We took the freeway out of town
We found a place to settle down
We bought a driveway and a swing set and a dog
You've got your very own bathroom
I've got my very own workshop in the basement
We sit around staring at the wall-to-wall
Take field trips to our favorite mall
Waiting for the day when all the kids grow up and leave us here

If you need me, I'll be downstairs with the Shop Vac
You can call but I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on
For heaven's sake it's really loud with the Shop Vac on
But you'll be OK, 'cause you'll be upstairs with the TV
You can cry and I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on

We hung a flag above the door
Checked out the gourmet grocery store
I bought a mower I can ride around the yard
But we haven't got real friends
And now even the fake ones have stopped calling
Maybe if you forget to hide the keys
I'll take a ride to Applebee's
Come home drunk on daiquiris
And throw up on the neighbors' lawn

If you need me, I'll be downstairs with the Shop Vac
You can call but I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on
For heaven's sake it's really loud with the Shop Vac on
You'll be OK, you'll be upstairs with the TV
You can cry and I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on

I like the Starbucks here that's better than the other one
'Cause the other one's not as good
They really need to put a light there 'cause it's hard to turn
It's hard to make a left turn

And when it's time to go to bed
I'm still awake inside my head
Floating up above the house and looking down
I guess I gotta go back there
I guess there never was any other answer
And as the freeway hums the cars go by
The headlights roll across the sky
Many miles away and I can see them speeding through the dark

If you need me, I'll be downstairs with the Shop Vac
You can call but I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on
For heaven's sake it's really loud with the Shop Vac on
You'll be OK, 'cause you'll be upstairs with the TV
You can cry and I prob'ly won't hear you
Because it's loud with the Shop Vac on

>Well, that could be a great story.

We'll have to disagree about this, I guess. I mean, I'm not necessarily a my-way-or-the-highway kind of guy when it comes to the arts, but, bleh.

>But it's not really a UF story, is it?

You're right about this, though.
