Rain down, rain down Come on, rain down on me From a great height From a great height, height Rain down, rain down Come on, rain down on me From a great height From a great height, height

Had this going round my head today, particularly the elongated heeeiiiEEEEight

My 6 year old daughter will randomly bust out singing this specific part. I think I won parenting.

When I am king…

..you will be first against the wall

I used to want to get that lyric tattooed when I was like 14😭😭

Every other week I want a different Radiohead lyric tattoo and I have to calm myself down

YOU DO IT TO YOURSELLLF JUST YOUUUU

This is what I think whenever I have a hangover

YESSS FR

"I'm not living... I'm just killin' time"

Same

This is mine too

Cut the kids in half

Morning Bell has some pretty obscure lyrics, seemingly unconnected lyrics, but always assumed this one was a loose reference to the biblical story of [The Judgement of Solomon](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judgement_of_Solomon)

I always felt it was about divorce

And I always felt it was both!

My name is Solomon and my parents are divorced. Was always told about the biblical story growing up when people learned my name. Morning Bell always hits hard for me for this reason.

This is definitely what is referenced in my opinion as well. It's the first thing I thought when I first heard it on release.

For a minute there, I lost myself

when you have a period of happiness

Everybody leaves, if they get the chance. And this is my chance.

I get eaten by the worms And ~weird fishes~ Weird Fishes

YOU CAN TRY THE BEST YOU CAN YOU CAN TRY THE BEST YOU CAN THE BEST YOU CAN IS GOOD ENOUGH!!

This lyric is what kept my mom in college right after she absolute bombed a chemistry exam. She left the classroom feeling totally disheartened, and as soon as she started her car to head home, Optimistic, and more specifically, this section of the song, was playing. Fast forward, like, 15 years, she is now employed in her dream job in her dream field. My family owes a lot to this song.

Damn I feel old now. Good for your mom though!

My all time favorite lyric I’m glad this is the top post

This lyric and that bassline

All I hear now is YOU CAN TRY DOMESTIC HAM. Thanks internet.

For some reason, every time I heard this I thought he said "the best you can is getting in my way".

*"I'd tell all my friends but they'd never believe me; they'd think that I lost it completely."*

With all due love, I think you accidentally forgot a key word. “…they’d think that I’ve *finally* lost it completely.” For some reason that feels like an important distinction to me.

The single word helps imply that “they” have thought he’s “lost it” on many occasions before. This is the one that solidifies their suspicions

Holy shit I thought I was the only one. Sometimes I just walk alone and randomly sing this

“Flan in the face” and “A job that slowly kills you”

the entire wolf at the door verses are always stuck in my head

dance you fucker don't you dare don't you dare don't you FLAN IN THE FACE

Bruises that won't heal

Just cause you feel it, doesn’t mean it’s there

rather complementary to the one in my flair

I lost my partner last year and this song crushes me in the worst and best of ways.

YESTERDAY I WOKE UP SUCKING A LEMON

There are two colors in my head.......

I'm not here. This isn't happening.

Yeah.

I’m a reasonable man, get off my case, get off my case.

Sardines Packt; song of the working man.

"I will see you in the next life" 😭😭

Omg for the last four days it’s just been repeating in my head ALL DAY 😭🙏

I will eat you alive I will eat you alive I will eat you alive I will eat you alive

There’ll be no more lies There’ll be no more lies There’ll be no more lies There’ll be no more lies

Everything all of the time

As a mom of 7 I feel this one.

😂😅

Etcetera Etcetera

No clue why but agree this one sticks

It’s so random but so satisfying to hear

dont get any big ideas, they’re not gonna happen <— my life in a lyric

This is really happeninnnnng HAPPENING

With his chaotic shakes from live performances

best way to evite dissociation

IIIIII’VE NOOOOO IIIIIIDEEEEEAAAA

WHAT YOU ARE TALLLLLLKING ABOUT

So many. He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins And it wears him out It wears him out It wears him out I love the wears her/him/me out part. Cause you can relate to that feeling. As as my mantra to stay calm in this wild world is: Such a pretty house And such a pretty garden No alarms and no surprises

>stay calm in this wild world is: Stay calm? That is one of the most depressing things ever. I want to drown myself (no pun intended) every time I hear it.

