Lyrics

Thom Yorke — The Mother Lode

Another clown jumps off the lever

A shallow pool but it doesn't matter

The way it goes, the way it goes

It's falling through barriers and hedgerows

Hollow man hollow men proper

Where's the applause when you need them?

But these brought by summer songs and backflips

By Hallowe'en things should be different
