You'll go to Hell For what your Dirty mind is thinking.
Thom Yorke
I jumped in the river, what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the figures I used to see 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.
Thom Yorke

Thom Yorke
As a boy I was a hermit crab, but I soon came out of my shell. Now I am a pincer crab, and soon I will be at my full power as a deadly nuclear lobster.
Thom Yorke
If the media spotlight affects my work or represses what I want to say in the future, then it is bad.
Thom Yorke
you have not been / paying attention
Thom Yorke
Whenever I meet a beauty, I escape or hide in the corner.
Thom Yorke
The only real difference between me and chocolate pudding is that I am not a black man.
Thom Yorke
I cannot read a fortune cookie without breaking down and crying. I am sensitive.
Thom Yorke
Every move you make has already been done, and taken the piss out of.
Thom Yorke
I can't wait to die so I can be a skeleton and play my chest like a xylophone.
Thom Yorke
I think maybe since there isn't a great deal of access to the mainstream media and people don't understand the language of mainstream media, if you put music out there with lyrics that are loosely political, people absorb some of it and spit it back out.
Thom Yorke
