I’m at the coffee machine in my local ShopRite when the overhead music segues from “Knock Three Times” to “Knock on Wood.” Remembering the Dylan thread, I say “What’s next? Knocking on Heaven’s Door.”
The guy standing next to me says “I Hear You Knocking.”
I want to put together a jukebox musical called “KNOCK-KNOCK.” I need some more songs about knocking.
Knock knock, who’s there?
Could this be love that’s calling?
The door is always open wide.Knock knock - who’s there?
Now as the night is falling,
Take off your coat and come inside.
Hmm, I thought I had about all of Spike’s stuff, but I don’t remember that one. However, there is a PDQ Bach piece consisting of knock knock jokes as recitative on his Oedipus Tex album.
I’m pretty sure that on one Prairie Home Companion joke show there was a knock knock joke song.
