[Intro]
Hello
[Verse 1]
What do you want?
You're irritating, go away, it's not my fault
That you're lonely
Just look around
I think you'll find that everyone has the same problem
This is not a real home
The walls are so thin, the neighbours listen in, keep the noise down
They're complaining
Humiliated
You were born and bred
Humble, to the spoon-fed
Why worry now? You're not dead yet
You've got a whole lifetime to correct it
You're wasting
Admiring, hating, this lot are not happy heroes
Just better actors
A-hundred-and-one dilations
And fifty-seven varieties
Outside with the empties
[Chorus]
Keep banging the door
Keep banging the door
Keep banging the door
I won't answer the phone
I won't answer the door
[Post-Chorus]
Reptilians
I won't let you in
If he knew we were here I'm sure he'd let us in
I won't let you in
[Instrumental]
(Alright, stop Nick)
[Verse 2]
This is not a real home
The walls are so thin
The neighbours listen in
Keep the noise down
They're complaining
I won't let you in
If he knew we were here
I'm sure he'd let us in
I won't let you in, I won't let you in, I won't let you in
Won't let you in
If he knew we were here I'm sure he'd let us in
I won't let you in
If he knew we were here I'm sure he'd let us in
[Chorus]
Keep banging the door
Keep banging the door
Keep banging the door
Keep banging the door
I won't answer the phone
I won't answer the door
Keep banging the door
