The Basement Song
What kind of beast did I build today?
One that makes kids run and mothers pray
Or one that just hides in my basement all day singing hey
Let me out
Just like the madmen of yesteryear
Conjuring demons of love and fear
And thinking they will be loved
'Cause I brought them here
I only investigate
The odd and the strange
It's all in the air
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you down there
So many things to say
All of these words
I wrote 'em down yesterday
And now they're absurd
Does the madman know he's mad
Is he combing the depths for a cure
To affliction he dare not throw away
We only investigate
The edge of the sane
It's all in the air
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you
Nobody loves you down there
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you down there
One that makes kids run and mothers pray
Or one that just hides in my basement all day singing hey
Let me out
Just like the madmen of yesteryear
Conjuring demons of love and fear
And thinking they will be loved
'Cause I brought them here
I only investigate
The odd and the strange
It's all in the air
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you down there
So many things to say
All of these words
I wrote 'em down yesterday
And now they're absurd
Does the madman know he's mad
Is he combing the depths for a cure
To affliction he dare not throw away
We only investigate
The edge of the sane
It's all in the air
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you
Nobody loves you down there
What you don't give disappears anyway
And it ain't fair
That nobody loves you down there
