Radiohead - Sail to the Moon Lyrics | gotlyric.com

Released: June 9, 2003

Songwriter: Philip Selway Ed O’Brien Colin Greenwood Jonny Greenwood Thom Yorke

Producer: Radiohead Nigel Godrich

[Verse 1]
I sucked the moon
I spoke too soon
And how much did it cost?
I was dropped from moonbeams
And sailed on shooting stars

[Verse 2]
Maybe you'll be president
But know right from wrong
Or in the flood you'll build an Ark
And sail us to the moon

[Outro]
Sail us to the moon
Sail to the moon

Radiohead

Radiohead emerged from the shadow of ‘90s Brit-pop with a sound that was moody, melodic and explosive; with roots planted firmly in both alternative culture and the art-rock legacy of such groups as Pink Floyd, R.E.M., The Smiths, and Talking Heads—from whose song they derived their name.

They formed in 1985, as On A Friday, named after the day they’d usually rehearse. The line-up hasn’t changed Thom Yorke (guitar/vocals), Ed O'Brien (guitar), Philip Selway (drums) and brothers Colin and Jonny Greenwood.

In 1991, they signed with EMI, changed their name to Radiohead, and recorded their first EP, Drill. They released the record in 1992, and it made little impact, debuting on the UK Charts at #101. It wasn’t until their catchy 1992 single “Creep” became a massive hit that the band was launched into the limelight.
