[Verse 1: Mike Gordon] Woke up on the wrong side Atrophied thoughout Dreamt with open eyes I was vaccuuming about
In a straight line A very straight line
[Verse 2] Each new morning I wake With clouds around my head Lift up the walls and pipes And vaccuum out my head
In a straight line A very straight line
[Chorus] Ooooh Vac-you-you-me Waking up dead Ooooh Vac-you-you-me Waking up dead Waking up dead
[Verse 3] In addition stands a man In a backlit halo glow Wears a darkened smile Is there something I should know?
Something all consuming All consuming
[Chorus 2] Ooooh Vac-you-you-me Waking up dead From above Vac-you-you-me Waking up dead
[Bridge] I feel the suction rev As I waltz the vacuum arm End to end it sucks itself And pulls me with its charm
Morning in a vortex And when I squint my eyes You peek inside my empty shell A memory in disguise
Tree outside is upside down Head hangs off the bed They say I'm just a pair of lungs Connected by a thread
I'm presuming The end is looming
In trouble when I put my foot down Try to have a voice In trouble when I climb back down Let you have your choice
My soul got sucked out in the ether Just about half past nine My cars went out drinking in closing time (?)
[Chorus] Vac-you you me Vac-you-you me Ooooh Vac-you-you me Waking up dead Vac-you-you me Waking up dead Waking up dead Ooooh Vac-you-you me Waking up dead Waking up dead
