KNOCK ON MY DOOR

by Duncan Lincs

/

lyrics

VERSE 1:
WE ARE ISLANDS IN THE SAME STREAM
BUT THE TIDE IS STEADY RISING
PARTING RIVERS CAN BE SUCH SWEET SORROW
EVEN MOSES HAD TO LET HIS STAFF GO

WE ARE WAKING FROM THE SAME DREAM
THE NEWS IS ALL BRAN WITH NO RAISIN
HOARDING QUIVERS FULL OF CUPID'S ARROWS
THEY BLAME THE TARRIF NOT THE PHARAOHS

CHORUS 1:
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK ON MY DOOR
I CAN BE YOUR BARBER AND YOUR GROCERY STORE
LET ME BE A NEIGHBOUR IN YOUR COLDEST HOUR
I CAN FROST YOUR TIPS AND LEND YOU SOME FLOUR

VERSE 2:
WE ARE ACTORS IN THE SAME SCENE
MAKING STUDIES OF PERSONA
CLEANING HANDS IN OUR WORK PAJAMAS
EVEN SHAKESPEARE LIVED FOR DRAMA

WE ARE STARING AT THE SAME SCREEN
FROM VENETO TO THE RONA
BANGING PANS LIKE A FOOL MADONNA
THEY’LL NAME THE CURE AFTER THEIR MOMMA

BRIDGE:
SPEED READING THE DECAMERON
WHAT’S HAPPENING BROTHER? WHAT’S GOING ON?
BACK TRACKING LIKE SOME OLD CAM’RON
HOW DO WE CARE FOR ONE ANOTHER? HOW DO WE CARRY ON?

CHORUS 2:
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK ON MY DOOR
I CAN BE YOUR LAWYER AND YOUR RECORD STORE
LET ME BE A NEIGHBOUR WHEN IT ALL GOES WRONG
I CAN CROSS YOUR T’S AND SING YOU A SONG

OUTRO:
KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK ON MY DOOR
