[Spoken Intro]
Hey, yo, Mo, open up the door, man
I'm sorry, baby, open up the door
You got these dogs out here, they gon' bite me
Poodles and rabbits and all of it
Open the door man, I'm sorry, man

[Verse 1: Monica & (Missy Elliott)]
It's funny how the tables turn

[Verse 2: Monica & (Missy Elliott)]
Boy, it's a dangerous game
To try and play a chick like me (Uh)
Wanna go out and do ya thing

So do just what you want
Any time that you really like
I put a payment on my place
You'll be sleeping alone tonight
[Chorus: Monica & {Missy Elliott}]
So don't you, knock knock knock (Knockin', oh)

{Uh-huh, so, so} (Yeah)
[Verse 3: Monica & {Missy Elliott}]
I used to be "So Gone"
You were someone I could lean on
My life support system
And I thought I couldn't breathe, uh-uh
When you used to leave, yup yup (Yeah) {Oh}
I see you got your clean on
Big chains, gold teeth and your gleam on
All night, wanna be gone
Wanna tell me stay home like I got a—uh!—ring on {Woo}
Now you say I'm not your wife, right? Right? {Uh}
So why should I be chillin', goodnight goodnight {Uh}
Now pack up my things for a flight {Oh}

So don't come knockin' at my door {Yeah!}
I got company coming 'round four {Uh-uh}
So, whoa, heh-heh, yeah {Ooh}
[Chorus: Monica & {Missy Elliott}]
I don't want you calling me no mo'
Knock knock knock {Oh}
Stop knockin', don't come knockin' on my door

Ooh, ooh, uhh, ooh-ooh, uhh

Ooh-ooh, uh (Changed my locks) ooh-uh (To my crib)
Don't come knockin' on my door, oh (Can't come in, oh) Oh
I don't want you calling me no mo'
Don't come knockin' on my door (Changed my locks, to my crib)
Don't come knockin' on my door (Can't come in, uh) Ooh
I don't want you calling me no mo'
[Outro: Monica & Missy Elliott]
Hey, this Monica, leave a number after the beep
Hey, yo, Mo, pick up the phone, man
This old raggedy cell phone sounding like an old alarm clock, old switchboard line phone. Do you even have call waiting on this joint, man? Call me back, man, you're late for the studio. Dismissed
