  {music includes constant `tick-tock` clock sound}  
    
  (Midnight, one more night without sleepin`)  
  (Watchin` till the mornin` comes creepin`)  
  (Green door, what`s that secret you`re keepin?)  
    
  There`s an old piano  
  And they play it  
 hot behind the green door  
  Don`t know what they`re doin`  
  But they laugh a  
 lot behind the green door  
  Wish they`d let me in  
  So I could find  
 out what`s behind the green door  
    
  (Knocked once, tried to  
 tell them I`d been there)  
  (Door slammed, hospitality`s thin there)  
  (Wonder just what`s goin` on in there)  
    
  Saw an eyeball peepin`  
  Through a smoky  
 cloud behind the green door  
  When I said `Joe sent me`  
  Someone laughed out  
 loud behind the green door  
  All I want to do is  
 join the happy crowd behind the green door  
    
  (Midnight, one more night without sleepin`)  
  (Watchin` till the mornin` comes creepin`)  
  (Green door, what`s that secret you`re keepin?)  
    
  (Green door, what`s that secret you`re keepin?)  
    
  Green door!!
