Letras:


Disco 1.


In The Flesh?
(Waters)

"....we came in?"

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.

"Lights! Turn on the sound effects! Action!"
"Drop it, drop it on 'em! Drop it on them!!!!!"


The Thin Ice.
(Waters)

Momma loves her baby
And daddy loves you too.
And the sea may look warm to you babe
And the sky may look blue
But 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 I).
(Waters)

Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
The 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!"


The Happiest Days Of Our Lives.
(Waters)

When we grew up and went to school 
There were certain teachers who would
Hurt the children in any way they could
"Oof!" [someone being hit] 
By pouring their derision 
Upon anything we did
And exposing every weakness 
However carefully hidden by the kids

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 II).
(Waters)

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.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

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.
All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

"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!"


Mother.
(Waters)

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?
Mother should I build the wall?
Mother should I run for president?
Mother should I trust the government?
Mother will they put me in the firing line?
Mother am I really dying?

Hush now baby, baby, don't you cry.
Mama's gonna make all your nightmares come true.
Mama's gonna put all her fears into you.
Mama's gonna keep you right here under her wing.
She won't let you fly, but she might let you sing.
Mama's gonna keep baby cozy and warm.
Ooooh baby ooooh baby oooooh baby,
Of course mama's gonna help to build the wall.

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?
Mother will she break my heart?

Hush now baby, baby don't you cry.
Mama's gonna check out all your girlfriends 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 oooh baby,
You'll always be baby to me.

Mother, did it need to be so high?


Goodbye Blue Sky.
(Waters)

"Look mummy, there's an aeroplane up in the 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 a 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 11:15 from Newcastle is now approaching" 
"The 11:18 arrival...."


Empty Spaces.
(Waters)

Mensaje oculto en reversa:
"Congratulations, You have just discovered the secret message.
Please send your answer to 'Old Pink',
Care of the funny farm, Chalfont..." - Roger Waters

"Roger, Caroline's on the phone..." - otra voz.

What shall we use 
To fill the empty spaces 
Where we used to talk?
How shall I fill 
The final places?
How can I complete the wall?


Young Lust.
(Waters/Gilmour)

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.

Ooooh, I need a dirty woman.
Ooooh, I need a dirty girl.

"Hello..?"
"Yes, a collect call for Mrs. Floyd from Mr. Floyd.
Will you accept the charges from United States?"

"Oh, He hung up! That's your residence, right? 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 it's a man answering."


One Of My Turns.
(Waters)

Groupie: "Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?
Film al fondo: "I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to startle you!
Groupie: "This place is bigger than our apartment!
Film al fondo: "Let me know when you're entering a room"
"Yes sir!"
Groupie: "erm, Can I get a drink of water?
Film al fondo: "I was wondering about ..."
Groupie: "You want some, huh?"
Film al fondo: "Yes"
Groupie: "Oh wow, look at this tub? Do you wanna take baaaath?"
Film al fondo: "I'll have to find out from Mrs. Bancroft what time she wants to meet us, for her main ..."
Groupie: "What are watching?"
Film al fondo: "If you'll just let me know as soon as you can ... Mrs Bancroft" "Mrs Bancroft ..."
Groupie: "Hello?"
Film al fondo: "I don't understand ..."
Groupie: "Are you feeling okay?..."

Day after day, love turns grey
Like the skin of a dying man.
Night after night, we pretend its all right
But I have grown older and
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?

Would you like to call the cops?
Do you think it's time I stopped?
Why are you running away?


Don't Leave Me Now.
(Waters)

Ooooh, babe
Don't leave me now.
Don't say it's the end of the road.
Remember the flowers I sent.
I need you, babe
To put through the shredder 
In front of my friends
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.
How could you treat me this way?
Running away.
Oooooh Babe!
Why are you running away?


Another Brick In The Wall (Part III).
(Waters)

"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 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.
(Waters)

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.


