The other day I saw a headline that read: "Waiting for the End of the World." The article itself was about the fascination people have with disaster films, particularly flicks with the theme of world-ending disasters. Anyway, upon reading the headline this Pink Floyd song: Waiting for the Worms immediately popped into my mind.
This was one of the darker songs from The Wall in which the main character, Pink, is hallucinating about being a fascist leader spreading his nefarious message.
I love how this song was arranged; the dynamics are excellent; Progressive Rock at its best!

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
