Radiohead - Fake Plastic Trees Meaning

Song Released: 1995
Fake Plastic Trees Lyrics
For her fake chinese rubber plant
In fake plastic earth.
That she bought from a rubber man
In a town full of rubber plans.
Just to get rid of itself.
And It Wears Her Out, it wears her out
It wears her out,...

Thom Yorke has said that this song was inspired by two things; after seeing a Jeff Buckley show and The Canary Wharf in London. Apparently it's his views on globalization, mass marketing etc. Either way this is one of RH's best songs and of my favorites. If you ever get a chance to see their live concert DVD (astoria live), you get to really appreciate this song.
