[Verse 1: John Darnielle]
Hey don't touch the door
Because the door will surely kill you
I hear you saying that you don't see what I mean
Well you better look again
[Verse 2]
Stop looking at the floor
Because the whole building's
Turning and turning and turning
And don't touch the door
Can't you see the door's burning?
[Verse 3]
And all at once
The street is filled with light
And all at once
The street is filled with sound
[Verse 4]
When I hold you I know
Our number's being called somewhere
Let them come on down
