I don't want to be crippled and cracked
Shoulders and wrists, knees and back
Ground to dust and ash
Crawling on all fours
When you've got to feel it in your bones
When you've got to feel it in your bones
Now I can't climb the stairs
Pieces missing everywhere
Prozak painkillers
When you've got to feel it in your bones
When you've got to feel it in your bones
I used to fly like Peter Pan
All the children flew when I touched their hands
You see, you've got to feel it in your bones
You see, you've got to feel it in your bones
Ah-ah

    We have different criteria, obviously. Even if a song as 'obvious' lyrics that's not necessarily a knock against the song. I don't think 'depth in meaning' of song lyrics has any correlation with the quality, or at least my enjoyment, of the song. For me, this is an awesome song, just on a pure enjoyment level.

    Just, The Bends, and My Iron Lung are all good songs, too...although I don't like the other songs you mention...Planet Telex, Street Spirit, High & Dry are the handful of Radiohead songs I don't care for. I know Sreet Spirit is a big fan favorite but I think it's majorly overrated compared to the dozens of other great Radiohead songs.
