(The Thin Ice)
Mama loves her baby
And Daddy loves you, too
And the sea may look warm to ya, babe
And the sky may look blue
Oo-oo-oo-oo, babe
Oo-oo-oo, baby blue
Oo-oo-oo, oo-oo, babe

If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million tear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice
Appears under your feet
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out behind you
You as you claw the thin ice

Daddy's flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
A snapshot in the family album
Daddy, what else did you leave for me
Daddy, wha'dya 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

The Happiest Days of Our Lives
You, yes you, stand still, laddie
When we grew up and went to school
There were certain teachers
Who would hurt the children in any way they could
By pouring their derision
Upon anything we did
Exposing every weakness
However carefully hidden by the kids
/ Am - / / Am C Am - / Am - / C - / Am - / G - Am - - - /
But in the town it was well known
When they got home at night
Their fat and psychopathic wives would thrash them
Within inches of their lives
/ Dm - / F - / G - / C - /
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave those kids alone
Hey, teacher, leave those kids alone
All in all, it's just another brick in the wall
All in all, you're just another brick in the wall
/ Dm - - - / / / Dm - G - / - - Dm - / F C Dm - / /
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers, leave those kids alone
Hey, teacher, leave those kids alone
All in all, you're just another brick in the wall
All in all, you're just another brick in the wall
III.
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 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

"Time to go."
"Wrong do it again!"
"If you don't eat your meat, you can't have any pudding, how can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat!"
"You! Yes, you! behind the bikesheds, stand still laddie!"
