Did it all for you to say
You never wanted me that way
Now the dogs have had their meat
I think I'll go plug in the mains
I tumble like a clown
Before your baying hounds
I supplicate myself into your hands
When you spare a make up smile
I'm instantly your biggest fan
How was I to know
That you practiced it beforehand?
I tumble like a clown
Before your baying hounds
I supplicate myself into your hands
You never wanted me that way
Now the dogs have had their meat
I think I'll go plug in the mains
I tumble like a clown
Before your baying hounds
I supplicate myself into your hands
When you spare a make up smile
I'm instantly your biggest fan
How was I to know
That you practiced it beforehand?
I tumble like a clown
Before your baying hounds
I supplicate myself into your hands

definitely one of my favourite radiohead b-sides.
--johnny DOES laugh oddly, but that's what's so fantastic of course.

great lyrics (of course)
reminds me of a guy who does everything to get the girl of his dreams to like him, but it doesn't work, and the girl is totally playing him on.
"I tumble like a clown" is sung so beautifully.
one of my new favorites
