This Door Swings Both Ways

'This Door Swings Both Ways' is a song written by Estelle Levitt and Don Thomas and performed by Herman's Hermits of Manchester, England. Surprisingly serious thoughts behind a cheery, light melody. Recorded in 1966.

lyrics:

Everyone's life is bittersweet
It's a door that opens wide
And no man can call himself complete
Till he's seen it from both sides

This door swings both ways
It's marked 'In' and 'Out'
Some days you'll want to cry
And some days you will shout

This door swings both ways
It goes back and forth
In comes a southern breeze
Or a cold wind from the north

This door swings both ways
Lets in joy and pain
In comes the morning sun
And then the evening rain

This door swings both ways
Lets in dark and light
Every day you make the choice
To let in wrong or right

When shadows fall
You must prepare yourself for sunshine
For everything there is an end
And so my friend you must be brave

This door swings both ways
Which one will it be
Will we live in happiness
Or dwell in misery

This door swings both ways
Lets in earth and sky
Make the most of livin'
If you're not prepared to die
Make the most of livin'
If you're not prepared to die

Knock-a-Door ABC

The act of bored children knocking on a door, and reciting the alphabet, which ever letter they get to when the occupant opens the door, is the first letter of the Person they MUST ask for.

No real purpose but to impose serious embaressment on the knockee.

Kid 1: Who wants to play Knock-a-Door ABC?
Kid 2: ME!
*walks to a random door*
Kid 2: *Knock Knock* A B C D E F G H I J K *door opens*
Owner: Yes?
Kid 2: Hi is keith there please?
Owner: There is no keith that lives here.

blood donor

A person who shoots up drugs and uses the excuse 'I donated blood at Red Cross' when someone sees the track marks in their arms.

My friend kept getting questioned on his track marks so he told everyone 'I'm a blood donor. Me and my wife went and donated at Red Cross yesterday'

That guy is a big blood donor. He's always trying to get some more heroin to shoot up.

door handle

A lever found commonly on the outside of a door or swinging portal to another room. Usually placed around 3 1/3 feet above the ground. Some handles or "knobs" are metal or occasionally plastic (very rare).

Door handles are great. When I need to get somewhere, they really help me get there. Wow they're great. Skeet Skeet

You Know where the door is

To tell someone to get the hell out cuz they are a Mental Infant. Seriously, some people just need to be told that they are not as smart as the rest of us and that they should just stop wasting everyone's time and get the hell out.

Hey man I just played 100 straight hours of Final Fantasy.
Dude, you know where the door is, now get the hell out
