My cat is afraid of the vacuum cleanerThe way it goes, "Vroom, vroom, vroom"Vroom, vroom, vroomVroom, vroom, vroomMy cat is afraid of the vacuum cleanerThe way it goes "Vroom, vroom, vroom".And the way it makes calls in the middle of the nightTo shadowy men with underworld connectionsIt's conversations sound innocent enough,But then, why is it whisperingAnd saying things that are obviously codesLike, "Go to the laundry and pick up my shorts"?It's a vacuum cleaner, it doesn't wear shorts.But it does have a secret hidden roomFull of instruments of torture from ancient timesThat were stolen from a little-known Idaho museum.And on the wall in the secret roomIs a picture of actor Anthony HopkinsTaken from the movie "Silence of the Lambs",The one where he wears the scary mask.And next to the picture of Anthony HopkinsIs a picture of the vacuum cleanerIn the same scary mask, but a smaller version.It's cute in a way, but in other ways no.And also on the walls are some scribbled words.SongtexteIncoherent paranoid rantsWritten in a language called VacuumeseDerived from French and the operating manualOf a 1972 Electrolux.And what is written on those wallsIn the language known as VacuumeseSends icy chills up my little cat's spineAnd makes it toss and turn at night.But the thing about the vacuum cleanerThat scares my cat the very most,That makes it wake in a cold, cold sweatAnd haunts its days and haunts its nightsAnd makes it jump at the slightest noise...Is the way it goes, "Vroom, vroom, vroom".Vroom, vroom, vroomVroom, vroom, vroomVroom, vroom, vroom Aus Songtexte Mania
