Lyrics

[Verse 1: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] Us and them And after all, we're only ordinary men [Verse 2: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] Me and you God only knows it's not what we would choose to do [Chorus 1: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] "Forward!" he cried from the rear And the front rank died The general sat and the lines on the map Moved from side to side [Verse 3: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] Black and blue And who knows which is which and who is who? [Verse 4: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] Up and down And in the end it's only round and round, and round [Chorus 2: David Gilmour & Richard Wright] "Haven't you heard it's a battle of words?" The poster bearer cried "Listen, son," said the man with the gun "There's room for you inside"
