LYRICS

five miles out of london on the western avenue
must have been a wonder when it was brand new
talkin' 'bout the splendour of the hoover factory
i know that you'd agree if you had seen it too

i know you'd agree with me

five miles out of london on the western avenue
must have been a wonder when it was brand new
talkin' 'bout the splendour 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
what is, what is
it doesn't matter if i take another breath
well, 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
one of these days the hoover factory
is gonna be all the rage in those fashionable pages, yes
fashionable pages

must have been a wonder
she must have been a wonder
when she was brand new
talkin' 'bout the splendour 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
it's gonna be all the rage, again
it's gonna be, it's gonna be all the rage, again
i'm gonna be all the rage, she is
i'm gonna be all the rage, in those fashionable pages
i'm gonna be all the rage

Q: Which ones did you bring in [to Strange Little Girls], knowing that you wanted to do?
T: All the ones that got rejected....Hoover Factory, Elvis Costello, but I didn't pull it off. Close, very close.
-- Tori; musiqqueen.com's Roundtable Interview, Nov. 6, 2001

"...[Tori and I] chatted about everything from Cindy Sherman to how Rattlesnakes snuck off the B-list and surprised everyone, and the B-side songs (After All, Only Women Bleed, Hoover Factory, and the one I hope she keeps for a greatest hits album or something) and so on."
