This song describes the actions of a survivor of World War Two, as part of the Anti-War concept.
It also introduces a musical motif (the melody that Waters sings) that would come back towards the end of the album, once again sung by Waters on “Not Now John”.
The “Few” in the title and in the lyric...
When you're one of the few to land on your feet
What do you do to make ends meet? (Teach)
Make 'em mad, make 'em sad, make 'em add two and two
Or make 'em me, or make 'em you, make 'em do what you want them to
Make 'em laugh, make 'em cry, make 'em lay down and die
One of the Few was written by Roger Waters.
One of the Few was produced by Michael Kamen & James Guthrie & Roger Waters.
Pink Floyd released One of the Few on Mon Mar 21 1983.
