The Doorbell Rings
Merry Clayton

The doorbell rings and there you are
standing with a smile upon your face
you only come around when you can't
find someone else to take my place
I know it's wrong
but you're like a song
with the melody
that keeps coming back hard to me

I can't resist your charm
and I'm like a puppet dangling on a string
but someday soon that string will break
and I won't answer when that doorbell rings
you treat me cruel
but I'm no fool
and my heart and I
we're gonna go out and find another guy

You treat me cruel
but I'm no fool
and my heart and I
we're gonna go out and find another guy
