Basement El Dorado

[Verse 1]
I'd like to think there's a reason for all this suffering
I'd like to believe in a life with a Disney ending
And then one day, I'll shake the big hand up there painting the celluloid
Where there's plenty of vacant apartments for the broken and unemployed

[Chorus]
There's a shimmering Atlantis by the oil rig
There's a panoramic Heaven on the studio lot
Every second that I wait's another second I can't wait till I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that'll take me there

[Verse 2]
Now I take it in stride 'cause I know this world is just on loan
So I politely start queuing up to meet my chaperone

[Chorus]
There's a basement El Dorado in the pawnshop
And there's a Shangri-La at the bottom of a landfill
Every second that I wait's another second I can't wait till I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that'll take me there
Won't you take me?
