I tried hard, worked hard
I ran around in domestic bliss
I fought hard, died hard
Every time you're running I can see
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feels me
I will not control myself
Scarred face, no home
Your words surround me and I asphyxiate
And I burn all hate
Every time you're running I can see
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feels me
I will not control myself
The waters break, the waters run
And this time you're going to pay
I will not control myself
I spit on the hand that feels me
I will not control myself
This song a about a vegetable XD
The correct (official) lyrics are as follows:
I never wanted anything but this I tried hard, worked hard I ran around in domestic bliss I fought hard, died hard Everytime you're running over me Everytime you're running I can see I'm not a vegetable I will not control myself I spit on the hand that feels me I will not control myself I never wanted any broken bones Scarred face, no home Your words surround me and I asphyxiate And I burn all hate Everytime you're running out on me Everytime you're running I can see I'm not a vegetable I will not control myself I spit on the hand that feels me I will not control myself The waters break, the waters run all over me The waters break, the waters run And this time you're gonna pay I'm not a vegetable I will not control myself I spit on the hand that feels me I will not control myself..
Good try, though
Human spirit? Maybe, maybe not. I guess that's what it looks like to me Thom's voice changes after this album- it seems so angry and hateful here
Interesting lyrics...
<b>"I never wanted anything but this I worked hard, tried hard I ran around in domestic bliss I fought hard, died hard
Every time you're running out of here Every time you're running I get the fear
I never wanted any broken bones Scarred face, no home Your words surround me and asphyxiate And I burn all hate
Every time you're running out on me Every time you're running I can see
I'm not a vegetable I will not control myself I spit on the hand that feeds me I will not control myself
The waters break, the waters run all over me The waters break, the waters run And this time you're gonna pay
I'm not a vegetable I will not control myself I spit on the hand that feeds me I will not control myself" </b>
I'm probably wrong but i think this is about someone who was bullied from being mentally disabled
I think it's about a housewife who's sick of being abused and taken advantage of... Vegetable - placid, stationary.

Ramtharlikesguys. Just thought you should know:)
I think the correct line is "on this tide you're gonna pay"
People might say that I'm thinking too deeply, but this song may be about Christ - told from his perspective as a human being, a normal person. It's about the burden of what he had to do ("I never wanted anything but this") and how it was recieved ("I never wanted any broken boes, Scarred face, no home, Your words surround me and asphyxiate"). Yet he stayed true to himself and his mission (" And I burn all hate"). He refused the world ("I spit on the hand that feeds me") and didn't let it make him who he was by changing himself ("I will not control myself"). Anyone who really knows the Christ story should agree, and if you haven't you should refer to it to understand where I'm coming from.
I'm not religious at all, but just look on the back of the album case for "Pablo Honey" and you'll see an image of Christ on it. I think there are other Radiohead songs with similar meanings behind them (like "Prove Yourself" and "You").
"Know yourself." - Christ
