A Rat's Nest Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Hungryforalynchin 

Cover art for A Rat's Nest lyrics by Thom Yorke

The stench of progress like moldy cheese, modern life is rubbish & the end is nigh.

Over populating & polution of terra firma, frolicking in filth, women & children first. Everywhere consumption & endless gnawing pointless hunger, with glowing red eyes that watch from a distance. Glowing

Stitches Stitches

No way home, no path back, Nothing left to do but sharpen yellow teeth & consult reams of contradictory protocol on best solution to mend broken wires that snap crackle & pop like singed chicken bones, the high cheetering that makes sing-song around our funeral pyre (Children make the best meal). Always.

(eyes, red eyes in the dark)

rustling, pulsating piles of indistinguishable vermin

S titches
