And the hole 

In the screen is barely big enough for you 

And not near enough for me to go 



And the whole damn complicated 

Situation could've been 

Avoided if I'd only shut the window 



CHORUS: 

And I may be leavin' myself open 

To a murder or a heart attack 

But I'm leavin' the back door open 

'Til you come back, 'til you come back 



And I may be movin' myself closer 

To a real untimely end 

But I'm leavin' the back door open 

'Til you come home again, 'til you come home again 



And I told 

The neighbors, I put pictures up 

And handed out some flyers at the show 



And the whole town speculating 

Situation could've been 

Avoided if I'd only shut the window 



CHORUS 



REPEAT CHORUS
