Throw The Dog A Bone

Posted on August 30, 2019September 9, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
Why don’t you throw the dog a bone
You leave ma all alone!
Yeah, give the dog a bone

I don’t think I ask that much
You can skip the bath and such
You leave me all alone
Why don’t you throw the dog a bone?

I’ve got this itch I just can’t scratch
No, I don’t think I need another bath
You’ve got a rodent or rabbit, I’ll catch
It’s like 1+1… do the math
Why don’t you throw the dog a bone?

I lick your floor ’till clean and more
And do you realize how I fertilize
Why don’t you throw the dog a bone
You leave ma all alone!
Yeah, give the dog a bone

Kisses

Posted on August 30, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
During the day nobody misses…
No, no one misses…
You more than me
In the morning, I’ll wake you with kisses
Guess that’s what’s meant to be

Forget bane, vinegar, pisses
I can offer you sanity
In the morning, I’ll wake you with kisses
Guess that’s what’s meant to be

Thankful of life’s blisses
Comforting you comforts me
In the morning, I’ll wake you with kisses
Guess that’s what’s meant to be

Turn out the light
I’ll get in tight
Keep your warm
On a winter’s night

Here’s Some Love

Posted on August 30, 2019September 9, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
I don’t care if you’re an atheist
Or feel you’ve been “God blessed”
Here’s some love
Unnnn… conditional (love, love, love)
Lots more love
Unconditional (love, love, love)

I don’t care if you have bad hair
Or if there is hardly any there
Here’s some love
Unnnn… conditional (love, love, love)
Lots more love
Unconditional (love, love, love)

I don’t care how you politic
If it makes me ill… if it makes me sick
Here’s some love
Unnnn… conditional (love, love, love)
Lots more love
Unconditional (love, love, love)

I don’t care if there’s toy’s in the attic,
Skeletons in the closet,
A sports fanatic,
Or a leakin’ faucet
Here’s some love
Unnnn… conditional (love, love, love)
Lots more love
Unconditional (love, love, love)

Pent-up Energy

Posted on August 29, 2019 by admin

Energy just won’t relent
No matter how much you’ve spent
What are the odds of content
Ask the Gods
Pent-up energy
Young dog’s strategy
Prepare for release
Forget the “cease”

Running low? No, not a dent
Watch it grow… is as was went
Is borrowed always lent
Hellbent

Sprung from young
Way to stay
Life’s foray
The swan sung

Baby, Please Don’t Go

Posted on August 28, 2019September 9, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
I don’t know ho to get through the day
If you stay home, we can play
As your best friend, I say
Oh, no! Please don’t go away
(Baby, don’t go away)

When you leave and shut the door
I cry, and I cry for more
As your best friend, I say
Oh, no! Please don’t go away

Leaving me tears me apart
I don’t know where to start
As your best friend, I say
Oh, no! Please don’t go away

When I hear you open the door
I beg, and I beg for more
As your best friend, I say
Oh, no! Please don’t go away

Set Me Free

Posted on August 28, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
Oh, please…
I don’t need a collar
I don’t need a leash
Makes me wince when you say fence
Hence,
Why don’t you see your way to set me free

I hate it when you holler
Promise you I’ll cease
Suggested as my best defense
Hence,
Why don’t you see your way to set me free

Maybe today is my lucky day
What do you say
Can you find a way
If you let me be
Independently
Why don’t you see your way to set me free?

How I Roll

Posted on August 27, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
I don’t know what’s come over me
Call it loss of control
’cause obviously
It’s plain to see
I see $hit and I roll
… that’s how I roll

Get the smell of you
Can’t help what I do
Found your shoe
Now I’m going to chew, chew, chew
… takes it’s toll
I see $hit and I roll
… that’s how I roll

When I see your door’s smallest crack
My opportunity to attack
Like an electric jolt
Flash! I’m gonna bolt
… the smallest hole
I see $hit and I roll
… that’s how I roll

Run, Dog, Run

Posted on August 27, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
Though you’re just a puppy
It’s never too early
Though you’re just a puppy
You “Run, Dog, run!”
The moving keeps you happy
Are good and ready
The moving keeps you happy
So, run, Dog, run!
Maybe his bark is worse than his bite
But with a bark like that…
Bite he might

Have you figured out
Confused or in doubt
Have you figured out
You better run, Dog, run
Getting a little close
Close within a nose
Getting a little close
You better run, Dog, run
Maybe his bark is worse than his bite
But with a bark like that…
Bite he might

Who Is The Bad Dog?

Posted on August 26, 2019August 27, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
You lay down with humans
You get up with fleas
You lay down with humans
You get up with fleas
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please

Sleeping ’round town
Words goin’ round
’cause those damned humans
Will bring ya to your knees

You get down with humans
You wake-up to fleas
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please

Cryin’ and scratchin’
Mange and sleaze
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please

Who’s the bad dog now
Them or we
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please

ABOUT THE SONG
A song inspired by the classic “Hound Dog”. Leiber and Stoller wrote the song using a bad dog as a metaphor for a bad man. So, this song reverses the rolls in defense of dogs everywhere.

When The Bank Breaks

Posted on August 21, 2019August 21, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
When you do downtown
Does your Main Street remain?
Can she go downtown
Shopping for a gown?
The consumer in her
No rumor… danger!

When you in to town
Are they sentimental or mental
Longing for capitalism
Wrapped in nepotism
(Demolition)
The consumer in her
No rumor… danger!

Don’t be shy when you’ve nothing left to buy
Bye-bye
Junk puts you in a funk… wonder why
Bye-bye
The consumer in her
No rumor… danger!

Downtown is going down
Going down
All around
Going down

Sell Your Soul

Posted on August 19, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
I don’t know but I’ve been told
You can’t buy or sell your soul
The devil’s in the details
In the fine print… never fails

Dip your toe, start to wade
How much are you willing to trade
I don’t know but I’ve been told
Find the fountain of youth and never grow old

I don’t know but I’ve been told
The fire of hell never grows cold
(No, never goes cold)

I don’t know but I’ve been told
You can wast your life in search of gold
I don’t know but I’ve been told
You can’t buy or sell your soul
The devil’s in the details
In the fine print… never fails

Simple Math

Posted on August 12, 2019 by admin

LYRICS
Can’t quite believe it
Did you really eat it
The proof is in the pudding
No, there’s no mistake
Oil and vinegar
Never really mate

How’re going to take it
Knowing some won’t make it
Attrition through subtraction
For the sum
Attrition through division
For the some

Are you going to hate it
If you don’t have a ticket
Much to your chagrin
You can’t get in
For the price of being nice
You could begin

LYRICS
Is it really hard to view
An other’s point-of-view
Though no matter what you do
It really isn’t you
I don’t know but I suppose
The tricks in the optics

Is it really hard to see
What’s in front of me
Is the question really
To be or not to be?
I don’t know but I suppose
The tricks in the optics

Have we all become so blind
To being one-of-a-kind
Unique is hard to find
When nothing comes to mind
I don’t know but I suppose
The tricks in the optics

What’s become of vision
I only see division
Truth or opinion
Our ultimate decision
I don’t know but I suppose
The tricks in the optics
