The Secret Basement


We discover a secret basement in your house.
It is far larger than anyone would have suspected.
The rooms are big and fine, with polished hardwood floors.
There's even a stage, and a shelf upon which sits a variety
of old indian musical instruments and percussion.
Everybody takes one and starts making music.
They sound wonderful and everybody jams.
I pick up a pair of colorful pointy maracas
The sound is rich and melodious
We wander from room to room
marvelling at what a great house this is.
