For 40 days and 40 nights
All it did was rain
Flood, a flood, a flood outside my door again
Water, water everywhere
But not a drop to drink
Well, my babies says they're thirsty
Tell me, what am I to think?
Left down, left down below the basement
Left down, left down, down below the basement
Left down, oh, left down, down below the basement
Well, that is where they would find
Oh, where they would find
Oh, where they would find
All the lovers

Well Jesus Christ
And Heaven's Saints arrived on bedroom doors
Saving all the crying children
And those lonely, lonely whores
Why oh why, everywhere outside my door again
The shouts of joy, the shouts of heaven, the shouts of sin
Oh, left down, left down, down below the basement
Left down, oh, left down, down below the basement
Left down, oh, left down, down below the basement
That is where they would find
Oh, that is where they would find
That is where they would find
All the lovers

The clock turned on and we were waiting in a holocaust
Water, water, water, water rushing in
There's still no one
Not even one, not even one who dared to come
To save us from the wretched water
Or to save us from our sins
Well, left down, left down, down below the basement
Left down, left down, down below the basement
Left down, left down, down below the basement
But that is where they would find
But that is where they would find
But that is where they would find
