VSQ Performs Radiohead: Enigmatic
[Verse 1]
Faith, you're driving me away
You do it everyday
You don't mean it, but it hurts like hell
My brain says I'm receiving pain
A lack of oxygen
From my life support, my iron lung

[Verse 2]
We're too young to fall asleep
Too cynical to speak
We are losing it, can't you tell?
We scratch our eternal itch
Our twentieth century b*tch
We are grateful for our iron lung

[Chorus]
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

[Verse 3]
Suck, suck your teenage thumb
Toilet trained and dumb
When the power runs out, we'll just hum
This, this is our new song
Just like the last one
A total waste of time, my iron lung

[Chorus]
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

[Bridge]
And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's okay
And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's okay

[Chorus]
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The headshrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
