I wonder if anyone has scripts of what is spoken on a lot of Roger's songs (Alf Razzell talking about Bill Hubbard etc..)

Are these true stories, spoken about by the people that lived them?

In particular I am curious about the woman on "Three Wishes"

OK - found a transcript - thanks to rogerwatersonline.com but nothing about the background behind the story - any ideas out there ?? ???

And I tidied the flat and everything
And then they were asleep and everything was a kind of night
I made a bed in the bathroom
I carried them there, and put on the gas bottle
But today when I think back about that
If God did take me, then I would've have been in hell because it wasn't right

...SONG...

sometimes only once
And sometimes when I feel like crying, I just[/color]
