ATF: Tri-Wall

This series will include as many of my all-time favorite (ATF) tunes as I can get my grubby little hands on (so to speak).  Now, each one included in each edition will have some connection with the other—albeit only as a figment of my imagination, but they will not be numbered.  For I just cannot bring myself to rate some higher than others.  So, this will not be a countdown, but if you are enjoying them as much as I do, it won’t matter.  Besides, with no countdown, this could go on forever and ever!  Oh, and despite the fact that there is absolutely no way your musical tastes could be as exquisite as mine, I welcome any suggestions you might dare to make.  For I am, after all, quite magnanimous by nature.



The Wall (Parts 1-3)
Pink Floyd
Daddy’s flown across the ocean
Leavin’ just a memory
A snapshot in the family album
Daddy what else did you leave for me
Daddy what’d’ja leave behind for me

All in all it was
Just a brick in the wall
All in all it was
All just bricks in the wall

When
When
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers
Who would hurt the children
Anyway they could
By pouring their derision
Upon anything we did
Exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids

But in
But in
But in the town it was well known
That when they got home at night
Their fat and psychopathic wives
Would thrash them within inches of their lives

We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher
Leave them kids alone
Hey
Teacher
Leave them kids alone
All in all it’s just a
Another brick in the wall
All in all you’re just a
Another brick in the wall

We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher
Leave us kids alone
Hey
Teacher
Leave us kids alone
All in all you’re just a
Another brick in the wall
All in all you’re just a
Another brick in the wall

I don’t need no arms around me
And I don’t need no drugs to calm me
I have seen the writing on the wall
Don’t think I need anything at all
No
Don’t think I’ll need anything at all

All in all it was
All just bricks in the wall
All in all you were
All just bricks in the wall

  1. Lyrics are interesting, and I know the name of the group but can say I didn't listen to them very often.
    Hope you had a good Christmas.

    1. Thanks for stopping by, my dear Margaret!!! I suspect that they can be heard a lot on classic rock stations, but since I rarely listen to the radio anymore, I do not know for sure.
