Radiohead - Lotus Flower
I will shrink myself into your pocket
Invisible, do what you want, do what you want
I will shrink and I will disappear
I will slip into the groove and cut me off. You cut me off
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I'll set you free
I'll set you free
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
Tonight I've set you free
I'll set you free
Slowly we unfurl
As Lotus Flowers
Cause all is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
I can't kick your habit
Just to feel your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart
We will shrink and be quiet as mice
And while the cat is away, do what we want
Do what we want
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
Tonight I set you free
I set you free
Cause all is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
Mmmmm Moments float into my room
Slowly we unfurl
As lotus flowers
Cause all is the moon upon a stick
To Dance around a pit
The darkness is beneath
I can't kick your habit
Just to feel your fast ballooning head
Listen to your heart
Lotus Flower is the fifth track and first single from Radiohead's eighth studio album, The King of Limbs. According to the Lotus Flower Songfacts, the song was debuted by Thom Yorke at a warm-up show with his other band Atoms For Peace on October, 2nd 2009 at the Echoplex in Los Angeles. Radiohead first performed the track during a January 2010 Haiti benefit concert in Los Angeles. The music video features Radiohead's frontman Thom Yorke singing and dancing to the track in front of a backdrop in black and white. Yorke's dancing in the video seems to be unsystematic, at some points shaking eccentrically to moving in a robot-like form.
