ANIMALS

After 'Dark Side', my favourite Pink Floyd album. Like the searing guitar riffs, animal sound effects, and the general pace of this. 'Dogs' has some memorable lyrics: 'you'll pack up fly down South,hide your head in the sand, just another sad old man, all alone, and dying of cancer'. I always think of the actor Steve McQueen at that point, who 3 years later (1980) headed desperately to a clinic in Mexico in search of a cancer cure, but sadly wasn't (died there). The line 'and when you lose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown'. For those of us with revenge fantasies, what a great line.
