I'm learning the old PF song "Wot's... uh the Deal" from Obscured by Clouds. The lyrics are:
Flash the readies, wot's the deal Got to make it to the next meal
Just wondering what that might mean.

Flash the readies means basically 'show me the money'.

What does it mean ?
Even at that relatively early stage of their career, Pink Floyd were openly admitting they were a bunch of bread heads mainly only in it for the money.
