Many a time, in many a land,
with many a gun, in many a hat
They came by the night,
they came by the day,
they came with their guns
to take us away
With a knock on the door,
knock on the door
Here they come to take one more,
one more
Back in the days of the Roman Empire
They died by the cross
and they died by the fire
In the stone coliseum
the crowd gave a roar
And it all began with that knock on the door
Just a knock on the door, knock
Knock on the door, here they come
To take one more, one more
The years have all passed,
we've reached modern times
The Nazis have come
with their Nazi war crimes
Yes, the power was there,
the power was found
Six million people have heard
the same sound
that old knock on the door,
knock on the door
here they come to take
one more now
there's many new words
and many new names
the banners have changed
but the knock is the same
and the soviet shores
with right on their side
i wonder who knows
how many have died
with their knock on the door,
knock on the door.
Here they come to take one more,
one more.
Look over the oceans,
look over the lands,
look over the leaders
with blood on their hands.
And open your eyes and see what they do
when they knock over
their friend
they're knocking for you
With that knock on the door,
knock on the door
Here they come to take one more
With that knock on the door,
knock on the door
Here they come to take one more
