Climbing up the walls
Colin Greenwood / Ed O'Brien / Jonny Greenwood / Phil Selway / Thom Yorke
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement,
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection.
It's always best with the covers up
I am the pick in the ice,
Do not cry out or hit the alarm,
You know we're friends till we die.
And either way you turn I'll be there,
Open up your skull, I'll be there
Climbing up the walls.
It's always best when the light is off,
it's always better on the outside,
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to the skull.
So lock the kids up safe tonight,
And shut the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smile of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling.
That either way you turn, I'll be there
Open up your skull and I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls.
