    Did Roger Waters really pen a song called "Smell the Roses"? What has the world come to?!

    None of the new songs he's performed recently, such as Lay Down Jerusalem, Crystal Clear Brooks, and Safe And Sound.

    He actually admitted that in a recent interview.

    I was about to write the same. Curious. I really expected those to be on the album. Heck, I even expected a new version of 'To Kill the Child'...

    Maybe they've been re-named or re-purposed into other songs.

    I believe Lay Down Jerusalem (If I Had Been God) has been renamed to Deja Vu. Clocking in at 4:27 according to iTunes it appears Nigel has reigned the rambling in.

    Yup, and it's on iTunes and Spotify. Not impressed.

    Crystal Clear Brooks didn't appear to make the cut.

    I hope you're laughing at the world needing Roger and not Amused to Death being his strongest effort. The first is hyperbole...the second I believe to be truth. :)

    There's a mad dog pulling at his chain
    A hint of danger in his eye
    Alarm bells raging around his brain
    And the chimneys ??? in the sky
    Wake up, wake up and smell the roses
    Close your eyes and pray this wind don't change
    Because not much screams in the field of dreams
    Nothing but hope at the end of the rope
    Nothing but gold in the chimney smoke
    Come on honey it's real money

    This is the room where they make the explosives
    Where they put your name on the bomb
    Here's where they bury the buts and the ifs
    And scratch out words like right and wrong
    Wake up, wake up and smell the phosphorus
    This is the room we keep the human hair
    Don't ask don't tell it could mean a lot for us, yeah
    A little less cash in the stash in the cupboard at the bottom of the stair(s?), money? honey

    Wake up, wake up and smell the bacon
    Run your greasy fingers through her hair
    This is the life that you have taken

    Just a line in the captains log
    Just a whine from a rescue dog
    Another kid didn't make the grade
    Come on honey it's a fair trade
    Wake up, wake up and smell the roses
    Throw her photo on the funeral pyre, yeah
    Now we can't forget the threat she poses?
    Girl you know you couldn't get much higher

    It's active now.
     
  25. Honestly, my opinion of "Louder Than Words" has seriously only improved, having just heard this new Waters track for the first time less than 20 minutes ago.
