High and Dry (Radiohead cover) Lyrics
Two jumps in a week,
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle,
watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror,
you're turning into something you are not
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Drying up in conversation,
you'll be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces,
you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you
when you think you've got the world all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit on you,
you'll be the one screaming out
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Oh, it's the best thing that you ever had,
the best thing that you ever, ever had.
It's the best thing that you ever had,
the best thing you have had has gone away.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high,
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
I bet you think that's pretty clever don't you boy?
Flying on your motorcycle,
watching all the ground beneath you drop
You'd kill yourself for recognition,
kill yourself to never, ever stop
You broke another mirror,
you're turning into something you are not
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
you'll be the one who cannot talk
All your insides fall to pieces,
you just sit there wishing you could still make love
They're the ones who'll hate you
when you think you've got the world all sussed out
They're the ones who'll spit on you,
you'll be the one screaming out
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
the best thing that you ever, ever had.
It's the best thing that you ever had,
the best thing you have had has gone away.
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry
Don't leave me high,
Don't leave me high, don't leave me dry

this is a radiohead song, i havent heard soco do it, but i love the song and radiohead does it very well.
I have heard Something Corporate do this song, they do a good job at it. I actually didn't know that it was a Radiohead song then though.
Radiohead is better
do they play it live then? i love the Radiohead song, and i think that SoCo could cover it quite successfully, i hope they play it next time...
I love Radiohead, (See the name) and I love Something Corporate but never thaught that one would copy the other. I have to hear this song can I d/l it off the net?
The only place I've heard SC perform this song is during their AOL session (downloaded from kazaa). I think Andrew did a great job (I especially love how he sang "don't leave me high, don't leave me dry"). actually, the whole band covered the song well, but of course since it is a cover the original's better. it's what got me into radiohead
andrew does such a good job singing this cover. if you watch the AOL sessions, you can see the emotion he puts into it, just like he does with all of his songs. if anyone cares or wants to hear this song, fast forward about 12 minutes into the AOL sessions... or just watch the whole thing.
Hey, if you guys want the mp3 of Something Corporate singing it, it's available at http://soco-online.com
yeah watching him sing it i nteh aol sessions is so gd, all his little hand movements and the way he screws his face up when he sings 'high' hehe..it's well worth a watch, and a listen
this is an AWESOME song -yea when u watch it on aol sessions its so cool and soco does a really good job on this song!! loooove themm
