Ringmaster:
Within our humble sawdust ring
The players all arranged
The powerful and puny
The faintly and deranged
The honest bird, the future Queen
All sentient and green
Sparring all the livelong day
Make ready for our play
So gentles all, who will hold sway
To a garden in Vienna
Let us make our way
"Madame Antoine, Madame Antoine"
Marie Therese:
Madame Antoine, Madame Antoine
It's getting dark outside
It's time to come in
Madame Antoine:
Oh, Mother
Marie Therese:
Madame Antoine, Madame Antoine
It's getting dark outside
It's time to come in
Madame Antoine:
Yes, yes, mother, I'm coming
One day...
One day I'll be Queen
Lay on peaches and cream
Wear satin and lace
And laugh in the faces of the teachers
And priests
And the boys will all faun
Faun before me like beasts
Honest Bird:
Little princess so sure you are right
But your endless day is their endless night
You can preen in the limelight
In your diamonds and pearls
But the children go hungry
In that other world
Madame Antoine:
Little sparrow fly back to wherever you're from
You can never imagine the plane I live on
The intricate steps with the tumblers and clowns
Fly above and beyond you cock robin
So just you pipe down
Roger Waters, all'anagrafe George Roger Waters, è un cantautore, musicista e compositore britannico nato a Great Horwood, Buckinghamshire, il 6 settembre 1943. È noto soprattutto come bassista e cofondatore dei Pink Floyd, con cui ha raggiunto fama mondiale negli anni '70 grazie a album iconici come *The Dark Side of the Moon* (1973), *Wish You Were Here* (1975) e *Animals* (1977). Waters è stato il principale autore di testi e musiche dei Pink Floyd fino al 1985, quando ha lasciato la band a causa di contrasti interni. Dopo la sua uscita dai Pink Floyd, Waters ha intrapreso una carriera solista di successo, pubblicando album come *The Pros and Cons of Hitch Hiking* (1984), *Radio K.A.O.S.* (1987) e *Amnesiac* (2001). Le sue opere sono caratterizzate da testi spesso politici e sociali, che affrontano temi come la guerra, la violenza, il consumismo e la perdita di identità. Tra i suoi brani più famosi figurano "Another Brick in the Wall", "Comfortably Numb", "Us and Them" e "Money". Waters è considerato uno dei musicisti più influenti del XX secolo, con un'impronta indelebile sulla musica rock progressiva.
