Thom Yorke
"And It Rained All Night"
and it rained all night and washed the filth away
down new york air conditioned drains
the click click clack of the heavy black trains
a million engines in neutral
the tick tock tick of a ticking time bomb
50 feet of concrete underground
one little leak becomes a lake
says the tiny voice in my ear piece
so i give in to the rhythm
the click click clack
im too wasted to fight back
tick tock goes the pendulum
on the old grandfather clock
i can see you
but i can never reach you
and it rained all night and then all day
the drops were the size of your hands and face
the worms come out to see what's up
we pull the car up from the river
its relentless
invisible
indefatigable
indisputable
undeniable
so how come it looks so beautiful?
how come the moon falls from the sky?
i can see you
but i can never reach you
