Down in the Basement Lyrics by Viagra Boys

Street Worms (Deluxe Edition)

2018

You say that you can't communicate
Everything's wrong, everything that you say
She said "I can't speak to you
Feels like you're someone else for most of the time"
She told you she don't recognize her man
Everything's wrong, everything that you said
Now how you gonna explain to her what you're doing
When you're sneaking out late at night man?
Your secret's out
You're living a lie
How you gonna explain about your sex life to your wife?
Oh
Oh now your secret is out
She sees through your lies
She went through your cellphone
Saw how you been spending your time
She knows you're up to something, man
'Cuz she followed you last night
And now you're down in the basement
All dressed up in latex
One red light bulb hanging from the ceiling
And a live goat standing on a small chair in the middle of the room
Now how you gonna explain that, man?
Your secret is out
You've been living a lie
How you gonna explain your nasty sex life to your wife?
How you gonna explain that, man?
Now what you gonna do when you come home?
And you crawl up to the bedside with tears in your eyes
Say "Baby, take me back. I'm sorry, I'm not like that
I'm not a- I'm not like those other guys
I mean I was- I was just trying something new"
Ah! Hahahahaha!
How you gonna explain it?
What you gonna do, man?
Secret is out
You've been living a lie
How you gonna explain about your new sex life?
What you gonna say to your wife man?
How you gonna explain it?
(crying) I'm so sorry
How you gonna explain what you're doing late at night?
Ah ha ha!
