Lyrics

Listen, and I’ll tell you a tale
About the days of no avail
And Rocky, a basement cat
Who at the right time and place was at

Rocky used to live in a tree
Yeah and Rocky said
Man I’ve got to flee I’ve got to go
Rocky went and he jumped the fence
And that it where we gave our two cents
Nathaniel said hey look at my shoe
And Rocky said that’s what I’ll do

Then we went and we made Rocky a box
And Rocky said hey, this rocks
But when the people up and down the street
Saw little Rocky standing at their feet

They said I’ve been here 15 years before
And I’ve never seen a beast walking through that door
But that cat of yours he’s being awful loud he’s
Running up the walls and stirring up the crowd
And I’m trying to be quiet, I’m trying to be cool
I’m trying not to come off like a total tool
But I can’t, no more

So we said hey Rock
Why don’t you come to the basement
Yeah and you can be, our basement cat
Rocky said what else can I do?
You know sometimes I get so damn blue
So yes I will follow through
And I will be a basement cat like you
And we can all sing

Rocky he is a basement cat
He likes to live in a basement
Rocky, he is a basement cat
And he likes to live
In my sister's basement

One day, Rocky got a jetpack
And he flew away, into space
Rocky flew away into space
So far away from the human race
Yeah and on that day I cried
It was like a part of me had died

One day, Rocky’s gonna return
To the basement where we’ll learn
His plans to take over the world
And if he’s feeling lucky, the universe
In those days Rocky will be king
And everybody
Everybody
Everybody
Everybody’s gonna sing

Rocky he is a basement cat
He likes to live in a basement
Rocky, he is a basement cat
And he likes to live
In my sister's basement

Rocky he is a basement cat
He likes to live in a basement
Rocky, he is a basement cat
And he likes to live
In my sister's basement

Rocky he is a basement cat
He likes to live in a basement
Rocky, he is a basement cat
And he likes to live
In my sister's basement
