"Pigs (Three Different Ones)" is a song from Pink Floyd's 1977 album Animals. In the album's three parts, "Dogs", "Pigs" and "Sheep", pigs represent the people whom the band considers to be at the top of the social ladder, the ones with wealth and power; they also manipulate the rest of society and encourage them to be viciously competitive and cut-throat, so the pigs can remain powerful.
Pigs appeared numerous times in concerts by the band, promoting concerts and record releases, and on the cover of their 1977 album Animals. The image rights for the pigs passed to Roger Waters when he split from the rest of the group, [1] though the pigs continued to be used by both Pink Floyd and Roger Waters in their gigs after his departure.
"Pigs on the Wing" is a two-part song by English rock band Pink Floyd from their 1977 concept album Animals, opening and closing the album. [1] According to various interviews, it was written by Roger Waters as a declaration of love to his new wife Carolyne Christie .
Pink Floyd were a target for punk musicians, notably Johnny Rotten of the Sex Pistols, who wore a Pink Floyd T-shirt on which the words "I hate" had been written in ink. Rotten since said this was a joke; he was a fan of several progressive rock bands, including Magma and Van Der Graaf Generator .

The three new songs were "You've Got to Be Crazy" (which later became "Dogs"), "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" and "Raving and Drooling" (which later became "Sheep").
