The Tourist
Radiohead
OK Computer

It barks at no-one else but me,
like its seen a ghost.
I guess its seen the sparks a-glowin,
no-one else would know.
Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.

Sometimes I get overcharged,
thats when you see sparks.
They ask me where the Im going?
At a 1000 feet per second,

hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.

Hey man, slow down, slow down,
idiot, slow down, slow down.

    PS. reliancemaster, what the do you know about the people who has posted on youtube, if you listen to the songs you might learn about something that affects your life, you might actually get smarter
    And how do you know that the climate change is a lie? because you heard it from a different scientist than the usual? you dont know shit

    I like to talk intellectually about music too, but he has got a point, it isn’t necessary at all. I hope you listen to the music because it’s good not because it’s clever..

    by the way, I do belive in climate change but scientist lie too, and science is build on theories that can’t be proven, we just know it works.

    People like to talk intellectually about the music because – I dont know – they have a brain?

    As for your ‘climate change lies’.
    Scientists lie eh?
    Like they lie about vaccines and evolution?

    Fuck off you anti-science troll, get off your computer (brought to you by science) and go back to the stone age where you belong!

    jesus …
    jesus christ all you stupid radiohead fans. what’s your problem why do you have to over intellectualise the music?
    it’s good, but why read so much into it, i guess you’re the same dummies who buy into the climate change lies and all that other shite about the stuff on menwith hill.
    sort your lives out and actually care about something that affects your own lives. thom yorke is such a droning on bore who says basically so much more than he needs to.made a couple of good albums though

    Perfect conclusion …
    Perfect conclusion to the album. In my opinion, this song is a message to the modern world – people are rushing around, trying to become fitter and happier, sinking into a complacent existence of no alarms and no surprises, not taking the time to realize the beauty of life.

    “Hey man, slow down…”
    Sums the album’s message up perfectly.

    Same, I found it …
    Same, I found it was a perfect closing track, which didn’t end on a bit of a downer. “The Tourist” I found really lovely, calm and peaceful. With tracks like A Wolf At The Door or Street Spirit (which is indeed calm and lovely, but one of the saddest songs I’ve ever heard) they sounded more down but still brilliant. This song is different all right.

    This song makes me feel like I’m going really fast and really slow at the same time…. You don’t see that often
