In a corner of the basement
In a box of old LPs
You dug up the truth, the gospel
Oh, don't roll your eyes at me

Far outside the mainstream fashions
A movement few would understand
A message unlike any other
With a goal to shake the land

Let me take you back in time
(Not so long ago)
A story for the lucky few

And the crowds they weren't so big

Never scored a mainstream hit

But the fans came from all over
For a sound heard nowhere else
And they still carry it with them
Ever loyal to the end

Maybe one day
You'll have your time as well
Maybe one day
You'll have your time as well
Maybe one day
You'll have your time as well
Maybe one day…….
