The Party in the Basement

There was a party in the basement
And you were wearing the finest blackout I’ve ever seen
With just a stumble down the staircase
You grabbed a can of red spray paint
And left a message for the morning
You left a message for the morning

And now I’m finding that I’m waking up
Now I’m seeing that we’re breaking up
Between it all, this alcohol
Should kill us before we begin
Now I’m feeling like I’m drunk enough
Now I’m feeling just fucked up enough
To say between it all, this alcohol
Should kill us before we begin again

There was a party in the basement
My band was playing the best Motley Crue covers you ever heard
You took a tumble down the staircase
Saw you kiss everyone on the lips
Gave us something to talk about in the morning

Now I’m finding that I’m waking up
Now I’m seeing that we’re breaking up
Between it all, this alcohol
Should’ve killed us before we began
Now I’m feeling like I’m drunk enough
Feeling just fucked up enough
To say between it all, this alcohol
Should kill us before we begin again
