Basement Song

Back in the day we were kids on the playground
And everybody was trying to put us down
Seems like no one wanted us around
And even, baby, when we got home
There was one place we'd go to be alone
And even though we were on our own
It's okay
Another day spent in the basement
Another day spent wasting time
Another day spent in the basement
Another day spent wasting time
Yeah wasting time
One day evening
Sitting downstairs
We were sitting between the boxes and chairs
And she looks at me with those big blue eyes
And included me into her big surprise
She used to be the cutest girl in the world
But now she's looking at other girls
She used to be the cutest girl in the world
But now she's looking at other girls
She used to be the cutest girl in the world
But now she's looking at other girls
She used to be the cutest girl in the world
But now she's looking at other girls
What can I say
She was a curl in my coffee
Picked me up and then she dropped me
Now I can't even get her to talk to me
Another day spent in the basement
Another day spent wasting time
Another day spent in the basement
Another day spent wasting time
Yeah wasting time
Gotta find a girl
That I can please
I don't know what to do
'Cause I've been swinging with the same old chick
Since 1962
