Scatterbrain
i’m walking out in a force ten gale
birds thrown around, bullets for hail
the roof is pulling off by its fingernails
your voice is rattlin’ on my window sill
yesterday’s headlines blown by the wind
yesterday’s people end up scatterbrain
any fool can easy pick a hole i only wish i could fall in
a moving target in a firing range
somewhere i’m not
scatterbrain
somewhere i’m not
scatterbrain
lightning fuse, powercut
-Radiohead, In Rainbows..”Scatterbrain”
It seems every morning while strolling to starbuck’s for my morning cup of joe, my fingers automatically search for this song. Walking to work is my time to clear my head and prepare for the day ahead of me, and I feel this song is very fitting. I posted the lyrics above. I’ve never been a huge Radiohead fan but I’ve never discounted their work and longevity.
I first heard this song in a friends car, but for the life of me I couldn’t remember if they said who sang it or what it was a cover of. I’d heard of the artist thru many other artist and she quickly grew on me.
