Basement El Dorado Songtext
I′d like to think there's a reason for all this suffering
I′d like to believe in a life with a Disney ending
And then one day, I'll shake the big hand up there painting the celluloid
Where there's plenty of vacant apartments for the broken and unemployed
There′s a shimmering Atlantis by the oil rig
There′s a panoramic Heaven on the studio lot
Every second that I wait's another second I can′t wait 'til I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that′ll take me there
Now I take it in stride 'cause I know this world is just on loan
And I politely start queuing up to meet my chaperone
There′s a basement El Dorado in the pawnshop
And there's a Shangri-La at the bottom of a landfill
Every second that I wait's another second I can′t wait ′til I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that'll take me there
Won′t you take me?
I′d like to believe in a life with a Disney ending
And then one day, I'll shake the big hand up there painting the celluloid
Where there's plenty of vacant apartments for the broken and unemployed
There′s a shimmering Atlantis by the oil rig
There′s a panoramic Heaven on the studio lot
Every second that I wait's another second I can′t wait 'til I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that′ll take me there
Now I take it in stride 'cause I know this world is just on loan
And I politely start queuing up to meet my chaperone
There′s a basement El Dorado in the pawnshop
And there's a Shangri-La at the bottom of a landfill
Every second that I wait's another second I can′t wait ′til I make it there
Must be some kind of love
Must be some kind of love that'll take me there
Won′t you take me?
