    Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere
    And build them a home, a little place of their own
    The Fletcher Memorial
    Home for Incurable
    Tyrants and Kings

    And they can appear to themselves everyday
    On closed circuit TV
    To make sure they’re still real
    It’s the only connection they feel

    – Roger Waters, The Fletcher Memorial Home

    Even in the early 1980s, some of us bleeding hearts and artists saw and knew.
