My Iron Lung Lyrics
Artist(Band):Radiohead
Review The Song (10)Print the Lyrics
Faith, you're driving me away
You do it everyday
You don't mean it
But it hurts like hell

My brain says I'm receiving pain
A lack of oxygen
From my life support
My iron lung

We're too young to fall asleep
Too cynical to speak
We are losing it
Can't you tell?

We scratch our eternal itch
A twentieth century bitch
And we are grateful for
Our iron lung

The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

Suck, suck your teenage thumb
Toilet trained and dumb
When the power runs out
We'll just hum

This, this is our new song
Just like the last one
A total waste of time
My iron lung

The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's OK
And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's OK

The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

Review about My Iron Lung

to johnny depp | Reviewer: Anonymous | 9/10/2008
    "Thus, it is obvious that the members in Radiohead are musicians. In my book they are not on par with Beethoven, but they are musicians nonetheless. They are modern composers too - don't they write their own songs? Perhaps a stricter definition of the word "musician", such as an instrumentalist, is what you were referring to. I just needed to clarify and analyze what you wrote because it really didn't make any sense - haha - not trying to be a cyber bully or anything."

    what he meant was the person who said "theyre the beethoven of music" was basically saying beethoven didnt make music, assuming he painted or something. so your whole rant about what is and what isnt music was just useless. im not trying to be a cyber bully or anything :P

    this song is pretty sick.



    still here | Reviewer: Sarah | 8/5/2008

    Just looking up the lyrics to this song after hearing that it was written because the band was upset about Creep. I've listen to this song many times but never realized how beautifully and cleverly written it is.
    Boy has Radiohead shown the world that they're not 1-hit wonders!
    They're 1 in a million! ;D
    Rock on guys



    Clarification on the term "Musician" | Reviewer: Johnny Depp | 7/3/2008

    Directed to the person who said this:

    "To the person who said Radiohead are the Beethovens of music: First of all, you spelled Beethoven wrong, second of all, Beethoven was a musician, you idiot.

    I'm sorry, I didn't mean to be a keyboard bully. haha. I love this song, that short bridge before the end is the best part. I just saw Radiohead a couple of days ago, and it was definitely the best concert I've ever been to."

    Do you think you're smart limiting the term musician to just Beethoven? Clearly, you do not know what a musician is. Here is the defintion from dictionary.com:

    1. a person who makes music a profession, esp. as a performer of music.
    2. any person, whether professional or not, skilled in music.

    Thus, it is obvious that the members in Radiohead are musicians. In my book they are not on par with Beethoven, but they are musicians nonetheless. They are modern composers too - don't they write their own songs? Perhaps a stricter definition of the word "musician", such as an instrumentalist, is what you were referring to. I just needed to clarify and analyze what you wrote because it really didn't make any sense - haha - not trying to be a cyber bully or anything.



    on the verge of losing his love | Reviewer: cominfast | 6/26/2008

    faith, could be name or a metaphor for the woman he loves, but she doesn't seem to be reciprocating the way yorke wnats her to!!!.
    hence he says 'driving me away", he's cynical to openly express his love for her, and he is constantly feeling the pain in this bloody situation.

    he still might go for other bitches, but this particular woman has to say yes, he would go back to her!!

    he doesn't want to let go too, for he feels he can wait forever, even if it is insanely late in his life



    Irony | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/26/2008

    This song is pure irony. They wrote it about feeling drowned by the song Creep, about the feeling that it was the only thing keeping them afloat. I just saw them play a few weeks back, and they all look so contented when they play this song, probably because they have LONG ascended past the idea that they are one-hit wonders.



    possible meaning of the song | Reviewer: Sean | 6/24/2008

    Obviously the lyrics here are very deep but this is my interpretation of them: I think that this song kind of has a different meaning per verse. the first verse is a clear statement on a sort of atheism it seems like. Like religion is something that's nice for some, but it doesn't work for him. the rest,to me seems to be like an anti-"Smells Like Teen Spirit." It kind of is saying that teenage years are a waste of time. We go from being cute and innocent to old and cynical over the course of 5 years or so.

    wow.. | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/27/2007

    haha i just looked at the lyrics cuz i didn't know wat they were saying in the song... good song! :P i don't really get wat the lyrics mean tho...



    EXCELLENT | Reviewer: Daniel | 8/24/2007

    Radio head make music that much better. I think they are the um... THE Beehtovens of music!!!



    LOVE it | Reviewer: Anonymous | 8/16/2007

    I just love how they wrote a song about Creep that's better than Creep that describes how they feel about Creep being their hit. Radiohead is brilliant. They do everything right.
