Would you think me "oh so modern" if I take you home? We're not living in a vacuum, let me take you home ----- It would not be mathematical it would not be comprehensible It would not be irresponsible I...wouldn't mind It would be somewhat ethereal two people one individual Containing all inconceivable I...wouldn't mind, if you're shy Yea Yea Yea Yea ---- I'll always value a kiss from you and occupy all your treasures too Tickle and hug you when we are through You...wouldn't mind We're spellbound by an experience no longer strangers no longer tense You must admit that it all makes sense You...wouldn't mind, if I'm shy Yea Yea Yea Yea

In the basement of heaven, with an old VCR, a pile of old tapes, and a tab at the bar. All the tunes I can muster, all the notes I can crib, Drink juice from a bottle, a high chair, a bib ----- There's a black-velvet Elvis, he's knee deep in our cheers, He OD'd while crying cholesterol tears. All the sockets are two-pronged, the lights at half-mast, A microwave oven, a shadow is cast. ----- The jukebox is shaped like a '62 Vette The music is funky, 'bout as good as it gets. Some crayola portraits are tacked on the wall, It's 6 6 and 6, says the clock down the hall. ----- The fireplace is ready, but ain't being used, The yearbook is silly, seemingly confused. I'm buried and waitin' just like old King Tut, In the basement of heaven, but waiting for what?
