Roger Waters - The Anderson Shelter lyrics

Hilda Bloggs: It's funny to think there's no shelters this time. We had an old Anderson in the garden. I can see it now! We have stertians growing all over it. And we painted the front green. Painted it looked quite pretty! Next door grew cabbages on theirs. Jim Bloggs: Yeah. We had a Morrison. Mmm, I used to sleep in it. I stuck pin-up girls all over the inside. Betty Grabel, Ann Shelton, Tricia Rock. The roof got all smokey 'cause I used to read in bed with a candle. Hilda Bloggs: Yes, it was nice at the war really. The shelters, the blackouts, cups of tea. Jim Bloggs: The A.R.P., the evacuees, London kids seeing cows for the first time. Hilda Bloggs: Old Churchill on the wireless! Jim Bloggs: Those were the days.
