My Doorbell

(music & lyrics by Jack White)

 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it yeah

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it 

Yeah I been thinkin' about my doorbell 

Oh, well 

 

Well women and children need kisses 

Not the man in my life I know 

And I been going to mystery misses 

I respect the art of the show 

Take back what you said little boy 

And while you're at it take yourself back too 

Wonderin’ whatcha gonna do now

Whatcha gonna do about it? 

 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it yeah

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it baby

I been thinkin' about my doorbell 

Oh well 

 

You don't seem to come around 

Push your finger and make a sound 

Oh

You don't seem to come around 

Not since I said I knocked it down

 

Oh, yeah, oh 

Make a sound and I'll make you feel right

Right at home

Oh, right at home

 

No, no no no

Nobody got me waiting in pain

But how come it's so easy to you 

You don’t strike me as the type to be callous

But your words seem so obtuse 

But then again I know you feel guilty 

And you tell me that you want me again 

But I don't need any of your pity 

I got plenty of my own friends 

They're all above me 

 

And I've been thinkin' about my doorbell 

When they gonna ring it, when they gonna ring it, yeah

I've been thinkin' about my doorbell 

When they gonna ring it, when they gonna ring it, no

I've been thinkin' about my doorbell 

When they gonna ring it, when they gonna ring it, yeah

I been thinkin' about my doorbell 

 

Oh, well 

 

They don't seem to come around 

Push your finger and make a sound 

Woah

They don't seem to come around 

Maybe they’ll they'll knock it down 

 

Oh

 

Make a sound and I'll make you feel right 

Right at home 

Oh, right at home 

Oh

 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it 

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it baby

I'm thinkin' about my doorbell 

When ya gonna ring it, when ya gonna ring it 

I been thinkin' about my doorbell 

Oh well

 

(I think that was it!)
