In this hauntingly poetic track, Radiohead delves into themes of existential confusion and societal disillusionment. The lyrics juxtapose mundane routines with profound emotional emptiness, symbolized by phrases like "dead from the neck up" and "stuffed." The repetition of actions—"on again, off again," "take a bow"—highlights a sense of mechanical living devoid of genuine feeling. The imagery of "fingers in the blackbird pie" and an "elephant in the room" suggests hidden truths and ignored issues. Ultimately, the song critiques the disconnect between what one feels and what societal norms dictate they should feel, urging listeners to confront their own internal struggles. #ExistentialCrisis #SocietalDisillusionment

Lyrics
One, two, three, four
Wakey wakey, rise and shine
It's on again, off again, on again
Watch me fall like dominoes
In pretty patterns
Fingers in the blackbird pie
I'm tingling, tingling, tingling
It's what you feel not what you ought to
What you ought to
Reasonable and sensible
Dead from the neck up
Because I'm stuffed, stuffed, stuffed
We thought you had it in you
But not, not, not
For no real reason
Squeeze the tubes and empty bottles
Take a bow, take a bow, take a bow
It's what you feel not what you ought to
What you ought to
An elephant that's in the room is
Tumbling, tumbling, tumbling
In duplicate and triplicate and
Plastic bags
In duplicate and triplicate
Dead from the neck up
I guess I'm stuffed, stuffed, stuffed
We thought you had it in you
But not, not, not
Exactly where do you get off
Is enough, is enough?
I love you but enough is enough
Enough of that stuff
There's no real reason
You've got a head full of feathers
You got melted to butter
