The Wall tells the story of Pink, an embittered and alienated rock star. As told through the song Mother, part of Pinks sense of alienation comes from being raised by an overprotective single mother, who lost her husband, Pinks father, in World War II. The song narrates a conversation by Pink (voiced by Waters) and his mother (voiced by Gilmour). The listener learns of the overprotectiveness of Pinks mother, who is helping Pink build his wall to try protect him from the outside world, evidenced by the line Of course Mommas gonna help build the wall, spoken by Pinks mother. She insists that Pink stay by her side even after he grows up, and cannot stand it when Pink eventually grows older and falls in love. O:) JES O:)
