Open Up Said the World at the Door
Jeff Lynne
Can you believe no one has called anymore
Since the ball that was thrown in the spring
Brother, beware, nobody dare anymore
Since the days back when balls were the thing
Open up said the world at the door
Swimming around out in a hole in the ground
Til she finds what she lost years ago
In a nightdress, dirty old vest, she never rests
But the old folks at home never know
Open up said the world at the door
What are (? ) the heart, guess it's a part of the tale
And the feeling that's being within
Brother, beware, nobody dare anymore
Since the days back when balls were the thing
Open up said the world at the door
