作词 : Kate Anderson/Elyssa Samsel

I'm just saying you're not at all avoiding

what you're really upset about, right?

And that's great. Even if you were avoiding it,

I'd say that's great too, 'cause you're great.

When problems come a-knocking And it seems like they are stalking

You pretend like you're not home

'Cause everything is peachy

If you're staying outta reachy

So pretend like no one's home

Oh, knock, knock No one's home

Nope, nope, no one's home

Who's there?

Homework?

Oh, God. Not home.

Sorry, I can't answer Just a plant, sir

No one's home

I get it. It's like the time my fish all died,

and I pretended they were alive

because I didn't feel like cleaning out the tank.

That putrid smell was worth not having to deal with it.

Memories.

When life gets kinda real And you just do not feel like dealin'

That's okay 'cause no one's home

Be a shut-in, be a hermit

Take your social life and burn it

And pretend that no one's home

Oh, knock, knock

On vacation

Knock, knock

Wrong location

Who's there?

Chores.

No way. Not home.

Sorry, gone forever Come back never 'cause--

No one's home

Nope, no one's home

Go away, ay, no one's home

This feels a little too easy

Maybe I need a dose of reality

Mom, make me feel Like you unfairly favor Cole

You know that you're my special baby

Hey, Dad. Let's hear how honeybees are dying

No way, sweetie They're probably just hiding

Cole, come on, remind me How I almost killed my boyfriend

When you poisoned him with nuts?

Like a fatal kissing klutz?

I'd say that took guts And I wanna be you

This feels weird.

Feelings?

When your feelings come a-calling And they're growing and snowballing

Let 'em know that no one's home

Just turn off all the lights And cover all the doors with spikes

They will know that no one's home

Oh, knock, knock No one's home

Yell out,"Go away" Put up a sign

That says you're being fumigated

Bed bugs

Toxic waste

Haunted house

Caution tape

Anything to keep out real life

If you act like no one's home

Won't you end up all alone?

No.

Just move your family underground

And live off rabbits that you found

Idle hands make idle minds So make some friends to pass the time

If folks complain about the stench Just spray perfume, be like the French

You'll start to miss the outside world So ask for updates from the squirrels

And that'll keep you going While the winds of change are blowing

Till you die when no one's home

So that's why we encourage you

To live like no one's home
