Radiohead is Roman Perez Jr. Archivestrying to tell us something, we just don't know what yet.

On Monday the legendary rock band tweeted a cryptic video complete with lyrics from "Climbing Up the Walls" a song from the 1997 album, OK Computer, and what in the world is going on?

The video shows a glitchy computer screen accompanied by a a voiceover of a girl reciting several lyrics from "Climbing Up the Walls," which is weird because, you know, it's 2017 and not the '90s. However, the song appears to have some extra additions.

The lyrics from the video are as follows:

"I am the key to lock in your dress

That keeps your toys in the basement

And if you get to far inside

You'll find come out where you came in

So tuck the kids in safe tonight

And shut the eyes in the cupboard

I am the weapon that you needed

Keep an eye out for the neighbors

Anywhere you turn, I'll be there

Open your skull, I'll be there

Climbing Up the Walls."

Now, this song is clearly off the band's third studio album, but if you look at the bottom left corner of the screen at 0:23, the video reads: "OK," further teasing OK Computer's return.

Aside from that, all we really have to go off of are the words "Program: radiohead" and "1 REM."

Fans know the band is no stranger to leaving curiosity gaps, and as Pitchforkreported, they recently teased the 20th anniversary of OK Computer --which came out on May 21, 1997 -- with mysterious lyric posters. So while this video is definitely strange, it could easily be another component of the anniversary.

Will there a part two to the album? Is Radiohead expanding songs? TELL US, PLEASE.

While we're all anxiously awaiting answers, have no fear -- Radiohead fans are already furiously dissecting the 29-second video on Reddit.
