There was a full moon shining on the night of my birth
The night that I was damned to live upon this Earth
I didn't ask to be here I was just forced out
Into a concrete crib where I just thrashed about
Born in the basement
Living on dog food
I bet the neighbors wondered what the hell was that noise
I just was not one of your average neighborhood boys
I bet their neck hairs crawled when I cried out you see
I didn't get no milk - Mom died delivering me
Born in the basement
Living on dog food
Yeat it was pouring rain when I came into this world
Yeah I lived next to a sewer and I was not very thrilled
I reared my ugly head and I let out a scream
Yeah I ate dirty rats and I drank gasoline
Born in the basement
Living on dog food
