Corner In The Third Floor Basement

Contributed by Franciswolf on Wednesday, 10th January 2007 @ 01:01:19 AM in AEST
Topic: selfstruggles

I’m the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you
Dusty from specs of frustration
Starting to question my own creation
I’m the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you

Bought a new music machine
That records pictures of James Dean
With great mileage for gasoline
I’d heard it was a new kind of invention
The future of the third dimension
James Dean on my music machine

On the desk by the tape dispenser
I see an unread love letter
It’s got red lacing and a cursive address
Nobody could ask for less
Even I know that and I’m the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you

Got a rocket of titanium mass
For a few moons to pass
I just hope the warp tunnels are fast
I could get away from the family den
And smoke hookah with a neighborhood Martian
Big metal titanium mass with a few moons to pass

The fan is spinning round
But there’s no one around
Still, I don’t mind the waste of electricity
There’s enough cold air for you and me
The hermit crab and the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you

I know a waste when I see a place
I’m the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you
No music machine or spacecraft is worth a friendly laugh
I’m the corner in the third floor basement
Neglected under you
