Three Sharp Knocks Lyrics

Knock, knock, knock

Will you open the door

Invite him in

And beg him for more

Close your eyes, count to ten

Pray to God you won't wake up again

Haunted by this apathy

Infiltrated by what you cannot see

We're divided like oceans and sky

Hating them all

Berating them all

Just who is the enemy

(Let me in, let me in, let me in)

Evil encompassing hearts

Keeping us at odds, holding us apart

We think we know it all

What is love, what is sin

All of us tired from the drugs we're fed

Please wake up from this hell we're in

The closet door creaking open

Don't say a word

But in the silence

You know it has heard

He's here with you

Now you can't decide

Whether to tell him to go

Or run and hide

It's fight or flight

Do or die

You will be afraid

When he eats your insides

Ba-ba-dook-DOOK-DOOK

Close the book

Don't let him inside

He's devoid of life

He'll consume you alive

(Let me in, let me in, let me in)

Evil encompassing hearts

Keeping us at odds, holding us apart

We think we know it all

What is love, what is sin

All of us tired from the drugs we're fed

It's time to wake up from this hell we're in

Don't let him in

With his sneaky grin

He's quite a kook

That Mister Babadook
