BASEMENT DOWN THE STAIRS*, or SCULLY GETS SNARKY
(Warped version of "Castle on a Cloud")

There is a basement down the stairs
Nobody there takes my advice
Aren't any stiffs for me to dice
Not in the basement down the stairs.

There is a man so full of crap
With Billy Clinton he compares**
With busty skanks he has affairs
All in the basement down the stairs.

There is a nameplate on the door
Taunts me each time I go inside
It smirks and tries to be Mulderesque
It says, "Give up. You'll never get a desk."

I know a place where science sucks
I know a place beyond all prayers
Someday I'll drown in my despairs
In that damn basement down the stairs.


*I am aware of the redundancy of this title. You got 
a problem with it? ;)

**No offense is intended toward your eminent president. 
And just to clarify, I used the comparison in reference 
to his being full of crap, NOT to his having affairs 
with busty skanks. Although, come to think of it...oh, 
just  shoot me.
