Mother Mary come to me For I am a wicked child I've sinned and I am so confused And I am a wicked child I am a wicked child [Verse 2] I am the devil's son And I wish I could be good I walk the crooked mile Yet I wish I could be good I wish I could be good [Verse 3] If I could've kept On the straight and narrow If I could've kept On the straight and narrow, and not have broke your heart Not have broke your heart [Verse 4] Now I wake up in the night He's tugging at my arms and legs like I was a marionette Send baby Jesus to radiate his light To radiate his light
They played it at soundcheck a lot on the US tour in 2006. The arrangement was vastly different as Jonny was playing an electric banjo. There are distant bootleg recordings of the song by fans hanging around outside venues here on RUclips if you search for it
I Am a Wicked Child Radiohead Mother Mary come for me For I am a wicked child I have sinned and I am so confused For I am a wicked child I am a wicked child I am the Devil's son And I wish I could be good I walk the crooked mile Yeah I wish I could be good I wish I could be good If I could have kept on the straight and narrow If I could have kept on the straight and narrow But God broke your heart God broke your heart Now I wake up in the night He's tugging at my arms and legs Like I was a marionette Send baby Jesus To radiate his lie To radiate his lie
RADIOHEAD BSIDES ARE EVERYTHING
They should play this more often. I love their B-sides and this one ain't bad at all. Amazing Sounds of Orgy and The Trickster are my favorites.
Love Trickster and Orgy - Cuttooth is up there, too.
The Trickster - my alltime favourite! Dang it!
This and polyethylene make my life also last flowers from in rainbows disk 2
This song could've lasted 20 minutes and no one would've complained. Amazing son and surprised they don't rock this more.
Mother Mary come to me
For I am a wicked child
I've sinned and I am so confused
And I am a wicked child
I am a wicked child
[Verse 2]
I am the devil's son
And I wish I could be good
I walk the crooked mile
Yet I wish I could be good
I wish I could be good
[Verse 3]
If I could've kept
On the straight and narrow
If I could've kept
On the straight and narrow, and not have broke your heart
Not have broke your heart
[Verse 4]
Now I wake up in the night
He's tugging at my arms and legs like I was a marionette
Send baby Jesus to radiate his light
To radiate his light
Thanks so much for uploading this! Great performance from one helluva band.
Even their b sides are awesome
Yeah they are, in fact I like a number of their B-sides better than some of their album tracks!
Why did they only ever play this one time ever...
It's a forbidden song

very cool live
I'll bet ;^ (
Years and years of listening to this song, and only now am I realizing how similar the riff is to All Day and All of the Night by The Kinks.
I Am a Wicked Child
Radiohead
Mother Mary come for me
For I am a wicked child
I have sinned and I am so confused
For I am a wicked child
I am a wicked child
I am the Devil's son
And I wish I could be good
I walk the crooked mile
Yeah I wish I could be good
I wish I could be good
If I could have kept on the straight and narrow
If I could have kept on the straight and narrow
But God broke your heart
God broke your heart
Now I wake up in the night
He's tugging at my arms and legs
Like I was a marionette
Send baby Jesus
To radiate his lie
To radiate his lie
i was there i live in so cal california and flew to san sebastian and salamanca to see them
Super rare!
Best Radiohead song ever
Other than the old version of (Don't get any) Big Ideas aka Nude
TheCheesecakedeath
Send baby Jesus : to radiate His Light.
The description lol
Nice pic
So cute things
One of my absolute favorite B-sides. But seriously Radiohead only pumps out quality so I am admittedly being completely bias.
SHOPPING
Yeah, a rare indeed
why the fuck is this a b side
Chrome Puff it is not
It's an unreleased track
A b-side needs an official release on a single
@@type-moonfag4413 this came out on the com lag ep in japan, iirc
It was on COM LAG though
@@type-moonfag4413 It's on Com Lag EP.
@@AnimatedLoopHD which isn't a b-side, it's an ep track, i stand partly corrected
Harmonica is the last instrument I would expect to hear in a Radiohead song, who's playing it here?
Man this song is great. Not a huge Radiohead fan but I heard this couple weeks ago first time.
I think it was Jonny.
Yup it's definitely Jonny it says on the king of gear webpage
is Jonny palying this harp?
Yes, he is. :)
floritoner is it not a harmonica?
Ushikawa Sadboy In slang, harmonica is sometimes called a "harp". John Lennon used to call it that way.
julianuary oh okay, thanks for the info.
Could be Nigel too. He used to play it in 2000
