Escrita por John Lennon, foi gravada entre julho e agosto de 1973 e lançada no disco Mind games, em 16 de novembro. A letra trata de John se desculpando pra Yoko. Ai sumimasen significa I'm sorry em japonês. O que Lennon entendeu como Aisumasen. É similar a I want you (She's so heavy), do disco Abbey Road. John vinha lutando com a harmonia dessa canção desde 1971, para poder aprontar. O solo de guitarra dessa música, feita por David Spinozza, é incrivel. John cantou e tocou violão. David Spinozza tocou guitarra. Pete Kleinoew tocou pedal steel guitar. Ken Asher tocou teclado. Gordon Edwrads tocou baixo. Jim Keltner tocou bateria.

A letra:

When I'm down really yin
And I don't know what I'm doing
Aisumasen

Aisumasen Yoko

All I had to do was call your name

All I had to do was call your name

And when I hurt you and cause you pain
Darling I promise I won't do it again

Aisumasen

Aisumasen Yoko
It's hard enough I know just to feel your own pain

It's hard enough I know to feel, to feel your own pain

All that I know is just what you tell me
All that I know is just what you show me

And when I'm down real sanpaku
And I don't know what to do
Aisumasen

Aisumasen Yoko san
All I had to do was call your name
Yes, all I had to do was call your name

A letra:

Mary queen of Arkansas, it's not too early for dreamin'
The sky is grown with cloud seed sown and a bastard's love can be redeeming
Mary, my queen, your soft hulk is reviving
No, you're not too late to desecrate, the servants are just rising

Well, I'm just a lonely acrobat, the live wire is my trade
I've been a shine boy for your acid brat and a wharf rat of your state
Mary, my queen, your blows for freedom are missing
Oh you're not man enough for me to hate or woman enough for kissing

Oh, the big top is for dreamers, we can take the circus all the way to the border
And the gallows wait for martyrs whose papers are in order
But I was not born to live to die, and you were not born for queenin'
Oh, It's not to late to infiltrate, the servants are just leavin'

Mary queen of Arkansas, your white skin is deceivin'
You wake and wait who to lie in bait and you almost got me believin'
But on your bed, Mary, I can see the shadow of a noose
Oh, I don't understand how you can hold me so tight and love me so damn loose

But I know a place where we can go, Mary
Where I can get a good job and start out all over again clean
Oh, I got contacts deep in Mexico where the servants have been seen

Escrita por Roger Waters e Richard Wright, sendo a música de Richard e a letra de Roger, foi gravada em 1 de junho de 1972 e terminada em 9 de janeiro de 1973. Foi lançada em 1 de março de 1973 no disco The dark side of the moon e depois foi lançada em 4 de fevereiro de 1974, com Time no Lado B. Trata-se de uma canção calma no tom e na dinâmica, com uma forte influência de jazz, ainda que no refrão fique mais barulhenta. Tem dois solos de sax. A música foi escrita ainda 1969 e tinha o título de The Violet Sequence. A letra fala da natureza da guerra e da ignorancia do dia-a-dia dos humanos que foram tomados pelos consumismo e materialismo. O primeiro verso é sobre ir pra uma guerra. Como no front não temos a chance de se comunicar com os outros, porque alguém decidiu que não devemos. O segundo verso é sobre liberdade civil e racismo. O terceiro verso é sobre passar por um sujeito na rua que pede esmola e não ajudá-lo. David Gilmour toca guitarra elétrica e canta os versos e refrão. Richard Wright toca orgao Hammond, piano e faz harmonias vocais no refrão. Roger Waters toca baixo e Nick Mason toca bateria. Dick Parry toca sax. Lesley Dundan, Doris Troy, Barry St. John e Liza Strike fizeram backing vocals.

A letra:

Us and them
And after all, we're only ordinary men
Me and you
God only knows, it's not what we would choose to do

Forward he cried from the rear
And the front rank died
The General sat, and the lines on the map
Moved from side to side

Black and blue
And who knows which is which and who is who
Up and down
And in the end, it's only round and round and round

Haven't you heard it's a battle of words
The poster bearer cried
Listen son, said the man with the gun
There's room for you inside

(Well I mean, They're maybe gonna kill ya.
So like, if you give 'em a quick, short, sharp, shock, they don't do it again.
Dig it? I mean he get off light, come to think.
Of rationalising it, once.
It's only a difference, but why go and ruin it?
I mean good manners don't cost nothing, do they, eh?)

Down and out
It can't be helped, but there's a lot of it about
With, without
And who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about

Out of the way, it's a busy day
I've got things on my mind
For want of the price of tea and a slice
The old man died

- Alright, boys, this is it, over the hill!

We don't care what flag you're waving,
We don't even wanna know your name.
We don't care where you're from or where you're going,
All we know it's that you came.
Your making all our decisions,
We have just one request of you,
That while you're thinking things over,
Here's something you just better do.

Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now. (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now.

Well, we were caught with our hands in the air,
Don't despair, paranoia's ev'rywhere.
We can shake it with love when we're scared,
So let's shout it aloud like a prayer.

Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now. (Do it, do it, do it, do it)
Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now.

We understand your paranoia,
But we don't wanna play your game.
You think you're cool and know what you are doing,
666 is your name.

So while you jerking off each other,
You better bear this thought in mind;
Your time is up, you better know it,
But maybe you don't read the signs.

Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it (do it) now. (Do it, do it, do it, do it)
Free the people now, (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now.

Well, you were caught with your hands in the kill,
And you still gotta swallow your pill,
As you slip and you slide down the hill
On the blood of the people you killed.

Stop the killing!

