Radiohead - Sulk Lyrics






You bite through the big wall, the big wall bites back
You just sit there and sulk, sit there and bawl
You are so pretty when you're on your knees
Disinfected, eager to please

Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
God rest your soul
When the loving comes and we've already gone
Just like your dad, you'll never change

Each time it comes it eats me alive
I try to behave but it eats me alive
So I declare a holiday
Fall asleep, drift away

Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
God rest your soul
When the loving comes and we've already gone
Just like your dad, you'll never change

Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
God rest your soul
When the loving comes and we've already gone
Just like your dad, you'll never change

    totally underrated song. one of my absolute favorites. wish they would play it again live.

  7. w.... ....

    man i wish they'd return to this kind of stuff - The Bends was so listenable - not saying the stuff they've done in the last decade and a half is necessarily bad, i just can't sit back and listen to it and really enjoy it the way i've done with The Bends a thousand times

    w.... ....

  10. J.... K....

    You bite through the big wall, the big wall bites back
    You just sit there and sulk, sit there and bawl
    You are so pretty when you're on your knees
    Disinfected, eager to please
    Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
    God rest your soul
    When the loving comes and we've already gone
    Just like your dad, you'll never change
    Each time it comes it eats me alive
    I try to behave but it eats me alive
    So I declare a holiday
    Fall asleep, drift away
    Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
    God rest your soul
    When the loving comes and we've already gone
    Just like your dad, you'll never change
    Sometimes you sulk, sometimes you burn
    God rest your soul
    When the loving comes and we've already gone
    Just like your dad, you'll never change

  25. P.... V....

    I just adore his air drumming in this one

  26. D.... ....

    Stunning vocals. I miss the raw power that Thom used to have.

    D.... ....

    he still has it but it has transformed

  27. C.... K....

    that key change at the end is fucking stellar, by far one of the best voices in rock.

  28. A.... I....

  30. P.... A....

    Hermosa🎵

    His old voice was beautiful, more aggressive, and that growl in his singing is amazing

    r.... t....

    Kid A - Amnesiac is their best album dude

    r.... t....

    Jacked Johnson Have you not listened to anything after OK computer? They have so many other great albums afterwards

  46. p.... w....

    Why do they never play this live?!?!?!?!

    p.... w....

    cause its very hard to sing

    p.... w....

    that high note at the end, and it isn't falsetto!

    p.... w....

    Yeah, while Thom's still an incredible singer, he can't hit that note anymore. Like, that vocal slide during the key change is godly.

    p.... w....

    gavin taxio I bet he can. It's just that it would have to be the first song of the set.

    p.... w....

    ...EVER!

  47. t.... b....

    great performance!

  48. r.... ....

    Queen will rock us all.

  49. M.... A....

    Is this part of a dvd?

    M.... A....

    i don't know

    M.... A....

    Thank you for sharing@jemappelle82!!  

  50. l.... ....

    My boys! <3 

  51. A.... ....

    I wonder why they don't play this live anymore?

    A.... ....

    @Dieko Montesinos del Barco
    Sad to say but THIS.

    A.... ....

    +Dieko Montesinos They could tune it down so he can reach those notes

  52. d.... ....

    It makes me cry. It is fucking awesome song and has mind blowing soulful vocal ever made.

  53. C.... J....

    Beautiful, thanks for sharing.

  54. N.... ....

    that B at 3:32 blows my mind in the studio version. and is blowing my mind 50x more live.

  55. G.... P....

    Probably one of the most vocally demanding songs by Radiohead... That non-falsetto high B at 3:32 is pretty challenging, I doubt Thom can still do that.

    G.... P....

    what r u saying? He still sings like an angel

    G.... P....

    @Nati Ju IKR?!

    G.... P....

    @Nati Ju yeah, but back then his vocals were even better, which makes sense because he's an old man now

    G.... P....

    He struggled to even do it then, there's no way he could do it now

    G.... P....

    belting is not good for the longevity of the voice, although it is very expressive.

  56. E.... G....

    This song was inspired by the Hungerford Massacre, it was written as a response to it, thus in respct of the victims and their families, Radiohead stopped playing the song in their live shows.

    E.... G....

    They don't actual play many

    E.... G....

    They don't actually play many
    songs off the bends anyway and the song has dated- it just doesn't fit into their sets, it's of its time. Maybe it could work if they re-did the arrangement but other than that not really.


    I like it on the bends but I can understand why they don't play it;
    It's not street spirit is it?!

    E.... G....

    They still do play Fake Plastic Trees, Bends, Telex, and Street Spirit. Maybe the song is a bit tough for Thom to sing properly.

    E.... G....

    31 years ago today, I live in Hungerford.

    E.... G....

    @PurelyAfrican I know this is heresy -- but I like this song better than Street Spirit

  57. G.... ....

    seriously. I love this song. I think it's one of the best off The Bends. I wonder if they disagree, and that's why they don't play it...

    G.... ....

    as far as i can tell they don't play it cuz thom yorke can't hit that high note toward the end

  58. A.... ....

    where did you get this?? i can´t thank you enough for posting this!!!

  59. s.... ....
