"Get Your Filthy Hands Off My Desert" is a song from Pink Floyd's 1983 album, The Final Cut. It was never performed live by the band, though it's been played at nearly every live performance Roger Waters has played since 1987, often as a medley with "Southampton Dock." It was featured in said medley on Roger Waters's live DVD In the Flesh Live.
Sound effects employed, a similar effect in this song was later used as a segue on Roger Water's 1992 solo album Amused to Death, branching the two part song "Late Home Tonight."
