Becky?s Basement

VERSE 1
Jammin? in Becky?s basement,
couple of beers,
end of the week.
Startin? to get impatient,
Played it six times,
and it still sounds weak.
And it?s hard to know,
if it?s worth the time.
It?s hard to know,
if we?ll get off this dime.

VERSE 2
Kicked out of Becky?s basement.
A homeless band,
of three guitars.
But, we?re trying to make a statement.
So, we?ll do what we can,
gonna be big stars.
Big you know,
extra dollar signs.
Gonna sell our souls,
In 4/4 time.

CHORUS
From the basement to the bar,
From the doghouse to the stars,
To the penthouse, to the top,
Ya, we?re never gonna stop.

VERSE 3
Back here in Becky?s basement,
acoustic jams,
reality.
It?s for our own entertainment.
And we?d do it for nothing,
we?d do it for free.
Free you know,
keep your dollar signs,
Cuz it soothes the soul,
and frees my mind.

CHORUS
From the basement to the bar,
never gonna be a star.
Never gonna see the top,
But, we?re never gonna stop.
We?re taking doghouse to the bar,
never gonna be a star.
Never gonna see the top,
But, we?re never gonna stop,
jammin? in Becky?s basement.
