This song represents Miss Honey’s fear to talk with Miss Trunchbull about Matilda. Miss Honey, in the next scene, says that Matilda should be placed in the top form with the eleven-year-olds for her being so clever and “older” compared to the others at her classroom.
[MISS HONEY]
Knock on the door, Jenny. Just knock on the door
Don't be pathetic!
Knock on the door, Jenny. There's nothing to fear
You're being pathetic!
It's just a door. You've seen one before
Just knock on the door
Look at you trying to hide, silly
Standing outside the principal's office like a little girl
It's just pathetic!
Oh! Right
Look at you hesitating. Hand's shaking
You should be embarrassed. You're not a little girl
It's just pathetic
Knock on the door, Jenny. What are you waiting for?
Just knock on the door...
Perhaps I'll wait. She's probably having a meeting or something And won't want to be interrupted. If anything, caution in these Situations is sensible. One should avoid confrontation when Possible. I'll come back later, then!
But this little girl...
This miracle...
Knock on the door, Jenny. Just knock on the door
Don't be pathetic!
[three knocks]
[MISS TRUNCHBULL]
Enter!
