Here's what Thom Yorke himself had to say about this song:

"You know, when you meet these people and they just talk to you 'cause they want something from you. They really know you're the key, you have something they want. And you want to take a cold shower afterwards. You know what I'm talking about?"

During performance @ Coachella 2012

You think Mr Yorke thinks the Karma police should arrest those people? They want something, just like I really want a good supper tonight, but I may not have the honest power to go after or the means to achieve what I want. Attaining such an ability is seen as a way of truth and light and self development and improvement. Many commend others for seeking what they want - it in itself is a real, crucial Christian benchmark for example, "Seek and ye will find, Knock and the door will be opened", is given as the attitude God...

@leo45 In response to le cochon1 -- Ooooooooor, maybe you're just typing out nonsense. Because I'm pretty sure everything you've posted here has nothing to do with Yorke's words, or the song lyrics.
