[edit] First Conversation

What does the man in the middle of the song say? I can't exactly tell. He seems to be talking to the beat of the song.

"I mean, they're not gunna kill ya, so if you give 'em a quick short, sharp, shock, they don't do it again. Dig it? I mean he get off lightly, 'cos I would've given him a thrashing - I only hit him once! It was only a difference of right and wrong, innit. I mean good manners don't cost nothing do they, eh?"

I ammended the quote, seeing as you can hear the speech on it's own on the Doctored Version of this song --Cowards 15:43, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Original Research

40's jazz style? That's the proof that the song is about Roger Water's father? Maybe I would believe that if I saw some kind of reference but as it stand it should probably be removed. --Cdogsimmons 03:23, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Major edit...

I modified the infobox that tells you about the album "The Dark Side of The Moon" in its generality because it had some severe errors with formatting; misaligned and a bunch of other problems to go with it. Fishdert 01:25, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


Who plays the Sax on this song? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.223.23.52 (talk) 17:59, 3 September 2007 (UTC)

Seems likely that Dick Parry would have played sax on it as he did the rest of the album, —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.194.200.101 (talk) 23:37, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
