Why Does Our House Have a Basement? Lyrics

[THE RADIO]
Underwater

[NOAH]
Why does our house have a basement?
Underground is underwater
This is where the Great Plains end
In the Gulf of Mexico

[ROSE]
Go to sleep, now
Go to sleep

[NOAH]
Rose?

[ROSE]
Noah?

[NOAH]
If there's only water underground
Is my mother buried underwater?

[ROSE]
Don't be silly, she's safe and sound
They buried her above the ground
In a dry little house
Not even a mouse can get in, I bet

Listen, your daddy's clarinet

[NOAH]
Good night, Caroline

[CAROLINE]
Go to bed, Noah
Stop botherin' the night

[NOAH]
I'm glad you came back to work today
Sorry I hid from you

[CAROLINE]
Someday you won't
Someday we'll talk again
Just got to wait

[NOAH]
Will we be friends then?

[CAROLINE]
Weren't never friends

[MOON and (with THE WASHING MACHINE below)]
Household rules and small decrees
Unsuspecting bring us these secret, little tragedies

[THE WASHING MACHINE (with MOON above)]
Household rules and small decrees
Unsuspecting bring us these
Costly, quiet victories

[NOAH]
Caroline?

[CAROLINE]
Mm?

[NOAH]
What's it like underwater?
