Tab Discussion, Comments, and Critiques


No Picture DIPSY Lead Player	#1 by DIPSY (NOT THE TELETUBBIE) at Jan 14, 2006 at 4:25 PM EST
	Does anybody think this song could relate to dogs from animals?? if thats the case then the whoel animal album could be referring to WWII (look at my post on sheep)

No Picture chris Professional	#2 by chris vlasic at Mar 7, 2006 at 7:05 PM EST
	This is about crafty people. the first paragraph is about survival and natural instincts, the bare bones to being an alpha male or a wolf in the fold. the second paragraph is the advanced techniques of the dog(or wolf), who is now cunning and suble, deceptive and sneaky. the third paragraph describes the self destruction this life leads to, as it decives you into thinking you've come out on top (packing up and moving down south to the sand) but you're only weak and feeble (hiding your head in the sand, dying of cancer). the fourth paragraph extrapolates on the self destruction you experience when you get what's coming to you for the way you've manipulated and lied. the next two paragraphs are told from the perspective of the dog who realizes what he's doing, but knows no better and presses forward to try to escape his guilt. then a self biography Who was born in a house full of pain, (he grew up in a place that was abusive and life seemd to enroach upon him) who was trained not to spit in the fan, (not sure about this one, but seems like he was taught that things that might seem fun are wrong) who was told what to do by the man, (typical additude "stick it to the man" - repressed by authority) who was broken by trained personnel, (entered the military and underwent "thought control", stripping away his humanity) Who was fotted with collar and chain, (mental conditioning, dog tags and given the drive and purpose of a dog) who was given a seat in the stand, (noted for his achivements) who was breaking away from the pack, (top of the class, distinguished) who was only a stranger at home, (yet could not deal with his family and "real" people) who was ground down in the end, (and he experiances the self destruction) who was found dead on the phone, (sort of like dying at your desk i guess) who was dragged down by the stone (Mark 9:42 "And whoever causes one of these little ones who believe to stumble, it would be better for him if, with a heavy millstone hung around his neck, he had been cast into the sea")

	The vocals are horrible for this song, but the music is pretty good, and the lyrics are almost typical Floyd, though they lack the discipline of Roger Waters.

No Picture peter Wanna Be	#4 by peter boony at Sep 30, 2006 at 10:17 PM EST
	Okay, opinions aside, you people are really of track. I dont mean to offend anyone, but what David is writing about is the governments use of Mercenary forces in foriegn wars. The Gulf? Anybody remember that? Mercenaries are referred to as "Dogs of War". This is a cultural lexicon from the world around. "no cause we dont discriminate" "discovery is to be disowned" "for hard cash we will lie and decieve" all things that can be easily said about Mercenaries. As well as the fact that War is their business, and as long as there is war, there will be mercenarys "...but whatever you change you know the dogs remain" simple meaning, pretty good song

No Picture Travis Average	#5 by Travis Nichols at Dec 7, 2006 at 6:25 PM EST
	The 1st time I heard this song was on a Walkman, at night walking down the street when I was 13 years old. SHIT myself when I heard that growling in my left ear. Excellent sax solo, even if the song is a bit crap. Nevermind, gotta luvvem.

No Picture /. Wanna Be	#6 by /. com at Dec 31, 2006 at 7:38 PM EST
	Do you really think the vocals are horrible? I really like them. I must be the opposite of you.

No Picture tim Rhythm Player	#7 by tim cronin at Mar 6, 2007 at 4:44 AM EST
	I love this song. It's the most badass song ever made. How can you listen to this and not get pumped up for some kinda sporting event or something? It's harsh

No Picture Gritch Wanna Be	#8 by Gritch wefwe at Apr 6, 2007 at 1:29 AM EST
	in times of great peril and destruction, the best or darkside within all of us, is unleashed

No Picture Syco Shawn (Jug Wanna Be	#9 by Syco Shawn (Juggalo) at Jun 5, 2007 at 9:53 AM EST
	Yeah, I think they're horrible. They are really grinding on my poor, delicate, fragile ears.

No Picture rockeronbass Average	#10 by rockeronbass at Jul 10, 2007 at 5:01 PM EST
	i REALLY like this song. I dont find it that dark...

No Picture stephen Wanna Be	#11 by stephen k at Aug 13, 2007 at 1:23 AM EST
	Or maybe he's saying that humans are the dogs of war.

No Picture Andy Average	#12 by Andy Quinton at Sep 19, 2007 at 6:29 AM EST
	i thought about that too, but i think he spit on the fan while they were on the Animals tour. but i might be mistaken.
