| Radiohead - Knives Out |
 |
Second single from "Amnesiac" (2001), by
Radiohead.
Directed by Michel Gondry.
The whole video was shot in one take in the
same set (quite remarkable considering the
scene changes required).
Director Michel Gondry said the video was
autobiographical, about himself and a
girlfriend once he had. However, Thom Yorke
said the lyrics were about cannibalism.
This video features Emma de Caunes as Thom's
girlfriend.
The video tryed to interpret the surreal
imagery and fit it with the song lyrics.
Nevertheless, Radiohead vetoed this video
from the Director's DVD release because it
was about Gondry's personal life and loosely
based on the song.
The song was developed during the 18-month
Kid A and Amnesiac sessions, and it is
legendary for supposedly "having taken 373
days to record". Although "Knives Out" is not
similar to Radiohead's earlier rock style as
featured on The Bends (1995), it is usually
noted as one of the most traditional guitar
songs the band has done since 2000.
L Y R I C S
I want you to know
He's not coming back
Look into my eyes
I'm not coming back
So knives out
Catch the mouse
Don't look down
Shove it in your mouth
If you'd been a dog
They would've drowned you at birth
Look into my eyes
It's the only way you'll know I'm telling the
truth
So knives out
Cook him up
Squash his head
Put him in the pot
I want you to know
He's not coming back
He's bloated and frozen
Still there's no point in letting it go to
waste
So knives out
Catch the mouse
Squash his head
Put him in the pot
