Thom Yorke - Radiohead

It barks at no-one else but me,
like it’s seen a ghost.
I guess it’s seen the sparks a-glowin,
no-one else would know.
Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.
Sometimes I get overcharged,
that’s when you see sparks.
They ask me where the hell I’m going?
At a 1000 feet per second,
hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, […]

Im on a roll,
Im on a roll this time
I feel my luck could change.
Kill me sarah,
Kill me again with love,
Its gonna be a glorious day.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
Im your superhero,
We are standing on the edge.
The head of state has called for me by name
But I dont have time […]

A heart that’s full up like a landfill,
a job that slowly kills you,
bruises that won’t heal.
You look so tired-unhappy,
bring down the government,
they don’t, they don’t speak for us.
I’ll take a quiet life,
a handshake of carbon monoxide,
with no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
no alarms and no surprises,
Silent silent.
This is […]

I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You’ll only see my reflection
It’s always best when the covers up
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we’re friends till we die
And either way you turn
I’ll […]

I will stop, I will stop at nothing.
Say the right things when electioneering
I trust I can rely on your vote.
When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
When I go forwards you go backwards
and somewhere we will meet.
Ha ha ha
Riot shields, voodoo economics,
it’s just business, cattle prods and the I.M.F.
I trust I can […]

Fitter, happier, more productive,
comfortable,
not drinking too much,
regular exercise at the gym
(3 days a week),
getting on better with your associate employee contemporaries ,
at ease,
eating well
(no more microwave dinners and saturated fats),
a patient better driver,
a safer car
(baby smiling in back seat),
sleeping well
(no bad dreams),
no paranoia,
careful to all animals
(never washing spiders down the plughole),
keep in contact with old […]

Karma police, arrest this man
He talks in maths
He buzzes like a fridge
He’s like a detuned radio
Karma police, arrest this girl
Her Hitler hairdo is
Making me feel ill
And we have crashed her party
This is what you get
This is what you get
This is what you get when you mess with us
Karma Police
I’ve given all I can
It’s not […]

Transport, motorways and tramlines
Starting and then stopping
Taking off and landing
The emptiest of feelings
Disappointed people clinging on to bottles
And when it comes it’s so so disappointing
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around
Shell smashed, juices flowing
Wings twitch, legs are going
Don’t get sentimental
It always ends up drivel
One day I’m going […]

Wake… from your sleep
The drying of your tears
Today.. we escape
We escape.
Pack and get dressed
Before your father hears us
Before.. all hell.. breaks loose.
Breathe… keep breathing
Don’t lose.. your nerve.
Breathe… keep breathing
I can’t do this.. alone.
Sing us a song
A song to keep us warm
There’s such a chill
Such a CHILL.
You can laugh
A spineless laugh
We hope your rules and wisdom […]

The breath of the morning
I keep forgetting
The smell of the warm summer air
I live in a town
Where you can’t smell a thing
You watch your feet
For cracks in the pavement
Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home
Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets
They’re all uptight
Uptight.. (x7)
I […]
