Amok

a penny for your thoughts my love / a swinging door / a penny for your thoughts / they try to jump me // a penny for your thoughts my love / they're spaghetti / they possess me / I'm trying to be a thought killer / but they come back to bite me // a penny for your thoughts my love / they court disaster / I'm trying to be a thought killer // a penny for your thoughts my love / you'll forget me / I'm sending out choirs of angels / I'm trying to be a thought killer / tying round pieces of string / to run amok / they distract me / they possess me / you got me / back to bite me / to run amok / a penny for your thoughts my love

In 1999, the following drawing appeared in the secret booklet which came with "Kid A":
