questions only orders and flight only flight[00:01:35]
What a beautiful sight in his wild blue dream[00:01:43]
The eternal child leafs through his war magazines[00:01:51]
And his kind Uncle Sam feeds ten trillion in change[00:01:55]
Into the total entertainment combat video game[00:01:59]
And up here in the stands[00:02:05]
The fans are going wild[00:02:06]
As the cheerleaders flip[00:02:09]
When you wiggle your hip[00:02:10]
And we all like the bit when you take[00:02:13]
The jeans from the refrigerator and[00:02:15]
Then the bad guy gets hit[00:02:17]
And were you struck by the satisfying way[00:02:20]
The swimsuit sticks to her skin[00:02:23]
Like BB gun days[00:02:25]
When knives pierce autumn leaves[00:02:28]
But that's okay see the children bleed[00:02:30]
It'll look great on the TV[00:02:33]
And in Tripoli another ordinary wife[00:02:50]
Stares at the dripping tap her old man hadn't[00:02:59]
Time to fix[00:03:03]
Too busy mixing politics and rhythm[00:03:05]
In the street below[00:03:08]
