Lyrics

Five miles out of London on the Western Avenue Must have been a wonder when it was brand new Talkin' 'bout the splendor of the Hoover factory I know that you'd agree if you had seen it too It's not a matter of life or death But what is, what is? It doesn't matter if I take another breath Who cares? Who cares? Green for go, green for action, from Park Royal to North Acton Past scrolls and inscriptions like those of the Egyptian age And one of these days the Hoover factory Is gonna be all the rage in those fashionable pages Five miles out of London on the Western Avenue Must have been a wonder when it was brand new Talkin' 'bout the splendor of the Hoover factory I know that you'd agree if you had seen it too It's not a matter of life or death But what is, what is? It doesn't matter if I take another breath Who cares? Who cares?
