Lyrics:
When we got the call
Saw dollars in my eyes
We're supporting apartheid
But the pay's really high
I float like white phosphorous
Over Beit Hanoun skies
I wish I was ethical
We're so very unethical
But Im a creep
I'm playing Israel
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
I don't care if it hurts
I want to have control
I want a perfect paycheck
On Bibi's payroll
I don't even notice
No Palestinians around
I wish I was ethical
So very unethical
But I'm a creep
Playing Israel
What the hell am I doing here?
I don't belong here
We're selling out to war
We're selling out, to war, war, war, war
Whatever makes Bibi happy
Whatever he wants
We're here for apartheid
Palestine's occupied...

here's an article from last March, but a lot has happened since then, including debates between various celebs and musicians and so on about #BDS - Radiohead says they will soon play in Israel no matter what.

'Palestinians urge Radiohead not to entertain Israeli apartheid'

I do support #BDS – but for me the additional hypocrisy is that Radiohead has always promoted the #Tibet cause in support for freedom from #China – but now he says they don't want to be 'political' because the issue is #Palestine and they want to make money in #Israel.
Ok... 🤔
@jd alrighty then ...
Thanks for that
#contemplates #Radiohead
@jd catch me up - did #Radiohead do something bad?
