Faust Arp - Radiohead

Album: In Rainbows

genre: Experimental Rock

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 now
What you ought to what you ought to
Reasonable and sensible

Dead from the neck up
I guess I’m stuffed, stuffed, stuffed
We thought you had it in you
But no no no
For no real reason

Squeeze the tubes and empty bottles
And take a bow take a bow take a bow
It’s what you feel now
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 and
Duplicate and triplicate

Dead from the neck up
I guess I’m stuck stuck stuck
We thought you had it in you
But no no no
Exactly where do you get off
Is enough 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’re gonna melt in to butter

In Rainbows Wavves album lyrics
Yorke denied any connections with Goethe's Faust, "But yes, hmm, Goethe's Faust. I'm going to have to look that one up, actually, 'cause that sounds suitably pretentious. We live in Oxford, after all."

Yorke: "Neil Young claims he writes lyrics and doesn't go back to them. If he does, he says, the worse they become. But that's scary. I mean, 'Faust Arp' is the exact opposite of that, pages and pages and pages and pages and pages and pages until eventually, the good ones stick."
