[Verse 1]
EmCome in here dear boy have a cigar you're gonna go far,
You're gonna fly high, you're Cnever gonna die,
You're gonna Dmake it if you try, they're gonna Emlove you.
EmWell I've always had a deep respect and I mean that most sincerely,
The band is just fantastic that is Creally what I think,
Oh Dby the way, which one's EmPink?
And did we Ctell you the Dname of the Ggame, Cboy,
We call it "DRiding the gravy Gtrain".C  G

EmWe're just knocked out, we heard about the sell out,
You've gotta get an album out, you Cowe it to the people,
We're so Dhappy we can hardly Emcount.
EmEverybody else is just green, have you seen the chart?
It's a helluva start, it could be Cmade into a monster,
If we Dall pull together as a Emteam.
And did we Ctell you the Dname of the Ggame, Cboy,
We call it "DRiding the gravy Gtrain".C  G

The story behind the song

This song is a sharp critique of the music business, exposing the hypocrisy and greed that can fester within it. Written by Roger Waters, it captures the demanding attitude of a record executive after a band's success, almost as a follow-up to the themes explored in "Money." The lyrics paint a picture of cynicism prevalent in the management of rock groups. Playing this song means channeling a sense of disillusionment and a biting commentary on the industry.
