Another Brick In The Wall - Part II belongs to one of the best known Pink Floyd albums The Wall and is the second of a three-part song all included on the same album.

On the plot of the movie with the same name that features the artist and activist Bob Geldof - representing the character based on Waters himself "Pink", this song appears "After being insulted by the teacher, Pink dreams that the kids in his school begin to protest against their abusive teachers."


"We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teacher! Leave us kids alone!
All in all you're just another brick in the wall
All in all you're just another brick in the wall
"
