OPPORTUNITY PLEASE KNOCK lyrics

The older I grow,

The older I grow,

With every tick of the clock,

While I wait for mister Opportunity to knock,

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, please knock!

You don't have to come

Beatin' on no drum,

You don't have to bam

Like a battering ram

And beat down my door,

Because I couldn't stand the shock!

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, please knock!

Don't come with a pash

Or a lightnin' flash,

Don't land in my room

With a thunderous boom,

Don't fly through my window

Like a house brick or rock;

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, please knock!

Knock and then enter,

You'll be more than welcome here!

Show me a chance that's just halfway fair,

And let me take it from there!

Opportunity, please,

Opportunity, please knock!

There's a ship out at sea

Comin' in for me;

I'm all set to go,

Knock and let me know,

And then get on your mock

And I will race you to the dock!

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, please knock!

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, just knock!

Opportunity, please, please!
