Nose Grows Some Lyrics – Thom Yorke (Work in Progress)

________it
If I open up the door
to the back of your ____sunken map___
and we’ll call your father
when it all becomes too much.
____spread your ashes___________
in the times you are friend
when the road ____in front____ collapsed
If I’m blowing myself away
__through the valley__
__turn eyes____
your nose just grows

but you just __a drop__
it is ___metal and is___ cold
we’ll wait upon the rose/roads
I’m waiting on the tide
through my back door.
If I’m blowing myself away
____the rest of life
___________road_______
your nose just grows
and grows.
__did I grow up tall?
my nose
my little bitty…

  1. ‘I don’t know if it’s happenin’
    If I open up the door
    To the back of your sunken map
    And then we’ll call the flood
    When it all becomes too much.
    Spread your last legs
    In the times you are afraid
    When the rolling thunder claps.
    If I’m blowing myself away
    through the valley tops.
    Two birds on a wire.
    Your nose just grows.
    But you’re just another drop.
    It is metal and it’s cold.
    We’ll wait up on the rocks,
    I am waiting on the tide
    Through my back doors.
    If I’m blowing myself away
    under half fluorescent lights.
    Two birds on a wire ohhh.
    Your nose just grows
    And grows.
    (One day I’ll grow up tall,
    I will be with you).

    • This was extremely helpful! I’m not entirely sold on the birds on the wire line the first time…there feels like another syllable there? I hear it better on the second time. Thanks so much!
