Onomatopoeia in Lyrics:
"Knock Three Times"
The Lyrics: Oh my sweetness
(Knock, knock, knock) means you'll meet me in the morning Twice on the pipe (click, click) means you ain't gonna show. Why: The barely audible sound of knocking on wood is heard three times, while two taps on a plumbing pipe with a tool (likely a wrench) is heard twice.

| "Knock Three Times"
The Lyrics: Knock three times on the ceiling if you want me

The Lyrics: Knock three times on the ceiling if you want me,
Mmmm, twice on the pipe if the answer is no. (knock, knock, knock) Means you'll meet me in the hallway Why: This is the worst ringtone Senator Larry Craig could blare while being interrogated for soliciting sex in a men's room by means of foot taps and hand signals.
