| If I recall correctly, this song is about a particular incident where a plane crashed on a snowy mountain. The survivors had to live by eating the bloated, frozen corpses of the other passengers. It is easily the nastiest song Radiohead have ever done, in my opinion. It's also great. | |

| As Thom Yorke himself put it "This song is about killing people and eating them". Obviously, the song is about cannibalism..."there's no point in letting it go to waste". | |

| I think it might mean that he wants people to take him seriously when he suggests such outrageous and provacative things even though to him it seems perfectly logical. | |

| sorry for all those posts before, some kind of screw up when adding it i swear, especially because now i think that's a bunch of bs. now i think its about the unending battle between the id and the superego,the id (a cat) just wants to consume people, which is all well and good until the superego,(a mouse) afraid of meeting a predictable animal fate, decides its time to stop and that its wrong. so the cat decides to fight back, only he was unprepared for the mouses own counter attack, and lets him go knowing hes lost, but doesnt disappear. now this goes on and on until the mouse becomes afraid of itself or of doing anything at all that might force it to become nothing but a predictable machine of reason, and the ego or the self or something is so afraid of doing nothing, that it gets eaten. nature takes over and the monster gets to abuse and consume somebody. rather than love them. | |
