Late Home Tonight, Part II Lyrics

Cover art for Late Home Tonight, Part II lyrics by Roger Waters

"The song is about something having to do with war."

Gee, you think?

The song is about how a mom'n'apple pie young kid can be told to just follow orders, follow routine, fly halfway around the world, bomb another country, and the only negative consequence he'll suffer is that he'll be slightly later home than usual. Chilling.
