The Basement Song

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I hear something in the basement

When I shouldn't hear a sound

Voices speaking there in whispers

People moving stuff around

Now this was causing me to lose sleep

So I thought I'd check it out

But the dust out there was this deep

And there was no-one about

I think I'm starting to lose what grip I had

Think I'm starting to slide

Be so bright

You decide

And my power running out for the outside

I told the doctor of my symptoms

And he didn't say a word

I'm getting hives on my shoulders

And I feel tired like a small bird

And soon my friends are coming over

Cos I just lay there on the bedspread

Listening to voices in the basement

Or is that voices in my head?

I think I'm starting to lose what grip I had

Think I'm starting to slide

Be so bright

You decide

And my power running out for the outside

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

Yeah I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

Yeah I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

Ooh I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

I catch you later get me outta here, outta here

(I hear something in the basement)
