The reference is also in another episode of South Park when Cartman is being babby-sitted by Shelly. He also says to her "Ha ha Charade you are"

I think the interpretation of the lyrics below is subjective and should be reworded to reflect that.

"The second verse, however, is an all out assault on then opposition leader Margaret Thatcher (who the band indirectly say they wish to shoot - 'Good fun with a hand gun'..."

That the band are stating in this line that they want to shoot someone is debatable.


[edit] first line

Im not gonna edit the article, because i'm not sure, but I think that the first line is about callaghan, which was the prime minister during the making of the song. He was a bit corpulent (big man) and had trouble with the mining business (the references of mine in the song). He was defeated in the elections by tatcher (who was waiting to tak power: the bus stop). I think this is the correct vision of the first verse, which would make more sense than what the meaning is now, the meaning now are the dogs and not pigs.

[edit] Rhythm guitar

Is there any sources regarding Roger Waters playing rhythm guitar on this track? According to "The Pink Encyclopedia" Gilmour played all guitar parts. Floyd(Norway) 17:01, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
