Thrashing Doves - Biba's Basement lyrics

One, two, a-one, two, three, four! She got a Persian rug outside her door She got a closet full of furs she's never worn Oh, and everywhere she moves She leaves a curse She said 'pity the plumage, baby, not the dying bird' Hey, you tell 'em now Something's ticking in Biba's basement (Something's ticking) Now she need a replacement (Something's ticking) For all the pretty summer clothes They're all going up in smoke, whoo! There was a demolition man in Stokey Town He said the first of May is the name We're moving uptown Well, I saw the line of little boxes on the floor, oh So I gave him a hand 'cause he reminded of old Guy Fawkes And he was a framer Something's ticking in Biba's basement (Something's ticking) Now's she's into litigation (Something's ticking) Everything she ever own It's all going up in smoke Whoo, yeah, wow But like all those things, you know it had to end And that demolition man Well, he was chained from foot to head (Everywhere she moves she leaves a curse) Whoa, I can sympathize With this kind of Antichrist (Everywhere she moves she leaves a curse) Oh, my, my, but one man sins And then we all get crucified Oh, no, no, no Something's ticking in Maggie's basement (Something's ticking) Now she'll need a replacement (Something's ticking) Everything she ever owned It's all going up in smoke Whoo, yeah! Oh...
