  1. What Else Could I Do?

From the recording The Basement Cats

Lyrics

It was a warm sunny night, and the sky was gray
I can’t remember what I had that day
But all the spider monkeys and the basement cats
They couldn’t tell me where I was at
But you know it hurts me hurts me, to my soul
When you said I didn’t uh get the role
Because I knew, what else could I do?
What else could I say? I’ve got to get away
Oh I’ve got to get away

So now I’ll sit on my throne, no wait it’s just a chair
Delilah made me, she made me cut my hair
But now I get to wear a tie and I get to wear a hat
Delilah still makes me sleep upon the mat
So trust me trust me when I say
It’s all worth it at the end of the day
In the basement with the basement cats, where I get to play
Because I knew, what else could I do?
What else could I say? Oh I’ve got to get away

Oh yeah this song means nothing, unless it does to you
How could I ever possibly know what you’re going through?
Whether the times were good, whether the times were bad
They were the only times that we ever had
And I would like to look back in a year
And know that I was so completely here
And that I knew, what else could I do?
What else could I say? I’ve got to get away
Oh I’ve got to get away

“A piercing sound reminiscent of your first used record player running through a 10 watt practice amp. It’s a sound The Basement Cats, a rock n' roll band from Holyoke, Massachusetts, have been perfecting since their inception in early 2010. This sound, coupled with The Basement Cats boisterous, raucous live show, is a force strong enough that, upon their sets completion, it’ll make you get up from your chair, step outside, shed a single tear, and declare to yourself: “That’s fresh, that’s genuine, that’s potent, that’s Rock n' Roll.”
