[Verse 1]
Oh, Banana Co
We really love you, and we need you
And oh, Banana Co
We'd really love to believe you

[Chorus]
But everything's underground
We gotta dig it up somehow
Yeah, yeah

[Verse 2]
Oh, she said "No go"
She said she'd like to, she's seen you
And oh, Banana Co
She knows if you die then we all do

[Chorus]
And everything's underground
We've gotta dig it up somehow
Yeah, yeah

[Outro]
Everything's burning down
We gotta put it out somehow
Yeah, yeah

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.
