On A Friday

Featuring: Radiohead

[Intro]
Shoot it down
Mmm, yeah

[Verse 1]
He's got to let something
Start hitting through the wall
Dreaming about something
Means nothing at all
We'll put him on the TV
And make lots of videos
You can smile for the goodies

[Pre-Chorus]
Appear on breakfast shows
All right boys, come on boys, all right boys

[Chorus]
Hey, whoa, climbing up a bloody great hill
I'm hey, whoa, I'm climbing up, climbing up, I'm up, up
Everything is fluent
But everything ain't good
Why am I so misunderstood?

[Verse 2]
He's got to know something
Say, Mr. Radio Man
Yes, he's got a little something
Say, Mr. Producer Man
They want to buy him hooks
And screaming girls
Who haven't got a clue
What it means to be living in
The horrible evil little world

[Pre-Chorus]
Come on, boys, yeah

[Chorus]
Hey, whoa, climbing up a bloody great hill
I'm hey, whoa, I'm climbing up, I'm climbing up, I'm up, up
Everything is good here
But everything ain't good
Why am I so misunderstood?
Why am I so misunderstood, boys and girls?

[Keyboard solo]

[Chorus]
Hey, whoa, climbing up a bloody great hill
I'm hey, whoa, I'm climbing, I'm up, climbing up, up, up
Everything is fluent
But everything ain't good
Why am I so misunder-
Everything is good here
But everything ain't good
Why am I so misunder-

[Outro]
Hey, Mr. Producer Man
Give me a break, man
Give me a break, yeah
Hey, Mr. Producer Man
I want to be famous
Something of me
Some family
So, uh, uh, uh

Back in the day, Radiohead was called On a Friday, a garage punk/rock band were some of the initial members (Jonny joined them a few years later) grown up together in the Abingdon School at Oxfordshire, England. They had been recording several demo tapes, which have been released later online.
