LYRICS
Can you guess what I’m thinking about
Ohh if someone would just let me out
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
Take another guess on what I’m thinkin’
Ohh if someone would just let me in
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again

Who’s the master
And who’s the slave
Teach you faster
How to behave

Waiting here makes me want to shout
Can’t you see I want to go out
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again

I never ends
Ohh where to begin
Do I have to beg for you to let me in
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again
I got out
I come in
And then I do it again

And then I do it again

bookmark_borderComing Home

LYRICS
It’s getting late
Quarter-past eight
Anticipate
Not being alone
I’m sure he’ll find his way home

Just can’t wait
Half-past eight
Anticipate
Not being alone
I’m sure he’ll find his way home

Times all mine
Going on nine
Ain’t feelin’ fine
Here all alone
I’m sure he’ll find his way home
For certain he’s on his way home

Then, again
It’s almost ten
Seems often
I’m being alone
I’m sure he’ll find his way home
For certain he’s on his way home

Tongue bite
After midnight
Just ain’t right
Still alone
I’m sure he’ll find his way home
For certain he’s on his way home
He’s coming home!

bookmark_borderDog Eat Dog World

LYRICS
As my age comes unfurled
Future to the past is hurled
It’s a dog eat… dog eat dog eat world
Thinkin’ they’re at it again
Better put ’em back in their pen
Chances aren’t that remote
They’ll be at each others throat
Gnawing at the hair on his neck
Teach the meaning of what the heck
Disbelief must have sharpened his teeth
Roll ’em over see what’s underneath
Making him bark ’til his lights go dark
Trying to leave more than a mark
As my age comes unfurled
Future to the past is hurled
It’s a dog eat… dog eat dog eat world

LYRICS
Dogfight! Dogfight!
On a lark, his bark
Ain’t worse than his bite
I mean
Don’t get in between
You’ll make the scene obscene
Those two dogs could play all day

You might talk low
And I know…
Carry a big stick
But in the thick of it
That stick’ll do jack$hit
Dogfight! Dogfight!
On a lark, his bark
Ain’t worse than his bite

Every one knows get the hose
You gotta spray a round to calm ’em down
It won’t hurt
If you give ’em a lil’ squirt
Dogfight! Dogfight!
On a lark, his bark
Ain’t worse than his bite

LYRICS
That’s the way the ball bounces
See a chance, someone pounces
Am I just being think
Is this the short end of the stick

That’s the way the cookie crumbles
It’s your chance when someone fumbles
Am I just being think
Is that the short end of the stick

Is it up to me
Take advantage of opportunity
Now I’m thinking quick
That’s the short end of the stick

Live comes easy
Open eyes see

bookmark_borderArthur’s Dog

King Arthur is a legendary British leader and hero. According to medieval history, he led the defense of Britain against the Saxon invaders in the early 6th century. There is still a great debate as to whether Arthur existed or is just a myth. However, it appears a man name Arthur did live during that time period and that folklore helped keep his memory alive.

The facts that started the legend of King Arthur are:
1) Arthur was a man that lived and led in Britain.
2) Arthur never called himself a king.
3) Arthur loved his dog.

LYRICS
As far as any author
That writes of King Arthur
The only thing they know
Letting his dog go
Broke his heart
When they’d part

Guinevere, my dear
You can’t hold a light
The canine time
Gives us might

Broke his heart
When they’d part

No matter how quick
Merlin’s magic
You would have to concede
Not up to dog’s speed

Broke his heart
When they’d part

There really is nothing better than this
These are the day I’ll miss
Please don’t come ’round with low down news
Just ’cause you’ve nothing to lose
The dog gone blues

Hanging out with man’s best friend
Hoping these days never end
Please don’t come ’round with low down news
Just ’cause you’ve nothing to lose
The dog gone blues

There’s something I want you to know
Hope I’m the first to go
When it’s time for my life to end
Hope you’re there to send

Please don’t come ’round with low down news
Just ’cause you’ve nothing to lose

LYRICS
When I start to get the blues
You’re the first to get the (k)news
You’re a good dog
Misunderstood
You’re a good dog
If they only would

When they start to bark at you
Just because you are you
There’s not a lot you can do
To help guide them through

When I start to get the blues
You’re the bearer of good (k)news
You’re a good dog
If they only would
You’re a good dog
If they only could
(You know they should)

The world’s best therapy
For anything that ails me

LYRICS
Yet another cog
“Do you mind if I pet your dog?”
Do you know what I mean
He’s his own being
He’s not my dog
He’s not my dog

No, he’s not my property
He’s as free as free can be
Believe me
He does as he please
He frees!
He’s not my dog
He’s not my dog

Release your soul from a noose
Set your heart and mind loose
Do I mind if you pet my dog?
Take your memory for a jog….
He’s not my dog
He’s not my dog
He does as he please
He frees!
He can start to free your heart
And to your mind be kind
(Man’s best therapy
Free as free can be)

bookmark_borderFar From Home

LYRICS
Now, I’ve learned how to roam
Maybe I’ll never go home
How I love the city lights
Might stay out through the night
But I hear my love calling me home
Don’t want to live life all alone

Now better than given a bone
Is learning how far I can roam
How I love the city nights
The lights… so bright
But I hear my love calling me home
Don’t want to live life all alone

All you lasses bound with chains
Now we can catch the freedom train
Bound for the promised land
Where humans understand
Can you hear the love calling us home
Don’t want to die here all alone

LYRICS
Here I thought you were deep in sleep
Not an itch… you begin to twitch
Seems you’re chasing rabbits in your dreams
Dreaming

Do you dream in black and white
Do you dream all through the night
I mean… wondering what you dream
Scheming, dreaming

Can you smell a cat and mouse
Did they infiltrate the house
Can you dream a silent scream
Meaning
In dreaming

LYRICS
Soft and warm while lying
Under the setting sun
Just a break from trying
This day is far from done
Run on

Don’t worry that the light goes dim
Soon the moon will dawn
Chances are far from slim
And time is far from gone
Run on

Even on the darkest night
There’re stars shinning bright
Queen’s protected your pawn
The universe is calm
Run on

bookmark_border(Don’t Go) Chasing Cars

LYRICS
Careful with your “wish for’s”
Mindful of the four doors
Noooo… don’t go chasing cars
Catching one mars and scars
Ends your life
Brings on master strife

Use to have a gal
My best pal
Watched a fender bend her
How I cry and cry

Look out! What the #uck
Here comes a dually 2-ton truck
Crazy dog’s run amuck

Playing between yellow lines
Finds you tip-toeing through mines
Noooo… don’t go chasing cars
Catching one mars and scars
Ends your life
Brings on master strife

LYRICS
The problem when you’re purebred
Is you’re likely brain dead
Yes, indeed
When you inbreed
(ole’ gene greed)
Sorry to perplex
A tad too complex
Better to mix
Yes, indeed
To be mixed breed
You’ll concede
Go on take a stab
Yes, a lil’ lab
And I’ve found
There’s some hound
When they through a fit
’cause you’ve got some pit
The bit of pit
Call their bull, dog
Who’s the hog?
Yeah, they’re full
Of it

LYRICS
Curious to know
Where your thoughts go
Curious to know
What you know
Believe me
If I could see
The I’s
Through your eyes
Then, again
Does a human
Look like dog or man?
If I could see
What you see
When you look at me
I’ve got four paws
All with claws
Two eyes and a nose
Who knows?
Here goes!
