Idioteque
Radiohead︀ Lyrics

Who's in a bunker, who's in a bunker?
Who is hiding away from the impending disaster?

Women and children first and the children first and the children
Priority is given to women and children during the disaster.

I'll laugh until my head comes off
I'll continue to find joy and humor, even in dark times.

I'll swallow till I burst until I burst until I
I'll keep consuming and indulging until I can no longer handle the consequences.

I have seen too much I haven't seen enough
I have experienced a lot, but there is much more that I have yet to witness.

You haven't seen it
You haven't experienced the same things that I have, so you can't understand fully.

Here I'm alive
Despite the disaster, I am still alive and present in the moment.

Everything all of the time
I am constantly aware of the world around me, even in moments of chaos.

Ice age coming ice age coming
There is a major, looming crisis approaching.

Let me hear both sides let me hear both sides let me hear both
I want to hear different perspectives and ideas before making a decision or forming an opinion.

Throw it in the fire throw it in the fire throw it on the
We need to eradicate anything that could contribute to the impending disaster before it's too late.

We're not scaremongering
We're not trying to spread panic or fear, this is a real situation.

This is really happening happening
The disaster is actually occurring, it's not just a rumor or scare tactic.

Mobiles squearking mobiles chirping
The constant noise and distractions of technology.

Take the money run take the money run take the money
People are only concerned about themselves and their own financial gain, even in times of crisis.

Here I'm alive (the first of the children)
I am one of the lucky survivors, but there are many other innocent people who did not make it.

Everything all of the time (the first of the children)
Even though I survived, I am constantly reminded of the tragedy and the loss of others through my experiences.
