TITLE: Another Brick in the Wall
Lyrics and Chords


I.
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

/ Dm - - - / / / Dm - G - / - - Dm - / F C Dm - / /

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

/ F - Bb - F - Bb - F - Bb - C - - - /

II.
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

/ Dm - - - / / / Dm - G - / - - Dm - / F C Dm - / /

"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!"
