Did You Know?

Interesting facts and trivia about Careful with That Axe, Eugene. By Songfacts®.

This was released as the B-side of the single, "Point Me At The Sky." The title is a reference to the first line of that song: "Hey, Eugene, this is Henry McClean."

A shorter version of this song appeared on the Relics compilation in 1971.

There are minimal vocals in this song: just the title whispered, followed by a maniacal scream by Roger Waters. Pink Floyd used this scream again at the beginning of "Another Brick In The Wall (part II)" and throughout "Run Like Hell."
