There's a mad dog pulling at his chain
A hint of danger in his eye
Alarm bells raging round his brain
And the chimney's broken in the sky
Wake up
Wake up and smell the roses
Close your eyes and pray this wind don't change
There's nothing but screams in the field of dreams
Nothing but hope at the end of the road
Nothing but gold in the chimney smoke
Come on honey it's real money
This is the room where they make the explosives
Where they put your name on the bomb
Here's where they bury the buts and the ifs
And scratch out words like right and wrong
Wake up
Wake up and smell the phosphorus
This is the room we keep a human heir
Don't ask don't tell it couldn't be lost for us
Yeah, little less cash in the stash in the cupboard
At the bottom of the stair
Money, honey
Wake up
Wake up and smell the bacon
Run your greasy fingers through her hair
This is the life that you have taken
Just a line in the captain's log
Just a whine from a resident dog
Another kid didn't make the grade
Come on honey it's a fair trade
Wake up
Wake up and smell the roses
Throw a photo on the funeral pyre
Yeah, now we can forget the threat she poses
Girl you know you couldn't get much higher
Roger Waters, born George Roger Waters on September 6, 1943, in Great Horwood, Buckinghamshire, is a British singer-songwriter, musician, and composer. He is best known as the bassist and co-founder of Pink Floyd, with whom he achieved worldwide fame in the 1970s thanks to iconic albums such as *The Dark Side of the Moon* (1973), *Wish You Were Here* (1975), and *Animals* (1977). Waters was the primary lyricist and composer for Pink Floyd until 1985, when he left the band due to internal conflicts. After his departure from Pink Floyd, Waters embarked on a successful solo career, releasing albums such as *The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking* (1984), *Radio K.A.O.S.* (1987), and *Amnesiac* (2001). His works are characterized by often political and social lyrics that address themes such as war, violence, consumerism, and the loss of identity. Among his most famous songs are "Another Brick in the Wall", "Comfortably Numb", "Us and Them", and "Money".
