"Every Silver Lining Has A Cloud" was written by Philip Pope and featured in Episode 5 of Series 4. The song parodies the feel-good songs of the time, and is sung by the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse; Plague, War, Famine and Death; who are dressed as a Barbershop Quartet. It comments largely upon the fact that the darker aspects of life are never too far away, regardless of how one attempts to cover them up. It is one of Spitting Image's more depressing songs.
