Corporal Clegg

"Corporal Clegg" is a song by the English psychedelic rock band Pink Floyd, and is featured on their second album, ''A Saucerful of Secrets'' (1968). It was written by Roger Waters〔 and features David Gilmour, Nick Mason and Richard Wright on vocals, which is the only Floyd song to do so. The song also features a kazoo.
==Lyrics==
The song is about a shell-shocked soldier who lost his leg in World War II. He is described as having a medal of "orange and red and blue", which may be a reference to the Burma Star. It is the first mention of war in a Pink Floyd song, something that would become a common theme in Roger Waters' lyrics, Roger having lost his father thus in 1944.〔 Waters told ''Mojo'' magazine that this song is autobiographical. He explained: "Corporal Clegg is about my father and his sacrifice in World War II. It's somewhat sarcastic—the idea of the wooden leg being something you won in the war, like a trophy."〔(Corporal Clegg Songfacts )〕 This can be seen as rather lighter in tone than the Pink Floyd's later tackling of the subject, though, despite the irony (Clegg "won" his wooden leg in the war) and darkness behind the lyrics; indeed, among the cacophony of voices towards the end we hear an officer telling his one-legged man: "Clegg! Been meaning to speak to you. About that leg of yours! You're excused parade from now on!" and members of the band actually corpsing in the chorus.
