Yet another one that's been in a lot of live shows. This one is also over a year old and was introduced on Radiohead's
first ever webcast in 1999. Featuring guitars reminiscent of Street Spirit, Thom has said
this track is about cannibalism. Lyrics such as "Don't look down, shove it in your mouth" would seem to confirm this.
But with Radiohead you just never can tell... |
I want you to know He's not coming back Look into my eyes I'm not coming back So knives out, catch the mouse Don't look down, shove it in your mouth If you'd been a dog They would have drowned you at birth Look into my eyes It's the only way you'll know if I'm telling the truth So knives out, cook him up Squash his head, put him in the pot I want you to know He's not coming back (he's not coming back) He's bloated and frozen Still there's no point in letting it go to waste So knives out, catch the mouse Squash his head, put him in the pot |
