We Are All Creeps

The inspiration to create this blog came from a variety of places, but the biggest contributor was Radiohead's song, "Creep."  I have included the lyrics here (they carry a powerful message), along with the link to a cover of this song by a homeless man who calls himself Mustard.  The song discusses how the average and normal people of society are often underappreciated by the privileged.

Lyrics to Radiohead's "Creep":

When you were here before,
Couldn't look you in the eye
You're just like an angel,
Your skin makes me cry

You float like a feather
In a beautiful world
I wish I was special
You're so fuckin' special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't care if it hurts,
I wanna have control
I want a perfect body
I want a perfect soul

I want you to notice
when I'm not around
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here, ohhhh, ohhhh

She's running out again
She's running out
She run run run run...
run... run...

Whatever makes you happy
Whatever you want
You're so fuckin' special
I wish I was special

But I'm a creep,
I'm a weirdo
What the hell am I doin' here?
I don't belong here

I don't belong here...
