The Basement Cats

Lyrics

We take our boats, out there I go
Today I die tomorrow
She won't know, and she won't care
But the last time that we met
She let me stare
I thought I might be one of her guys
I liked her perfume and her hair
And the snare in her eyes
But lords and babes alike
All turned with loathing
At one such as I
Sheep in wolves clothing
Clothing
Yep

I said I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore
So much for romance
Now we even the score
And I'm not gonna cry
When I see you again
I'm not gonna cry
But I guess it depends

And oh I knew
That you knew
Cause he knew
She knew
Oh I knew
That you knew
Cause he knew
She knew
I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore

We take our boats, and what a fright
This is something hard to do when money's tight
We take our boats, what do you care?
When she left me on my left knee I declared
I said I only wanna be forever where you are
I have no love for the stars
I wanna be your avatar
I only wanna be forever where you are
I have no love for the stars
I wanna be your avatar

I said I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore
So much for romance now we even the score
And I'm not gonna cry when I see you again
I'm not gonna cry but I guess it depends

I only wanna be forever where you are
I have no love for the stars
I wanna be your avatar
I only wanna be forever where you are
I have no love for the stars
I wanna be your avatar
I only wanna be forever where you are
I have no love for the stars
I wanna be your avatar

I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore
So much for romance
Now we even the score
And I'm not gonna cry when I see you again
I'm not gonna cry but I guess it depends

And oh I knew
That you knew
Cause he knew
She knew
Oh I knew
That you knew
Cause he knew
She knew

I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore
So much for romance
Now we even the score
And I'll say it again
Like I said it before
I don't wanna dance
Next to you anymore
