Official Amnesiac Lyrics


You would think all of the misspellings and whatnot are of my doing.
Well, they're not.
These are copied exactly from the official Radiohead website, controlled by the band itself, thank you
very much.  All of the misspellings, grammatical errors, etc are
intentional!
Enjoy.




P
ACKT LIKE SARDINES IN A CRUSHD TIN BOX

after years of waiting. nothing came. as your life flashed before your  eyes. you realise. you were looking in the wrong place. i�m a reasonable man. get off my case.


PYRAMID SONG

i jumped into the river.
blackeyedangelsswamwithme.
a moonful of stars and astral cars.
and all the figures i used to see.
all my lovers were there with me.
all my past and futures.
and we all went to heaven in a little row boat.
there was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt.


PULK/PULL REVOLVING DOORS

there are barn doors
and there are revolving doors.
doors in the rudders of big ships.
and there are revolving doors.
there are doors that open by themselves.
there are sliding doors
and there are secret doors.
there are doors that lock
and doors that dont.
there are doors that let you in and out.
but never open.
and there are trapdoors.
that you cant come back from.


YOU AND WHOSE ARMY?

come on.
come on.
you think you�ll drive me crazy?
well come on.
come on.
you and whose army?
you and your cronies?
come on.
come on.
holy roman empire.
come on if you think.
come on if you think.
you can take us on.
you can take us on.
you and whose army?
you and your cronies?
you forget so easy.
we ride tonight.
ghost horses.



I MIGHT BE WRONG

i might be wrong.
i might be wrong.
i could have sworn i saw a light coming home.
i used to think.
i used to think.
there was no future left at all.
i used to think.
open up.
begin again.
lets go down the waterfall.
think about the good time and never look back.
never look back.
what would i do?
what would i do?
if  i did not have you?
open up and let me in.
lets go down the waterfall.
have ourselves a good time its nothing at all.
nothing at all.
nothing at all.


KNIVES OUT

i want you to know.
hes not  coming back.
look into my eyes.
im not coming back.
so knives out.
catch da mouse.
dont look down.
shove it  your mouth.
if youd been a dog, they would have drowned you at birth.
look into my eyes.
its the only way youll know im telling you 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 bloated and frozen.
still theres no point in letting go to waste.
so knives out.
catch da mouse.
squash his head put him in the pot.


MORNING BELL/AMNESIAC

the morning bell.
the morning bell.
light another candle and release me.
you can keep the furniture.
a bump on the head.
howling down the chimney.
release me. release me.
yeah.
where dyou park the car?
where dyou park the car?
your clothes are on the lawn with the furniture.
& i might as well.
i might as well.
sleepy jack. the fire drill.
round and round and round.
cut the kids in half.
cut the kids in half.
cut the kids in half.
release me.


DOLLARS & CENTS

there are better things.
to talk about.
be constructive.
bear witness.
we can use.
be constructive.
with yer blues.
even he turn the water blues.
even you turn the water green.
why dont you quiet down.
all over the neighbors
maybe if i can see out here
all over the clovers
let me out of here.
alloveralloveralloverallover
why dont you quiet down.*
why dont you quiet down.
why dont you quiet down.
why dont you quiet down.
?????????
*we are the DOLLARS &CENTS and the PoUNDS and Pence and the MARK and the YEN.
we are going to crack your little souls.


LIKE SPINNING PLATES

while you make pretty speeches. im being cut to shreds.
you feed me to the lions. a delicate balance.
when this just feels like spinning plates.
im living in cloud cuckoo land.
and this just feels like spinning plates.
our bodies floating down the muddy river.


LIFE IN A GLASSHOUSE

once again im in trouble with my only friend. she is papering the window panes. she is putting on a smile. living in a glasshouse.
once again packd like frozen and battery hens. think of all the  starving millions.
dont talk politics and dont throw stones. your royal highnesses.
well of course id like to sit to around and chat.
well ofcourse id like to stay and chew the fat.
well of course id like to sit around and chat but someones listening in.
once again we are hungry for a lynching. that�s a strange mistake to make. you should turn the other cheek. living in a glasshouse.
well of course id like to sit around and chat.
well of course id like to stay and chew the fat.
well of course id like to sit around and chat only only only.
theres someone listening in.
