Ohh, now tell me where can you party, child, all night long?

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah.

Oh where can you go when your money gets low?

In the basement, whoa down in the basement

And if a storm is taking place, you can jam and still be safe

In the basement, down in the basement, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah


Where can you dance to any music you choose?

In the basement, whoa down in the basement

Oh, you got the comforts of home, a nightclub too.

In the basement, whoa down in the basement.

There's no cover charge or fee and the food and drinks are free,

In the basement, down in the basement


Come on child, you can do it, you can do it, yeah


Guitar lead

In the basement, that's where it's at (x4)

In the basement, in the basement, in the basement

that's where its at


(You tell ‘em)

Where they don't , where they don't check you age at the door,

In the basement, whoa down in the basement

Barracuda and ??? ‘til your feet get sore

In the basement, whoa down in the basement

Do any dance you want to do, there's no one under you

In the basement, I know it, you tell ‘em oh-h-h-h I wanna go


In the basement, that's where it's at (x4)
