Lyrics - Paroles de chansons

Kid A, Kid A
Kid A, Kid A
Everything, everything, everything, everything
In its right place (x 4)

Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon (x 4)

Everything, everything, everything
In its right place (x 3)
Right place

There are two colours in my head (x 2)
What, what is that you tried to say ?
What, what was that you tried to say ?
Tried to say, tried to say (x 2)
Everything, everything, everything, everything

I slipped away
I slipped on a little white lie

We got heads on sticks
You got ventriloquists
We got heads on sticks
You got ventriloquists

Standing in the shadows at the end of my bed (x 4)

Rats and children follow me out of town (x 2)
Come on kids

Everyone
Everyone around here
Everyone is so near
What's going on ? (x 2)

Everyone
Everyone is so near
Everyone has got the fear
What's going on ? (x 2)

What's going on ? (x 3)

That's there, that's not me
I go where I please
I walk through walls
I float down the Liffey

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

In a little while
I'll be gone
The moment's already passed
Yeah, it's gone

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

Strobe lights and blown speakers
Fireworks and hurricanes

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

instrumental

Flies are buzzing around my head
Vultures circling the dead
Picking up every last crumb
The big fish eat the little ones
The big fish eat the little ones
Not my problem give me some

chorus : (x 2)
You can try the best you can
If you try the best you can
The best you can is good enough

This one's optimistic
This one went to market
This one just came out of the swamp
This one dropped a payload
Fodder for the animals
Living on an animal farm

chorus (x 2)

I'd really like to help you man (x 2)
Nervous messed up marionette
Floating around on a prison ship

If you try the best you can
If you try the best you can
The best you can is good enough
You can try the best you can
You can try the best you can
Dinosaurs roaming the earth (x 3)

I'm the first in the Irish Sea
Another message I can't read

I'm on your side
Nowhere to hide
Trapdoors that open
I spiral down

You're living in a fantasy world (x 2)

I'm lost at sea
Don't bother me
I've lost my way (x 2)

You're living in a fantasy world (x 3)
This beautiful world I'm the first in the Irish Sea
Another message I can't read

Who's in bunker ? (x 2)
Women and children first (x 2)
Women and children
I'll laugh until my head comes off
I swallow 'til I burst
Until I burst
Until I burst

Losing bunker (x 2)
I've seen too much
I haven't seen enough
You haven't seen enough
I'll laugh until my head comes off
Women and children first
And children first
And children

Here alone, everything all of the time (x 2)

Ice age coming (x 2)
Let me hear both sides (x 2)
Let me hear both

Ice age coming (x 2)
Throw me in the fire (x 2)
Throw me in the

We're not scaremongering
This is really happening, happening
We're not scaremongering
This is really happening, happening

Mobiles working
Mobiles chirping
Take the money and run (x 2)
Take the money

Here alone, everything all of the time (x 4)

The first of the children...

Morning bell (x 2)
Not another encounter
Release me (x 2)

You can keep the furniture
A bump on the head
Howling down the chimney
Release me (x 2)
Please
Release me (x 2)

Where'd you park the car ? (x 2)
Clothes are all with the furniture
Now I might as well
I might as well
Sleepy jack the fire drill
Run around around around around around around around

Cut the kids in half (x 3)

The lights are on but nobody's home
Everybody wants to be a
The lights are on but nobody's home
Nobody wants to be a slave
Walking walking walking walking...

The lights are on but nobody's home
Everybody wants to be a
Everyone wants to be a friend
Nobody wants to be a slave
Walking walking walking walking...

Red wine and sleeping pills
Help me get back to your arms
Cheap sex and sad films
Help me get where I belong

I think you're crazy, maybe (x 2)

Stop sending letters
Letters always get burned
It's not like the movies
They fed us on little white lies

I think you're crazy, maybe (x 2)

I will see you in the next life

an early version had a second verse :
Beautiful angel
Pulled apart at birth
Limbless and helpless
I can't even recognize you

I think you're crazy, maybe (x6)

I will see you in the next life
