The child is beautiful
Just look into his big brown eyes
Could be Gardel
Could be Márquez
Just need a little help to fly

Si el paisaje se cierra
Otro cielo se abrirá
Con sol o entre la niebla
Los niños volarán

There's a gathering of angels
...
The cadencies of friendship
Reach from Pythagoras to ...

Y escuchamos a Mozart
Escuchamos a Brahms
In the ... and canyons
In the factories and the folks

En las favelas de Río
En los Andes en Perú
From East L.A. to Patagonia
In the old world and the new

Roger Waters, the lyrical mastermind behind most of Pink Floyd’s work in the 1970s, was the band’s bassist, vocalist and, at one point, its front man. He solidified himself as one of music’s greatest poets with Animals, a picture of modern society metaphorized as animals, and The Wall, an epic rock opera that follows a rockstar’s declining mental state and disillusionment with the world around him.

After leaving Pink Floyd, he went on to create even more works that geared towards geopolitical themes, with the electrifying Radio K.A.O.S. and the provoking Amused to Death.
