Someone’s Knocking
When you wake up in the morning
And I’m still scratching my head and yawning
Just leave your hair for now
Fantasise, don’t realise
That the telephone is in your eyes
Could be the wrong number somehow
And David Bailey’s a million miles from you now
Satisfy your every need
But for what it takes is what it leads
Could it be something for now?
And if you come and go again
Don’t lock me out just count to ten
Or leave the key with the woman on the second floor
And someone’s knocking
But the code says don’t answer the door
You know it’s probably the bill for the water in ’84
Oh did I forget to mention?
Do you know the water it doesn’t come with the tenancy
Who owns the water for you and me?
If you think you’re going to change your mind
Could give a week in advance, maybe a fifteenth chance
And it’s so funny when something turns out the way you want it to be
And someone’s knocking
But the code says don’t answer the door
You know it’s probably the bill for the water in ’84
And someone’s fallen from the window on the 16th floor
You know it’s probably the fella for the woman too early on the second floor
