The cat is in a corner
Of pur and pan
Mom, I feel a calm condensation
Cast from his eye

He's on to me
Yeah, he's on to me
Uh huh, uh huh

The static of the city
A shot into the vein
I know the night I was in the alley
The need to know came

I got that rush in my head
I got a boy in the bed
Uh huh, uh huh

Oh, oh vertigo
It got me in
And I don't want to let it go
Yeah

La la la la la la la (hey)
La la la la la la la
La la la la la la la
Ah ah ah ah ah

There's ruby castles in the air
They're ticking like a bomb
You chase a clinical condition
I wanna get it off

Get my legs in the sea
I wanna swim in the sea
Uh huh, uh huh

There's one kind of lover
That don't do a thing
Don't even give him attention
It will never change

They come out of the box
In the new machine
And the way you fly
In a new dream
The wisdom in your eyes is alright

Oh, oh vertigo
It got me in
And I don't want to let it go
Yeah

I'm in vertigo
Turnin'
And I don't want to let it go

The storm is above the cloud
The rainbow seems to know
It's over now
I hang beneath the bells
And swing within the swears
Oh oh, oh oh

Oh, oh vertigo
It got me
And I don't want to let it go
Woah

I'm in vertigo
Yeah
And I'm turnin' out of control