Disco 2.


Hey You.
(Waters)

Hey you, out there in the cold
Getting lonely, getting old 
Can you feel me?
Hey you, standing in the aisles
With itchy feet and fading smiles 
Can you feel me?
Hey you, don't help them to bury the light
Don't give in without a fight.

Hey you, out there on your own
Sitting naked by the phone 
Would you touch me?
Hey you, with you ear against the wall
Waiting for someone to call out 
Would you touch me?
Hey you, would you help me to carry the stone?
Open your heart, I'm coming home.

But it was only fantasy.
The wall was too high, 
As you can see.
No matter how he tried, 
He could not break free.
And the worms ate into his brain.

Hey you, standing in the road
always doing what you're told, 
Can you help me?
Hey you, out there beyond the wall,
Breaking bottles in the hall, 
Can you help me?
Hey you, don't tell me there's no hope at all
Together we stand, divided we fall.


Is There Anybody Out There?
(Waters)

"Well, only got an hour of daylight left. Better get started"
"Isn't it unsafe to travel at night?"
"It'll be a lot less safe to stay here. You're father's gunna pick up our trail before long"
"Can Loca ride?"
"Yeah, I can ride... Magaret, time to go! Maigret, thank you for everything"
"Goodbye Chenga"
"Goodbye miss ..."
"I'll be back"

Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?
Is there anybody out there?


Nobody Home.
(Waters)

"Alright, I'll take care of them part of the time, but there's somebody else that needs taking care of in Washington"
"Who's that?"
"Rose Pilchitt!"
"Rose Pilchitt? Who's that?"
"Shut Up!"
"36-24-36 does that answer your question?"
"Oi! I've got a little black book with me poems in!"
"Who's she?"
"She was 'Miss Armoured Division' in 1961 ... "

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 keepin my shoes on.
Got those swollen hand blues.
I got thirteen channels of shit on the T.V. to choose from.
I've got electric light.
And I've got second sight.
And amazing powers of observation.
And that is how I know
When I try to get through 
On the telephone to you
There'll be nobody home.

I've got the obligatory Hendrix perm.
And the inevitable pinhole burns
All down the front of my favorite satin shirt.
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.

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

"Surprise, surprise, surprise..."
There's still nobody home.

I've got a pair of Gohills boots
and I got fading roots.

"Where the hell are you?"
"Over 47 german planes were destroyed with the loss of only 15 of our own aircraft"
"Where the hell are you Simon?"


Vera.
(Waters)

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.
(Waters)

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.

"Wrong! Do it again!"
"Time to go!
"Are you feeling okay?"
"There's a man answering, but he keeps hanging up!"
Is there anybody out there?


Comfortably Numb.
(Gilmour/Waters)

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.
Relax.
I'll need some information first.
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 would not understand
This is not how I am.
I have become comfortably numb.

O.K.
Just a little pinprick.
There'll be no more aaaaaaaaah!
But you may feel a little sick.
Can you stand up?
I do believe it's working, good.
That'll keep you going through the show
Come on it's time to go.

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.


The Show Must Go On.
(Waters)

Ooooh, Ma, Oooh Pa
Must the show go on?
Ooooh, Pa. Take me home
Ooooh, Ma. Let me go

There must be some mistake
I didnt mean to let them 
Take away my soul.
Am I too old, is it too late?

Ooooh, Ma, Ooooh Pa,
Where has the feeling gone?
Ooooh, Ma, Ooooh Pa,
Will I remember the songs?
The show must go on.


In The Flesh.
(Waters)

So ya
Thought ya
Might like to 
Go to the show.
To feel that warm thrill of confusion,
That space cadet glow.
I've got some bad news for you sunshine,
Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel
And they sent us along as a surrogate band
We're gonna find out where you folks really stand.

Are there any queers in the theater tonight?
Get them up against the wall!
There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right to me,
Get him up against the wall!
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 another with spots!
If I had my way, 
I'd have all of you shot!


