The composition is instrumental except for the only spoken (or sung) line from drummer Nick Mason, “One of these days I’m going to cut you into little pieces.“ It features double-tracked bass guitars played by David Gilmour and Roger Waters,[3] with each bass hard panned into one channel of stereo, but one bass sound is quite muted and dull. According to Gilmour, this is because that particular instrument had old strings on it, and the roadie they had sent to get new strings for it wandered off to see his girlfriend instead.
