We got a problem we can't get around
It's gotten too big to just tear down
We built a wall outta thin air
Now I'm over here and you're over there

I'm afraid there ain't no two ways to it
This could be our undoin'
Can't raise the ceilin' can't lower the floor
The only thing left is to build a door

A door ain't nothin'
But a way to get through a wall, that's all
A window won't work
And a ladder stretched that tall, it might fall
You get a hammer and I'll get a saw
And we'll give this wall what for
What we need between you and me is a door

We might get sweaty, might get dirty
Couple of splinters would be well worth it
We'll hang it right here level and plumb
Then shake hands on a job well done

Once the door is standin' open
We get a little communication goin'
We'll reach out and the next thing you know
This wall will come down like Jericho

A door ain't nothin'
But a way to get through a wall, that's all
A window won't work
And a ladder stretched that tall, it might fall
You get a hammer and I'll get a saw
And we'll give this wall what for
What we need between you and me is a door
