Death By Pink Floyd

Death By Pink Floyd

A Poem by Devons
"

Compiled entirely from Pink Floyd song titles (1970-1994)

"

What do you want from me?

Hey you -

            Is there anybody out there?

Outside the wall

If one of these days

When you’re in

Lost for words

Speak to me

Fearless, in the flesh

                   Wot’s.. uh the deal?

 

Sheep, dogs, pigs -

                   On the run, run like hell

A great day for freedom

Us and them

The happiest days of our lives -

                   The gold, it’s in the…

…the great gig in the sky -

Welcome to the machine

                   Have a cigar

Shine on you crazy diamond

 

Childhood’s end - take it back -

Money, high hopes, young lust -

                     Pigs on the wing

Echoes, poles apart,

                     Obscured by clouds

Brain damage, another brick in the wall

Any colour you like -

                     Eclipse, a pillow of winds -

Stop the trial, breathe time

       Burning bridges coming back to life.

 

Keep talking, comfortably numb

Waiting for the worms, one of my turns -

  Stay, mother, don’t leave me now

Marooned, wearing the inside out -

Empty spaces, the thin ice

     Nobody home, absolutely curtains

Goodbye blue sky, fat old sun

     Goodbye cruel world, mudmen

The show must go on…

                   …bring the boys back home.

Fantastic! You have taken their best titles and arranged them perfectly! Death in slow motion, obscure thoughts during the process, Love it!
