Verse 1:

E                                E
Look out here is hoover standing ugly at the door

D                              C
His pretty little tubing's getting sucked into the floor

    E                                E
The floor says this is dangerous the fridge is unaware

     D                          C
That everything it closes on is living without air


G# F# E G# F# E


Verse 2:

E                       E
Plug it in the wall and it works oven cries

D                          C
Little drops of grease all dirty brown but clean inside

E                     E
Big house small house tumbling around

      D                                 C
Its a nail the knives and forks and the table to the ground

E            E
Unplug Katie crush the orange

D               C
Wash the inside toast the peelings

E                 E
Break the kitchen play the windows

Play the floor the tiles and ceiling

Verse 3:

E
Mary's house is upside down

D                      C
She burnt the walls to make them brown

    E                             D
But left to her devices foiled by bluntness

          C
She would take pleasure
