They can have their pudding

From Drudge.

All those little British kids from Pink Floyd's "Another Brick in the Wall" are looking forward to their royalties. Interesting reading--I always just assumed Roger Waters or whoever walked into a music school in London and said "Hiyo, chap! I need, hmm, let's call it 2 dozen singing children at my studio for a grand total of maybe 3 minutes, give or take? Right then. A good day to you!"

Which they could do these days. Yeah, hard to imagine there was a time when Pink Floyd was subversive.

And yeah, not having a firm mental picture of Roger Waters, it's mostly John Cleese ringing through my head. "Have you met the poor?"
