Radiohead: 2 + 2 = 5

Are you such a dreamer
To put the world to rights
I'll stay home forever
Where two and two always makes a five
I'll lay down the tracks
Sandbag and hide
January has April showers
And two and two always makes a five
It's the devil's way now
There is no way out
You can scream and you can shout
It is too late now
Because you're not there
Payin' attention
Yeah I feel it, I needed attention
Payin' attention
Yeah I need it, I needed attention
I needed attention
Yeah I love it, the attention
Payin' attention
Soon oh
I try to sing along
But the music's all wrong
Cos I'm not
I'll swallow up flies?
Back and hide
But I'm not
Oh hail to the thief
Oh hail to the thief
But I'm not
Don't question my authority or put me in the box
Cos I'm not
Oh go up to the king, and the sky is falling in
But it's not
Maybe not

{I read somewhere that this song could be seen as indirectly directed towards the bush administraion, and I had always listened to the song before, but I never actually paid attention. And most of what Thom Yorke says in there could be taken as an opinion of bush as president. This song is off Hail To The Thief which was released in 2003. Now I don't know if this is true in that it is a reference to bush, but it's fun to think so. Have fun with that, and I heart Radiohead}