(Free the people now) (do it, do it)

Do! (do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now) (Do it, do it, do it)
Stop the killing! (Free the people now) (do it, do it, do it, do it)
Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now. (Do it, do it, do it, do it)

Stop the killing! (Free the people now) (do it, do it, do it, do it)
(Do it, do it, do it, do it, do it now) (Do it, do it, do it, do it)

Stop the killing! (Free the people now) (do it, do it, do it, do it)
(Do it, do it) do it, do it, do it.
Bring on the lucie! (Free the people now) (do it, do it, do it)

A letra:

Spread out now Rosie, doctor come cut loose her mama's reins
You know playin' blind man's bluff is a little baby's game
You pick up Little Dynamite, I'm gonna pick up Little Gun
And together we're gonna go out tonight and make that highway run
You don't have to call me lieutenant, Rosie, and I don't wanna be your son
The only lover I'm ever gonna need's your soft, sweet, little girl's tongue
And Rosie, you're the one

Dynamite's in the belfry, baby, playin' with the bats
Little Gun's downtown in front of Woolworth's tryin' out his attitude on all the cats
Papa's on the corner, waitin' for the bus
Mama, she's home in the window, waitin' up for us
She'll be there in that chair when they wrestle her upstairs, 'cause you know we ain't gonna come
I ain't here on business, baby, I'm only here for fun
And Rosie, you're the one

Rosalita, jump a little higher
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just wanna be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosalita, you're my stone desire

Jack the Rabbit and Weak Knee Willie, don't you know they're gonna be there
Ah, Sloppy Sue and Big Bone Billy, they'll be coming up for air
We're gonna play some pool, skip some school
Act real cool, stay out all night, it's gonna feel alright
So Rosie, come out tonight, little baby, come out tonight
Windows are for cheaters, chimneys for the poor
Oh, Closets are for hangers, winners use the door
So use it, Rosie, that's what it's there for

Rosalita, jump a little higher
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just wanna be your lover, ain't no liar
Rosalita, you're my stone desire, all right

Now, I know your mama, she don't like me, 'cause I play in a rock and roll band
And I know your daddy, he don't dig me, but he never did understand
Your papa lowered the boom, he locked you in your room-- I'm comin' to lend a hand
I'm comin' to liberate you, confiscate you, I want to be your man
Someday we'll look back on this and it will all seem funny
But now you're sad, your mama's mad
And your papa says he knows that I don't have any money
Oh, Your papa says he knows that I don't have any money
Oh so, your daddy says he knows that I don't have any money
Well, tell him this is his last chance to get his daughter in a fine romance
Because a record company, Rosie, just gave me a big advance

And my tires were slashed and I almost crashed, but the Lord had mercy
And my machine, she's a dud, out stuck in the mud somewhere in the swamps of Jersey
Well, hold on tight, stay up all night, 'cause Rosie, I'm comin' on strong
By the time we meet the morning light, I will hold you in my arms
I know a pretty little place in Southern California, down San Diego way
There's a little cafe, where they play guitars all night and all day
You can hear them in the back room strummin'
So hold tight, baby, 'cause don't you know Daddy's comin'
Ahhhh, Everybody sing

Rosalita, jump a little higher
Senorita, come sit by my fire
I just wanna to be your lover, ain't no liar
Oh Baby, you're my stone desire

Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey
Hey hey hey hey

Money, get away
You get a good job with good pay and you're okay

Money, it's a gas
Grab that cash with both hands and make a stash
New car, caviar, four star daydream
Think I'll buy me a football team

Money, well, get back
I'm all right Jack
Keep your hands off of my stack

Money, it's a hit
Don't give me that do goody good bullshit
I'm in the high-fidelity first class travelling set
I think I need a Lear jet

Money, it's a crime
Share it fairly
But don't take a slice of my pie

Money, so they say
Is the root of all evil today
But if you ask for a raise
It's no surprise that they're giving none away (Away, away, away...)

"HuHuh! I was in the right!"
"Yes, absolutely in the right!"
"I certainly was in the right!"
"You was definitely in the right. That geezer was cruising for a bruising!"
"Yeah!"
"Why does anyone do anything?"
"I don't know, I was really drunk at the time!"
"I was just telling him, he couldn't get into number 2. He was asking why he wasn't coming up on freely, after I was yelling and screaming and telling him why he wasn't coming up on freely. It came as a heavy blow, but we sorted the matter out"

Give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah

I got a Nikon camera
I love to take a photograph
So mama, don't take my Kodachrome away

If you took all the girls I knew when I was single
And brought 'em all together for one night
I know they'd never match my sweet imagination
Everything looks worse in black and white

Kodachrome
They give us those nice bright colors
They give us the greens of summers
Makes you think all the world's a sunny day, oh yeah

I got a Nikon camera

So mama, don't take my Kodachrome away

Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away
Mama, don't take my Kodachrome away

Then I'll blaze your fire
Then I satisfy your heart's desire
Said, I stir it every (stir it, stir it, stir it together), every minute
All you've got to do, baby (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Is keep it in it, and

Stir it up (come on)
Little darlin', stir it up
Come on and stir it up (oh-oh)
Little darlin', stir it up (oh, mmm)

I know... Quench me when I'm thirsty
Come on, cool me down, baby (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
When I'm hot (stir it, stir it, stir it together)
Your recipe, darlin', is so tasty
And you sure can stir your pot, so

Stir it up (oh)
Little darlin', stir it up (come on girl)
Come on and stir it up (oh, I)
Little darlin', stir it up (stir it)

Oh, little darlin', stir it up (come on, baby)
Come on and stir it up (oh, I)
Little darlin', stir it up (stir it, baby, stir it)
Come on, come on and stir it up (oh)
Little darlin', stir it up (stir it, stir it, stir it, stir it)
