[Speaking: Thom Yorke]
Once and all, it's gonna get ugly

[Chorus]
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out, then you cut the string
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
First you reel me out and then you cut the string

[Verse 1]
You used to be alright
What happened?
Did the cat get your tonguе?
Did your string come undone?
One by onе
One by one
It comes to us all
It's as soft as your pillow

[Verse 2]
You used to be alright
What happened?
Et cetera, et cetera
Facts for whatever
Fifteen steps, then a sheer drop
[Chorus]
How come I end up where I started?
How come I end up where I went wrong?
Won't take my eyes off the ball again
You reel me out, then you cut the string

[Outro]
