• Pink : [singing]  Are there any queers in the audience tonight? Get 'em up against the wall! That one in the spotlight, he don't look right! Get him up against the wall! And that one looks Jewish... and that one's a coon! Who let all this riff raff into the room? That one's smoking a joint! And that one's got spots! If I had my way, I'd have all of you shot!

• Pink : [singing]  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, teachers, leave them kids alone! All in all, it's just another brick in the wall. All in all, you're just another brick in the wall.

• Pink : [singing]  Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there? Is there anybody out there?

• Pink : [singing]  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, what'd ya 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.

• Pink : Stop! I wanna go home, take off this uniform, and leave the show. I'm waiting in this cell because I have to know... have I been guilty all this time?

• Pink : [singing]  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 at all, it was all just bricks in the wall. All in all, you were all just bricks in the wall.

• Pink : TAKE THAT FUCKERS!

• [first lines] 

  Pink : [singing]  So ya, thought ya might like to, go to the show. To feel the warm thrill of confusing that space cadet glow. Tell me is something eluding you sunshine? Is this not what you expected to see? If you wanna find out what's behind these cold eyes, you'll just have to claw your way through this disguise!

• Pink : Stoooooooooop!

• Pink : [speaking and screaming into megaphone]  The worms will convince outside Brixton Bud Station will be moving along at about twelve o' clock down Stockwell road, and then point will start heading Abbots road and walk calmly with resistance, leaving twelve minutes to three will be moving along Lambeth road towards Vauxhall Bridge. Now when we get to the other side of Vauxhall Bridge where in the Westminster brought area it's quite possible we may encounter some Jew boys all the way from four and five and take them back by the way we go. And they came Midds Abbots and we saw them killed! Million of gay people screaming murder, murder came all around and shoot! Remember to make it to high clock corner or all of you are killed! Were in the door! now close the door, close the damn door! the door! the door! the door!

• Pink : [singing quitely to himself with his poems in a bathroom stall]  Do you remember me? The way it used to be? Do you think we should have been closer? Put out my hand, just to touch your soft hair. To make sure in the darkness, that you were still there. And I have to admit, I was just a little afraid. Of the ones living under the dirty old knife. And the ones who were pointed with guns to their backs.

• Pink : And that's how the High Command took my Daddy from me.

• Pink : You'll always be a baby to me.

• Pink : [singing]  I got the obligatory Hendrix perm, And the inevitable pinhole burns, All down the front of my favorite satin shirt, I've got nicotine stains on my fingers, I've got a silver spoon on a chain...

• Pink : [singing]  Got those swollen-hand blues, I've got 13 channels of shit on the TV to choose from...

• Pink : [singing]  Why are you running away?

• Pink : [singing]  Mother, do you think they'll drop the bomb, Mother, do you think they'll like the song, Mother, do you think they'll try to break my balls, Mother, should I build the wall...

• Pink : [singing]  I got a strong urge to fly, But I got nowhere to fly to...

• Pink : [singing]  You are only coming through in waves, Your lips move, But I can't hear what you're saying...

• Pink : [in his fascist persona]  I got some bad news for you, sunshine. Pink isn 't well. He's, uh, back at the hotel. And they sent us along as a surrogate band. Now tonight, we 're gonna find out where you fans really stand!

• Pink : [singing]  When I was a child, I caught a fleeting glimpse, Out of the corner of my eye, I turned to look but it was gone, I cannot put my finger on it now, The child is grown, The dream is gone, I, have become, Comfortably numb...

• Pink : [singing]  Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn, Remember how she said, That we would meet again, Some sunny day, Vera, Vera, What has become of you, Does anybody else in here, Feel the way I do...

• Pink : [singing]  Oh, babe, When I pick up the phone, There's still nobody home...

• Pink : Mother, am I really dying?

• Pink : [singing]  Would you like to see, Britannia rule again, My friend, All you need to do, Is follow the worms...

• Pink : Day after day loves turns gray like the skin on a dying man and night after night we pretend its all right but I grown older and you have grown colder and nothing is very much fun anymore.

• Pink : It was just before dawn one Moring in black 44 when the forward commander was told to sit tight when he asked that his men be withdrawn and the general gave thanks as the other ranks held back the enemy tanks for a while.
