It's called Sheep, it's from a Floyd album Animals (1977). Roger Waters wrote it (well-grabbed all the credits).

Don't think so. I don't think Gilmour would allow Waters to 'steal' his credits.
And I think mason and wright are even overcredited as being 'producers' on animals :)

I do think so....specifically the chord sequence that ends it....as for credits maybe Dave got tired of arguing...I have no answer for that...but he DID come up with that ending.

Both Sheep and Dogs were co-written by Waters/Gilmour in 1974 when they were known as Raving and Drooling and Gotta be Crazy respectively (the songs, not Waters and Gilmour :lol: )

I think that the ending is written by Dave too.

And the intro? Come on! Would Dave or Roger do this? Detect Rick Wright's hand in this. He should be given credit too.

"Dave got tired of arguing" says it pretty well I think

A lot of Pink Floyd songs that are credited soley to Roger have Daves mark on them, IMO. (and Rick to some degree)
