Radiohead is celebrating their 20th anniversary release of OK Computer this year with a box set called OKNOTOK due out at the end of June. The track, “I Promise”, has been played live plenty of times but never officially saw itself on an official release, and it was previously announced as something the band will be including. Now comes the news that they’re going to release this as a single due out next Friday, June 2.
Thankfully there are a few live versions up on YouTube uploaded from shows during the 1996 tour.

lyrics:
I won’t run away no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise
Even when you lock me out, I promise
I say my prayers every night, I promise
I don’t wish that I’m strict, I promise
The tantrums and the chilling chats, I promise
Even when the ship is wrecked, I promise
Tie me to the rotten deck, I promise
I won’t fool around no more, I promise
Even when I get bored, I promise
Even when you lock me out, I promise
I say my prayers every night, I promise
I won’t fool around no more, I promise
