Radiohead - A Pig's Ear (Piggsee)


 

lyrics

[...]
but we lie in wait

there are black birds flying in the lobby
there's a black sea of sticky saudi oil
and the government/commander in chief are/is
planning their/his escape

you made a pig's ear

Available on: LP7?

Notes:

'A Pig's Ear' might be included on Radiohead's upcoming album. Thom first talked about this song on August 22nd 2005 when posting on Dead Air Space, including a picture of a lyrics sheet: "doing something called piggsee or pigs ear".
'A Pig's Ear' appeared on Radiohead's studio blackboard, of which a picture was posted on September 30th 2005.

"Blackboard filling up with ideas. lots of things happening all over the studio at once.. which i always like.. although i keep having to remind myself to sit down occasionally. (...) so now we have.. lots of loose ends. or starts. two weeks sketching things. chipping away at structures. making polyphonic sweeps. mountains of words. the blackboard is filling up."
