Radiohead Lyrics

Album: Hail to the Thief

A Wolf at the Door 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

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

calls me on the phone

if i don't pay the ransom

cold wives and sunday papers.

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'
