    Default The Wall

    There's a song on the movie "The Wall" that I cannot find on the actual album. It the song that plays when the flowers somewhat morph into the male and female parts and they bond... the lyrics go " wh**es from the east contract disease...something cherry cokes delight.." it finishes with the words "with out backs to the wall" it's a catchy tune, but I cannot find the name of it anywhere.

    Can it be some kind of alteration version from Pink Floyd's Empty Spaces?

    I believe the track you're talking about is What Shall We Do Now

    I don't know the album as such but I have found out that the lyrics for What Shall We Do Now are printed on the inner sleeve but the song didn't make it to the album as Side 2 was too long, therefore the song was dropped.

    "Two flowers are "mating", but it turns into a bloody fight between dragons and sexes. A hammer hits against the camera-lens."

    These are the words:

    Shall we buy a new guitar?
    Shall we drive a more powerful car?
    Shall we work straight through the night?
    Shall we get into fights?
    Leave the lights on?
    Drop bombs?
    Do tours of the east?
    Contract disease?
    Bury bones?
    Break up homes?
    Send flowers by phone?
    Take to drink?
    Go to shrinks?
    Give up meat?
    Rarely sleep?



    This link gives you more song changes from the film to album:

    Click where it says Pink Floyd The Wall (film) - purple writing.

    Hope that answers your query.

    (And Lollipop, in a way you were right...it was altered in that the second part 'What Shall We Do Now' was dropped from the album - in the film Empty Spaces is played immediately before
    What Shall We Do Now).
