Lyrics for Song: The Bends
Lyrics for Album: Radiohead: The Best Of [2008]
Where do we go from here?
The words are coming out all weird
Where are you now, when I need you
Alone on an aeroplane
Fall asleep on against the window pane
My blood will thicken
I need to wash myself again to hide all the dirt and pain
'Cause I'd be scared that there's nothing underneath
But who are my real friends?
Have they all got the bends?
Am I really sinking this low?
My baby's got the bends, oh no
We don't have any real friends, no, no, no
Just lying in the bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend, waiting for something to happen
I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would happen
Where do we go from here?
The planet is a gunboat in a sea of fear
And where are you?
They brought in the CIA, the tanks and the whole marines
To blow me away, to blow me sky high
My baby's got the bends
We don't have any real friends
Just lying in the bar with my drip feed on
Talking to my girlfriend, waiting for something to happen
I wish it was the sixties, I wish I could be happy
I wish, I wish, I wish that something would happen
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race
I wanna live, breathe
I wanna be part of the human race, race, race, race
Where do we go from here?
The words are coming out all weird
Where are you now when I need you?

The Bends
Released in 1995 on the seminal album *The Bends*, this track stands as a cornerstone of Radiohead's early discography. The song exemplifies the band's transition from post-punk influences to a more melodic, introspective rock sound, characterized by Thom Yorke's distinctive vocals and the group's innovative use of guitar textures. It captured the zeitgeist of mid-90s Britpop while simultaneously pushing boundaries with experimental production techniques that would define their later work. As a defining recording of the era, it remains a critical touchstone for alternative rock and continues to resonate with listeners globally for its emotional depth and sonic evolution. |
