This opens as a short acoustic number (part 1) before blowing up into an incredible rock song. Recorded at
Radiohead's Bath studios along with the rest of OK Computer, this song very nearly
made it on to the album. The lyrics perpetuate Thom's health fixation, but the actual meaning of the song isn't clear.
There is much debate about the actual words in Part One, and when questioned, Thom just laughed and said he couldn't
actually remember. |
Go Tears of joy now scare ourselves of all that you wanna be Y'just got paid and now you're going how inside you please If I get scared I'll just call you And I'll miss your glow as I unsettle Oh, and I will always feel, I will always be Right, one, two, three, four So sell your suit and tie and come and live with me Leukemia, schizophrenia, polyethylene There is no significant risk to your health She used to be beautiful once as well Plastic bag, middle class, polyethylene Decaffeinate unleaded, keeps all surfaces clean If you don't believe me, sell your soul If you don't get into it, no one will |
