The first part is sone of the most delicate sounding,soft Radiohead I've heard. Then the second is the perhaps the most passionate, explosive Radiohead I've heard.
The instruments, and thom's bursting voice in this one only make the lyrics stronger. The song generally goes along with the overarching OK Computer themes; isolation from and dissatisfaction with society, or society as we see it. I'm not sure I'd analyze the lyrics too in depth on this one, they really seem to be jumbled but impassioned, much like the song itself.
Nevertheless, in the last stanza especially, there seems to be a bit of a lament towards the aesthetic, mass-produced, and generic goods that seem to match society itself (especially Plastic bag, middle class, polyethylene /Decaffeinate, unleaded, keep all surfaces clean").
What an overwhelmingly ethereal song.
