Written by Roger Waters

Em                C                 G     Em
Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are
                           C                 G    Em
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are
    C                         G
And when your hand is on your heart
A7
You're nearly a good laugh, almost a joker

With your head down the pigbin saying keep on digging
Am7
Pig stain on your fat chin

What do you hope to find down in the pig mine

You're nearly a laugh, you're nearly a laugh
                 Em    C         Em  D  Em  D  Em  D  Em  D
But you really a cry______

Em                C                 G      Em
Bus stop rat bag, ha ha charade you are
                       C                 G    Em
You fucked up old hag, ha ha charade you are
C                                 G
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass
A7
You're nearly a good laugh, almost worth a quick grin

You like the feel of steel, you're hot stuff with a hat pin
Am7
And good fun with a hand gun
You're nearly a laugh, you're nearly a laugh
                    Em    C     Em  D  Em  D  Em  D  Em  D
But you're really a cry______
