[Verse 1]
I won't run away no more
I promise
Even when I get bored
I promise
Even when you lock me out
I promise
I say my prayers every night
I promise

[Verse 2]
I know which side I'm spread
I promise
The tantrums and the chitty chats
I promise

[Chorus]
Even when the ship is wrecked
I promise
Tie me to the rotting deck
I promise

[Verse 3]
I won't run away no more
I promise
Even when I get bored
I promise

[Chorus]
Even when the ship is wrecked
I promise
Tie me to the rotting deck
I promise

[Outro]
I won't run away no more
I promise

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.
