Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[F]It must be wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from
everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting
outside your door
When you come home to
answer your telephone
[Bm]He who

[Verse 2]
knocks is he that missed
The [Bdim]'Don't[G]
Disturb' sign on the door
And [Bm]he who called,
is he that [Bdim]dropped
Invitations on [G]the floor
[Bm]Sitting down

[Verse 3]
and switching on
The [Bdim]wooden b[G]ox,
[Bdim]the door[G] is lo[Bdim]cked[G][Bdim]
[G]Swi[Bm]tching off the world outside
The [Bdim]party's [G]ove[Bdim]r for t[G]he night
It [F]must be

[Verse 4]
wonderful to live like you do
To have respect from
everyone that you know
To have surprises waiting
outside your door
When you come home to
answer your telephone
The [Bm]telephone starts

[Verse 5]
to ring, it rings
[Bdim]The 5- piece doorbel[G]l
[Bdim]starts t[G]o chime
The [Bm]liquid clock burst into song
It's [Bdim]out of [G]tune,[Bdim]
[G]the[Bdim] timing's wro[G]ng[Bdim][G]

The [Bdim]bubble bath, the door is locked
