Uh, Zoom Zip Lyrics

Zoom zip and uh wake up, uh zoom zip

My eye like a noisegate the number 8 frustrate and I roll to the floor fruit
to the fruit to the core of a spheroid embedded in my skull the round the
zero the symbol of null and void and well I toyed with the concept of
vitamin B-12 the synapse the synapse it feeds itself on a nutrient
contained in sunlight the blink the lid the fight to snap open

Moving up to the double M 2000 I eat up a decade like a flan your turn of
the century turn it up turn it up clock seconds to the hour go and cash the
millenium Um Um and it hums like a migraine to the brain in the time yet
remaining but uh ah melancholy nonsense and I crack nouns brotherfuck
the verb tense

Recombination, then Viacom, Safeway

i can't believe nobody's commented on this song. i feel dumb because i'm not cool enough to know what this song means. i'm biased since i already know mike doughty was on drugs. so of course i'm going to think that's what it's about and how hard it is to wake up and realize that so much time out of your life has been spent away because of it. ?

i have no clue what it's about either, but the line uh zooooom zip just does it for me. such a chilled song :)

@luey_baby Been a long time, but just in case someone else looks this up:

Mike Doughty, the lyrics writer for Soul Coughing, spent years only writing lyrics that 'sounded right'. They didnt actually mean anything, it was more about the vocal inflections and how they interacted with the rest of the song. There, quite literally, is no meaning at all.
