Lyrics

Jeff Scott Watson calling
It's 12:11 on Friday evening and you better give me a call tonight
And I'm damn pissed about the noise going on downstairs
I've called the police already, and I'm damn pissed
You and I better have a face-to-face in the next twelve hours
Or I'll continue to call the police every time
That band plays down there
You call me, fast
Bye
Well, his is the place you face the music
I demonstrate an altered state
We're the black light shining on the boombox
I rush the show to the underground spot
From P.M. to A.M., you are and i am
Choking on smoke below the coliseum
Not a soft shoe, 'cause i wear the new dance
Scoping the girls with the Shrinky-Dink Pants
Milk crate steady, mic check one-two
Feedback, shellac, about to break on through
I broadcast by a radio station low
Downstairs at the basement show
Downstairs at the basement show
Now get down
Now get down
Well I'll mark the "X" on the party map
A Flying V, peavy sonic attack
The cops are here if you believe the rap
I'll take a five-finger deal on the silver tap
Well I'll pull my hat down take the stairs down
Getting together, in with the out crowd
You got the brew, we got the time
So I'm skipping everybody in the bathroom line
Robot moves on a wild rumpus
Standing up front where the stacks is thumpin'
I broadcast by a radio station low
Downstairs at the basement show
Downstairs at the basement show
Now get down
Now get down
Turntables goin' 'round and 'round
Turn -turn -turntables -tables goin' 'round and 'round
*Exactly*
Turntables goin' 'round -'round -'round
The -the highest purpose is to have no -no -no purpose at all
Well I'm keeping it on, going all night long
Clearing the six-foot on the front lawn
A bottleneck check your mic marinade
I come late to the masquerade
To the sweatbox, a-dirty kneesocks
And I'm going through the back when the front door's locked
I broadcast by a radio station low
Downstairs at the basement show
Downstairs at the basement show
Downstairs at the basement show
Downstairs at the basement show
Now get down
Thank you, thank you, thank you
