Song lyrics
Drag him out your window 
Dragging out your dead 
Singing I miss you 
Snakes and ladders 
Flip the lid
Out pops the cracker 
Smacks you in the head 
Knifes you in the neck
Kicks you in the teeth 
Steel toe caps 
Takes all your credit cards
Get up get the gunge
Get the eggs 
Get the flan in the face
The flan in the face 
The flan in the face
Dance you fucker dance you fucker
Don't you dare
Don't you dare
Don't you flan in the face
Take it with the love is given
Take it with a pinch of salt
Take it to the taxman
Let me back let me back
I promise to be good
Don't look in the mirror 
At the face you don't recognize
Help me call the doctor
Put me inside
Put me inside 
Put me inside 
Put me inside 
Put me inside

I keep the wolf from the door
But he calls me up
Calls me on the phone 
Tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
Steal all my children 
If I don't pay the ransom
But I'll never see him again
If I squeal to the cops
No no no no no no no......

Walking like giant cranes ah
With my x ray eyes i strip you naked 
In a tight little world and why are you on the list?
Stepford wives who are we to complain?
Investments and dealers investments and dealers
Cold wives and mistresses
Cold wives and sunday papers.
City boys in first class
Don't know we're born little
Someone else is gonna come and clean it up
Born and raised for the job
Someone else always does always pick it up
Get over get up get over
Turn the tape off.

I keep the wolf from the door 
But he calls me up
Calls me on the phone 
Tells me all the ways that he's gonna mess me up
Steal all my children
If I don't pay the ransom 
But I'll never see him again
If I squeal to the cops
So I'm just gonna hoooo......

i was going to point the fact its at not from out but i was beaten.

I love this song, it's great, and at first i was sure it wasnt thom singing, as the style of the verses is so different to normal radiohead stuff (that i prefer) but all in all its brill!!

arguebly their best song since ok computer's karma police or the bends street spirit. just love the way the song gains momentum and i can listen to it over and over again and i would not get sick of it, just like the previous 2 songs mentioned.
100% brilliant.

It has a Beck-like vocal style for this song (AKA almost rapping ). Thankfully, it's done very well. Very cool song and great ending for this album!

an AWESOME song. It really doesn't sound like Thom's voice at the beggining, but the raping is incredible, a lot better than most rappers out there...
...and watching Thom move his arms and walk like a raper is really funny
