The tide crashed on the shore
As he held her in his arms
They swore they would stay together
And forever more
From this moment on
As they made their wedding vows
He couldn't know how life would change
Oh, love was blind for now
Hey, but knock, knock, knock
Put the chain on the door
She's back again and now she wants more
Knock, knock, knock
The thief's back to steal
The shirt off my back, even my next meal
I'm not living anymore
I'm just breathing day to day
Everything I had has gone
She has taken it away
Heaven's door has opened
And it's looked me in the eye
And there is no Mt. Olympus
Just before you die
Knock, knock, knock
She's got the house and the car
The only thing left is my old guitar
Knock, knock, knock
Her foot's in the door
The shirt's off my back and now she wants more
And tonight on T.V
Well they show the happy pair
I almost wept with laughter as some fool caught
The bouquet the bride threw in the air
At the final curtain call, in the neon light display
I see all the ugly scars that illuminate my day
And hail the promised land, as it upped and gone to bed
Bleeding hearts and mothers weeping, sometimes I wish her dead
Hey, but knock, knock, knock
Put the chain on the door
She's back again and now she wants more
Knock, knock, knock
The thief's back to steal
The shirt off my back, even my next meal
Knock, knock, knock
She's got the house and the car
The only thing left is my old guitar
Knock, knock, knock
Her foot's in the door
The shirt's off my back and now she wants more
