[Verse]
We had dated quite a while
When you decided to move in
I put myself in a race
There was no way I could win
[Verse]
Everyone was against it
They said we’re living in sin
But it was far more than that
I should’ve listened to them
[Verse]
Because first you quit your job
Then took control of my home
You would never let me speak
Made me feel like I’m alone
[Verse]
You took over the T V
I couldn’t watch all my shows
Well that was the final straw
Guess it’s time for you to go
[Chorus]
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
Now I’m not trying to offend
But the door is right there my friend
To make it clear and leave no doubt
I really want you to get out
So I think today is the day
We say goodbye and part ways
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse]
I could’ve lived with most things
And let the other things pass
Like the way you ate all my food
And were always passing gas
[Verse]
Every time you clipped your nails
They were all over the floor
And I couldn’t sleep at night
Because of how loud you’d snore
[Chorus]
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
Now I’m not trying to offend
But the door is right there my friend
To make it clear and leave no doubt
I really want you to get out
So I think today is the day
We say goodbye and part ways
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
[Verse]
You brought in your yappy dog
And tried to throw out my cat
But you learned oh so fast
That homie just don’t play that
[Verse]
The reason we lasted so long
Is because you’re really hot
So sexy on the outside
But you’re really a crack pot
[Chorus]
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
Now I’m not trying to offend
But the door is right there my friend
To make it clear and leave no doubt
I really want you to get out
So I think today is the day
We say goodbye and part ways
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
[Guitar Solo]
[Bridge]
It took a while to learn my lesson
And it took a while for me to see
That everything was about you
And you didn’t care about me
All that you wanted was control
Yeah you just wanted to be the boss
I was so stupid and let you in
And let you be my albatross
[Final Chorus]
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
Now I’m not trying to offend
But the door is right there my friend
To make it clear and leave no doubt
I really want you to get out
So I think today is the day
We say goodbye and part ways
So don’t let the doorknob hit ya
Back there where the good Lord split ya