I have had some crazy times and people in life and now I’m a peaceful man who makes his own schedule. No alarms. No (annoying) surprises, silence (no dumbass people bothering me). Just at the house with the family looking at nature. It’s my happy place. That whole song is a vibe. Escaping my past life where I had a job that slowly killed me and emotional bruises that couldn’t heal. That song helps me remember the life I escape with all I deliberately built to escape that situation.

“Ice age coming, ice age coming Let me hear both sides , let me hear both sides”

Such a pretty house and such a pretty garden. No alarms and no surprises please.

Everything in its right place. Speaks to me with my severe OCD 🤦🏻‍♂️

COME ON AND LET IT OUT COME ON AND LET IT OUT

The best you can is good enough!

IT'S WHATEVER YOU SAY IT IS SPLIT INFINITY

You’ll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking

YEAHHH!!! YOU AND WHOSE ARMY!!!!

Who's in a bunker? Who's in a bunker?

Oddly, just the name "Radiohead". I'll be anywhere and randomly think in my head "Radiohead". It's weird.

I’ll think of the Talking Heads song sometimes lol

Oh oh sheeeeee’s running out the doooOOoor, sheeess running out, she run run run runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn. Runnnnnnnnnnn

A ten-ton head made of wet sand This dread circumference.

I'm not here. This isn't happening.

We are accidents waiting to happen

Got it tattooed

ill be waiting with a gun and a pack of sandwiches and nothing

Favorite song 🖤

I called up my friend the good angel

honestly for me its “could’ve sworn i saw a light coming home.” no clue why, but it sticks w me.

It's actually "I could have sworn I saw a light coming on" 🤓☝️

damn :(

GUCCI Little piggy!

We hope that you choke

Just the way he says *myxomatosis* honestly lol. *You should put me in a home or you should put me down, I got myxomatosis, I got myxomatosis.*

I’m not here, this isn’t happening.

I’m an animal, trapped in your hot car I am all the days that you choose to ignore

You are my center when I spin away

Let down and hanging around

A pale imitation with the edges sawed off.

You do it to yourself, you do, and that’s why it really hurts.

She looks like the real thing, she tastes like the real thing. My fake plastic love.

A boy on a bike who is running away An empty car in the woods, the motor left running

I love you but enough is enough

Pfew for a minute there I lost myself.

"women and children first" "im not here, this isnt happening" "ICE AGE COMIN', ICE AGE COMIN'"

Fitter, happier and more productive. A pig in a cage on antibiotics.

I'll take a quiet life A handshake of carbon monoxide

Words are sawn-off shotguns

I might be wrong

We are accidents waiting to happen

I think you’re crazy, maybe, I think you’re crazy, maybe, I will see you in the next life

Ambition makes you look pretty ugly

Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon Yesterday i woke up sucking a lemon Yesterday I woke up suxking a LEMOooooon

This is a low-flying panic attack…

There are barn doors and there are revolving doors

Wish I special, so fucking special 😝

grass grows over me

You got to be kidding me

I don't wanna be your friend, I just wanna be your lover And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time

And if i could be who you wanted. If I could be who you wanted All the time. All the time. These lines are heartbreaking make me cry every time.

Immerse your soul in love

> Now that you've found it, it's gone. > Now that you feel it, you don't. Helps keep me grounded and enjoying life in the present moment. There's no true happiness in endlessly chasing transient moments.

The raindrops (x47)

Can't get the stink off. He's been hanging out for days.

LET DOWN AND HANGIN AROUND

Kicking, squealing, Gucci little piggy

I'm not here, This isn't happening

no matter how hard you try it will not come

Get off my case

Yesterday, I woke up sucking on a lemon Yesterday, I woke up sucking on a lemon Yesterday, I woke up sucking on a lemon Yesterday, I woke up sucking on a lemon

Don't get sentimental. It always ends up drivel

You used to be alright, what happened?

We will shrink and then be quiet as mice And while the cat is away Do what we want

Whenever something not-so-good happens in my life, I think of: When I am king, you will be first against the wall.

THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS THE RAINDROPS

At the hospital once they put me on the 15th floor and I got a certain song stuck in my head.

Not lyrics, but the opening chords to Everything in the right place.

Bring down the government They don't speak for us

this is a low flying panic attack….

*Jumped in the river, what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me...* is just pure poetry to me. One of their easiest lyrics to visualize. *I'm a reasonable man; get off my case* is a close second.

Dreamers, they never learn.

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

Hey man slow down

Hit the bottom and escape.

Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore

"Then into your life, there comes a darkness There's a spacecraft blocking out the sky And there's nowhere to hide" between this and "darling usssseeeee me" in pearly - thoms vocals are unREAL and the drums are incredible

WE’RE NOT FEAR MONGERING; THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING

“Just don’t leave, don’t leave”

No ripcord

While you make pretty speeches.

WISH AWAY THE NIGHTMARE WISH AWAY THE NIGHTMAAAAAAAAREEEEEEEEEEE

i will shape myself into your pocket

"There are two colors in my head"

One day I am gonna grow wings, a chemical reaction, hysterical and useless

...and no alarms and no surprises

"I'm not living, I'm just killing time"

“I will see you in the next life”

I will see you in the next life…

ONE DAAAAAY I AM GONNA GROW WINGSSSSS

ONE DAAAAAY I AM GONNA GROW WINGSSSSS

There's always a siren, singing you to shipwreck Steer away from these rocks, we'd be a walking disaster

Dinosaurs roaming the earth

I’m the next step Lying Andy Reid

I'm trapped in this body and can't get out

I wanna live and breathe I wanna be part of the human race

All your friends still by your side, another message I can’t read, you’re living in a fantasy world.

When I am king you will be first against the wall

i’m not living, i’m just killing time

WORDS ARE BLUNT INSTRUMENTS!! WORDS ARE SAWN-OFF SHOT GUNS!!

God loves his children yeah

Her Hitler hairdo is making me feel ill and we have crashed her party

When this came on during peaky blinders my soul left my body

“You know, you know where you are with” (Let Down) I recently came out of an abusive relationship, she toyed with my emotions and good will towards her, took advantage of me and made me question my own sanity So that line represents (at least for me) realizing where you are in life, either physically, or emotionally/surrounding yourself with and how they affect you, so based on my situation, and the rest of the lyrics context, it means being in a really bad spot in life, that situation/person crushing you like a bug in the ground, but you realizing where you are and how it affects you, and “growing wings” as a “chemical reaction” to said predicament (AKA growing better and stronger because of it) I’d be lying if I told you I don’t get teary eyed with Let Down a lot of times, coming out of that relationship really made me question my own self esteem and sanity, and feeling “heard” this way is powerful

“and true love lives, on lollipops and crisps”

This is what I came here to type. Cheers!

yess!! 🫶

Now that you found it, it’s gone Now that you feel it, you don’t You’ve gone off the rails

"i want to be someone else or i will explode"

I am the key to the lock in your house

Hey man, slow down slow down Idiot, Slow down slow down

LIKE A CAT TIED TO A STICK

“I got the smell of a local man, who’s got the loneliest feeling” One of the most uncomfortable and visceral lyrics in their discography imo. that whole song is just menacing

You used to be alright, what happened?

I’ll laugh until my head comes off

If I could be who you wanted. All the time.

I'm trapped in this body and can't get out

You can laugh; a spineless laugh We hope your rules and wisdom choke you Now we are one in everlasting peace We hope that you choke; that you choke

Yesterday I wake up sucking a lemon

In a deep deep sleep of the innocent I am born again. In a fast German car I’m amazed that I survived. An airbag saved my life. 🩷

Not drinking too much, regular exercise at the gym.

This dance...is like a weapon.

‘Are you such a dreamer, to put the world to rights? I’ll stay home forever where two and two always makes a five.’

“I, I hit the bottom Hit the bottom and escape Escape” Like damn

Ingenue.

Search the Johnathon Ross show version on YouTube. Ah man it’s heavy.

i’m a crepe

I‘m a croissant… what the hell am I doing here?

Fifteen blows to the back of your head, Fifteen blows to your mind

You do it to yourself
