- Ripcord Lyrics

Soul destroyed with clever toys for little boys
It's inevitable, inevitable, it's a soul destroyed
You're free until you drop
You're free until you've had enough
But you don't understand
You've no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord

Aeroplane
Do I mean what I mean?
It's inevitable, inevitable, oh aeroplane
A thousand miles an hour
And politics in power
That you don't understand
You've no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord

The answer to your prayers
We'll drop you anywhere
With no ripcord
No ripcord, no ripcord, no ripcord

When we explore how the lyrics were meant to make us feel, the song 'Ripcord' from Radiohead explores how people face their destructive fate through its lyricism which uses metaphors to show their feeling of being stuck in a disorderly world. The song Ripcord presents six distinct emotional states including angst and despair and reflection and social commentary and anger which together create its main emotional atmosphere. The song establishes three core themes through which it examines the loss of innocence and the certainty of destiny and the absence of human choice and the experience of confusion and the struggle between authority and political power.
