[Verse 1]
Dream, a little dream
All about the basement scene
I don't wanna wake up, I don't wanna wake up
I don't wanna wake up, no
[Verse 2]
If you've seen the light turn gold
Come out tonight and we'll get stoned
I don't wanna get old, I don't wanna get old
I don't wanna get old, no
[Verse 3]
Dream, a little dream
About your friends and their endings
Now I wanna wake up, I wanna wake up
I wanna wake up now
[Verse 4]
It could be the death of me
Knowing that my friends will not remember me
I wanna get old, I wanna get old
I wanna get old
[Bridge]
In the Bluffs they know my name
In the Bluffs they know
In the Bluffs they know my name
In the Bluffs they know
In the Bluffs they know my name
In the Bluffs they know
In the Bluffs they know my name
Oh, oh, shit
Basement Scene was written by Bradford Cox.
Basement Scene was produced by Henry Barbe.
Deerhunter released Basement Scene on Tue Sep 28 2010.
With Halcyon Digest there was a competition between me and him [producer Ben Allen] over the sound of the record. I would do things like… I insisted we record “Basement Scene” in an actual basement, and I insisted that a 14-year-old boy—one of the engineer’s sons—engineer it entirely.
