"Vital Signs" is a song by progressive rock trio Rush from their album Moving Pictures. The song is heavily influenced by reggae styles. This influence would carry on into their next studio album, Signals. The song was released as the final single from the album. It has appeared in Rush's set lists as current as that of Rush in Rio. A live version of "Vital Signs" appears as the B-side on their "New World Man" single (Mercury #76179, US edition).

Words by Neil Peart, Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson

Unstable condition: A symptom of life, In mental, And environmental Change

Atmospheric disturbance --- The feverish flux, Of human interface And interchange

The impulse is pure ---
Sometimes our circuits get shorted, By external interference.

Signals get crossed ---
And the balance distorted, By internal incoherence
A tired mind become a shape-shifter, Everybody need a mood lifter, Everybody need reverse polarity

Everybody got mixed feelings, About the function and the form, Everybody got to deviate, From the norm

An ounce of perception ---
A pound of obscure, Process information, At half speed

Pause:
Rewind --- replay ---
Warm memory chip Random sample ---
Hold the one you need

Leave out the fiction ---
The fact is;
This friction, Will only be worn by persistence

Leave out conditions ---
Courageous convictions,
Will drag the dream into existence

A tired mind become a shape-shifter
Everybody need a soft filter
Everybody need reverse polarity

Everybody got mixed feelings
About the function and the form
Everybody got to elevate
From the norm
