Lyrics/Muziek: Roger Waters

In Perfect Sense part 2 hoor je de beroemde sportverslaggever Marv Albert verslag doen van een oorlog alsof het een basketbalwedstrijd betreft, en de massa zingt in koor :

“Zie je het niet
Het is allemaal heel logisch
Uitgedrukt in dollars en centen
Ponden, shillings en pence”

Terug te vinden op:

Amused To Death
In The Flesh
Flickering Flame

Songtekst:

Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
Little black soul departs in perfects focus
Prime time fodder for the News at Nine
Darling is the child warm in the bed tonight
Hi everybody I’m Mary Albert
And welcome to our telecast
Coming to you live from Memorial Stadium
It’s a beautiful day
And today we expect a sensational matchup
But first our global anthem
Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
And here come the players
As I speak to you now the captain
Has his cross hairs zeroed in the oil rig
It looks to me like he’s going to attack
By the way dis you know that a submarine
Captain earns 200,000 dollars a year
Oh that’s less tax Marv yeah less tax
Uh thank you Emery you’re welcome
Now back to the game he fires one yes
There goes two both fish are running
The rig is going into a prevent defense
Will they make it I don’t think so
Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
Expressed in dollars and cents
Pounds shillings and pence
Can’t you see
It all make perfect sense