Run Like Hell.
(Gilmour/Waters)

"Pink Floyd, Pink Floyd"

Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, 
Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run, Run.
You better make your face up in
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
When the cockleshell shatters
And the hammers batter 
Down the 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 girlfriend 
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.

"Hey, open up! HaHaHaHaHaaaaaaaaaa!
"Hammer, Hammer"


Waiting For The Worms.
(Waters)

"Eins, zwei, drei, alle!"

Ooooh, you cannot reach me now
Ooooh, no matter how you try
Goodbye, cruel world, it's over
Walk on by.

Sitting in a bunker here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms to come.
In perfect isolation here behind my wall
Waiting for the worms to come.

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 clean up the city.
Waiting to follow the worms.
Waiting to put on a black shirt.
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.
Waiting to turn on the showers
And fire the ovens.
Waiting for the queens and the coons
and the reds and the jews.
Waiting to follow the worms.

Would you like to see Britannia
Rule again, my friend?
All you have to do is follow the worms.
Would you like to send our colored cousins
Home 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. (... ..) ."


Stop.
(Waters)

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.
(Waters/Ezrin)

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
Incontrivertable, 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 penaltie of law.
The way you made them suffer,
Your exquisite wife and mother,
Fills me with the urge to defecate!

"Hey Judge! Shit on him!" 
Since, my friend, you have revealed your 
Deepest fear,
I sentence you to be exposed before 
Your peers.
Tear down the wall!


The Tide is Turning (After Live Aid).
(Waters)

I used to think the world was flat
Rarely threw my hat into the crowd
I felt I had used up my quota of
yearning
Used to look in on the children at night
In the glow of their Donald Duck light
And I frighten myself with the thought
of my little ones burning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Satellites buzzing through the endless
night
Exclusive to moonshots and world title
fights
Jesus Christ, imagine what it must be
earning
Who is the strongest
Who is the best
Who holds the aces
The East
Or the West
This is the crap our children are learning
And oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Oh, oh, oh, the tide is turning
Now the satellite's confused
'Cos on Saturday night
The airwaves were full of compassion
and light
And his silicon heart warmed
To the sight of a billion candles burning
But, I'm not saying that the battle is
won
But on Saturday night all those kids in
the sun
Wrested technology's sword from the
hand of the war lords
Oh, the tide is turning
Oh, the tide is turning
Oh, the tide is turning
Oh, the tide is turning.

  1. The Wall - Live in Berlin fue un concierto en vivo del álbum de estudio de Pink Floyd, The Wall, que se celebró en Berlín, Alemania, el 21 de julio de 1990, para conmemorar la caída del Muro de Berlín ocho meses antes, el 9 de noviembre de 1989. Un álbum en vivo del concierto fue lanzado en septiembre de 1990. Un video del concierto también fue puesto a la venta.

    Un concierto de magnitudes épicas con el que estrellas del rock terminaron definitivamente con la separación cultural no sólo de las dos Alemanias existentes en ese entonces, sino también de los dos bloques económicos reinantes en esa época. Promovido por Roger Waters y con la participación de estrellas de la talla de Van Morrison, Scorpions, Ute Lemper, Marianne Faithfull, The Band, Cyndi Lauper y Bryan Adams, se realizó para apoyar a la entonces llamada Memorial Fund For Disaster Relief, fundación creada para paliar en parte el impacto de cualquier guerra o desastre natural sobre todo en Europa.

    Contando con la colaboración de los artistas que crearon el concepto original para teatro, Waters en compañía de Jonathan Park para el diseño del escenario y los impresionantes globos utilizados en el montaje, con las animaciones de Gerald Scarfe proyectadas a lo largo del concierto, el 21 de julio de 1990 en la Potsdamer Platz, se llevó a cabo el evento.

    El concierto contó con una asistencia de más de 300.000 personas.
