You can′t escape now I′ve got you locked inside this room You know I tip good And soon, you will love me too
Don′t be upset now You know that I get angry too Don′t make me hurt you It′s true No one hears you in this room
This is what you get When you′re talking back baby I never bounce a check So give it up, baby Open up your eyes I want to watch you cry Come on, come on The camera′s on [x2]
Now I′m a changed man But as a boy I was so true The world can′t protect you It′s true Not like money will
You want some bread now? Just promise me You′ll never make me believe you It′s true No one hears you in this room
This is what you get When you′re talking back baby I never bounce a check So give it up, baby Open up your eyes I want to watch you cry Come on, come on The camera′s on
I came ′round to your front door your back door was locked Pushed your button, rang your bell, you didn′t hear me knock I saw your window open wide, so I crawled inside I ran to the top floor, but you were on the ground I was on my way up and you were going down
(chorus) Fire in the basement Burn me up, scream and shout Fire in the basement Only you can put it out
This strange sensation that I′m going through Sweet infatuation when I get next to you I know what it takes to be a man, you understand ′Cause when the sparks start flying you′ll never be the same You know I′ll hate to leave you girl but I′m so gald I came
(repeat chorus)
Smokey eyes burning bright Innocence lost, satisfy my appetite Surrender to the flame, what′s your name Let′s get down to business, how can you refuse Give this boy a helping hand, come on light my fuse
Basement Yeah Locked in the basement I’m so paranoid I’m all incased and I can’t escape And when I look up, mothers looking down And when I wake up, mothers not around
Cause if you want you can have Everything that I’ve got Cause if you want You can take it all away from me Away from me x 2
Nobodies perfect, but you just can’t see My life’s a circus that you don’t believe Your sayin’ something but not coming clean Now when I look up mothers livin she’s livin in her dreams Chorus
Cause if your unsatisfied well I’ll watch you wave goodbye Cause if you want you can take it all away from me
Please don’t come down and see me this way Please don’t come down I’m to afraid Please don’t come down and see me this way Please don’t come down well I’m to afraid... Chorus x 2
Cause if your unsatisfied well I’ll watch you wave goodbye Cause if you want you can take it all away from me...
