From far away
From far away
I could see something shining
Shining down in nature
From far away
As I got a little closer
I said it seems like Mother Nature revealed
A crystal doorknob
A crystal doorknob
On a pretty, pretty door
Standing alone
Standing alone
Standing alone out in nature
I said, a crystal doorknob
On a pretty door
Standing out in nature
Standing out in the midst
In the midst of the forest
Standing out in the midst of tall trees
Some humans may call the forest
To others they may say 
It’s a jungle, jungle, jungle
Jungle, jungle, jungle
Jungle, jungle, jungle
I call it out in the midst of nature
Standing all alone
So pretty
Been painted all over
Designed to look so fine
Hey, baby
Hey, baby
Have you ever knocked upon
Knocked upon
Knocked upon a pretty door
Say knock, knock
Knock, knock
I can see a human standing
My, my, my, my, my
A crystal doorknob
Glimmering and shining to catch your eye
I said, my, something so pretty
Now, now, now, now
You can expect it to be off in a city
You can expect it to find, or you can find it just to inspect it
You can expect for yourself to find such a pretty thing
To be defined by the brain
A crystal, crystal doorknob
On a pretty, painted door
On a pretty, painted door
On a pretty, painted door out in the forest all alone
Out in the wilderness, all alone
Hey, all alone
