Get 'Em Out by Friday
"Get 'Em Out by Friday" is a rock epic on the 1972 album ''Foxtrot'' by British progressive rock band Genesis, lasting eight and a half minutes. It also appears on their 1973 live album. The lyrics were written by lead singer Peter Gabriel.
==Overview==
The song takes the form of a futuristic play set initially in the present but ending in 2012. Like "Harold the Barrel" and "The Fountain of Salmacis" from their previous album ''Nursery Cryme'', the song's lyrics are split between different characters, with lead singer Peter Gabriel often adapting a different vocal style to each character.
The song uses elements of reality and science fiction as a means of social criticism on the corporate greed and oppression of the UK's private landlords in the 1960s and 1970s, epitomised by Peter Rachman who used "winkling" (a mixture of threats and inducements) to remove tenants on low rents from properties and enable their profitable reletting or redevelopment. Social commentary was an evident theme throughout Genesis's early work, especially in their following album, ''Selling England by the Pound''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Composizione e sperimentazione nel rock britannico 1967-1976 )〕
