- The Basement Song Lyrics / with translationsI 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)
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?
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
