Now I Want to Hoover My Brain Clean

Spots of blood on the basin
You never let me in on the conversation
You were having with yourself
You never know what might have helped
Now I want to hoover my brain clean

I don't need these half-remembered verses
"Down in Mexico" by The Coasters
"Sh-Boom" by The Chords
The Cadillacs singing "Speedoo" of course
The little hairs on your arm
That I stroked even while I slept
The little kisses that I kissed on your neck
Now I want to hoover my brain clean

I used to be the most argumentative little man
I used to be argumentative and I still am
But you, you calmed my mind
When you took my hand
You were so kind
Now I want to hoover my brain clean
Now I want to hoover my brain clean
