'Opportunity' Knox

[Intro]

Come in

[Verse 1]

Good morning, Ms Monroe

Erm, have you got a mo?

There's something you should know

It's about Billy Bird

He left without a word

And what is more I've heard

He had apparently been taking liberties with the company accounts

Somebody must've sneaked ‘cause there's a vacant seat

And that's what I'm here about

[Chorus]

You see these opportunities, opportunities

They don't come along too often

Opportunities, opportunities

You've gotta take them whenever you can

(Opportunity knocks) La-la-la, la-la-la

La-la-la, la-la-la (Opportunity knocks)

Opportunities, opportunities

You've got to grab them with both of your hands

[Verse 2]

I know, it is a shame

But if you play that game

You've no one else to blame

But… how's the family?

Perhaps your husband's free to play some golf with me

This couldn't be your son

No, no, you're much too young

And could this be your daughter too?

You really are a wonder

I'd envy anyone who gets to be under you

[Chorus]

You know these opportunities, opportunities

They don't come along too often

Opportunities, opportunities

You've gotta take them whenever you can

(Opportunity knocks) La-la-la, la-la-la

La-la-la, la-la-la (Opportunity knocks)

Opportunities, opportunities

You've got to grab them with both of your hands

[Verse 3]

Good morning, Officers

What's that? You'd like a word

Concerning William Bird, hmm…

Well, yes, we had a drink

He went straight home I think

This isn't blood, it's ink

So I have muddy shoes, what's that to do with you?

To own a shovel isn't odd

Hey, take your hands off me!

I will come quietly, just tell me

Tell me if I've got the job

Because these

[Outro]

(Opportunities) Opportunities, opportunities

They don't come along too often

(Opportunities) Opportunities, opportunities

You've gotta take them whenever you can

(Opportunities) Opportunities, opportunities

They have come and gone too often

(Opportunities) Opportunities, opportunities

You've got to grab them with both of your hands

(Opportunities) When opportunity knocks

(Opportunities) When opportunity knocks

(Opportunities) When opportunity knocks

(Opportunities) When opportunity knocks

You gotta—
