==Lyrics==
Jack: Well, hello again
Katherine: Please go away
I'm working
Jack: A smart girl, eh?
Beautiful, smart, independent
I got no use for moonlight
Or sappy poetry
Love at first sight's for suckers
At least it used to be
Look, girls are nice, once or twice
Till I find someone new
But I never planned on someone like you
Don't come a-knocking on my door
Jack: (I got no use for moonlight)
You aren't welcome here no more
I should have known you stunk like yesterday's trash
Jack: (Or sappy poetry)
The night you stole my heart plus forty dollars in cash
Turns out my beau is just some bum
Jack: (Love at first sight's for suckers)
Turns out that 'love ain't blind' it's dumb
You never told the truth or worked a day in your life
Jack: (At least it used to be)
In fact, you're so revoltin', I feel bad for your wife
Katherine: (What are you doing?)
I won't be shaving your back anymore, no señor
Jack: (Quiet down, there's a show going on)
Don't come a-knocking on my door!
Katherine: (You are the most impossible boy) Jack: (Shh!)
Don't come a-knocking on my door!
Jack: (Ever)
Don't come a-knocking on my door!
Jack: (No, I never planned on someone like you)
