More quotes by Thom Yorke
I once got hit with a taser at a concert and everyone thought I was dancing. Now I have to do that dance, at every show for the rest of my life, or admit that a taser can damage the Thom Yorke
Thom Yorke
Performing is great, but you are exposed to all this extra stuff that you don't have to deal with when you stop. I'm getting used to it now, but it's kind of just the fallout. It's really weird.

Thom Yorke
I've been working hard on a new song, it's titled Frozen Piggy Pudding. It's about how the government is full of pigs who eat pudding all day. Oh look a frisbee, allo' govna.

Thom Yorke
Sometimes we and the members of Coldplay have an orgy together, (Martin) insists we don't invite any women, but I always invite a few. Usually I sing Fake Plastic Trees while he reams me from behind *Laughs* It wears me out *laughs*.
Thom Yorke
I grew up under Thatcher. I grew up believing that I was fundamentally powerless. Then gradually over the years it occurred to me that this was actually a very convenient myth for the state.
Thom Yorke
Why did the chicken cross the road? Because he's a goddamn chicken he doesn't know what the **** he's doing
Thom Yorke
Rock music is, is a necessary evil, like beating my children with penny loafers
Thom Yorke
The problem is, I cannot meditate. That's the one thing I can't do. That's the thing that's driving me nuts. I have a house by the sea, and I can sit and listen to the sound of the sea and eventually... but I can't really do it.
Thom Yorke
I agree with whoever said Spice Girls are soft port. They're the antichrist.
Thom Yorke
If I could do just one thing to change the world, I'd make everyone Thom Yorke, and this would be paradise.
Thom Yorke
Imagine? Yeah I can imagine John Lennon being dead.
Thom Yorke
Amnesiac was written to make fun of senior citizens with alzheimers. I hate them and I wish they'd die.
Thom Yorke
I'm the next act Waiting in the wings I'm an animal Trapped in your hot car I am all of the days That you choose to ignore You are all I need You are all I need I'm in the middle of your picture Lying in the reeds.
