Question How many PF/solo songs mention death

I was listening to OBC today and heard acouple of references to death in the songs. I know this comes as no surprise (DSoTM!) but I was wondering if anyone knew how many songs in PF or solo songs mention death?

Re: How many PF/solo songs mention death

Erm, on "Amused to Death" it makes a lot of references to death. Some stuff on "The Wall" and "The Final Cut" is obviously about Roger's dad, so that relates to death. "When the Tigers Broke Free" is all about the battle in which Eric Fletcher Waters was killed.......

Re: How many PF/solo songs mention death

damn, at first glance i thought the title of this thread read, "How many PF songs/solos have been mentioned to death". Which isn't such a bad idea.

as far as your question goes, I don't know, isn't all Roger writes about somehow related to death? You think the guy would just get it over with already.
