Singalong! Creep by Radiohead

In looking up the lyrics to post for this song, I have learned that Thom Yorke describes this song as being about a drunk guy who can't get up the nerve to talk to a beautiful lady, and so follows her around. So... yeah. Turns out that Creep puts the creep in creepy. Also, Yorke was all, "it's hard to be a sensitive dude and still be seen as sexy," which might have some legitimacy to it but also sounds dangerously close to complaining about being friendzoned all the time. I smack my forehead. (But will still sing along with the song.) (Source)

CREEP

by Radiohead

When you were here before

Couldn't look you in the eye

You're just like an angel

Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather

In a beautiful world

I wish I was special

You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts

I wanna have control

I want a perfect body

I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice

When I'm not around

You're so fuckin' special

I wish I was special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

She's running out the door

She's running out

She run, run, run, run

Run

Whatever makes you happy

Whatever you want

You're so fuckin' special

I wish I was special

But I'm a creep

I'm a weirdo

What the hell am I doing here?

I don't belong here

I don't belong here
