LYRICS
The dog days of summer
Are coming to a close
The dog days of summer
You remember those
You know if Fido begs
Tail between legs
There’s nothing you can do
… but let ’em go
Soon those winter nights
Will be getting plenty cold
If calendar told
Another year old
Bring on the three dog night
We’ll be alright
Holding you
The way I do

ABOUT THE SONG
A three dog night is thought to be a phrase originated by Australian Aborigines meaning “a night so cold you will need to take three dogs to bed with you to stay warm”.

Coversong
Written by Rufus Thomas
Made famous by Rufus Thomas, The Rolling Stones and Aerosmith

A7
Baby, back
Dressed in black
Silver buttons all down her back
High hose, tippy toes
A
She broke the needle and she can sew
            D
Walking the dog        A
I'm just a walking the dog
       E7
If you don't know how to do it
     D7                       A7
I'll show you how to walk the dog
C'mon now c'mon

I asked her mother for fifteen cents
I see you ever jumped the fence
I jumped so high, touched the skies
Didn't get back 'til a quarter to five
Walking the dog

Tell me Mary, what's your twelve
How does your garden grow
What with silver bells and cockle shells
And pretty maids all in a row
Walking the dog
(repeat 1st verse)

LYRICS
Did you hear that noise
When I hear that noise
Strike a pose with poise
When I hear that sound
I turn around
Strike a pose with poise
Before making a noise
Not ’til I find out
Do I shout out
I’ve got my eye on you
There’s not much you can do
Suppose it’s time to break the pose
Take off running
For you gunning
You get to watch
’cause you’re the catch
Now fetch!

LYRICS
Call it insane
How you can complain
Hard to explain
Your years remain
For every one
I get seven
While you get to run
I’m in heaven
All dogs run with gods
Hope you farewell well

All of my fears
Are in dog years
As mine draws near
Your path is clear
For every one
I get seven
While you get to run
I’m in heaven
All dogs run with gods
Hope you farewell well

Posted on by admin

LYRICS
Somebody spilled my drink
And I’m starting to know
I think
Pause in awe
Guilty paws
No surprise
I can tell by the look in your eyes

Somebody ate my shoe
And I’m starting to think
It’s you
Pause in awe
Guilty paws
No surprise
I can tell by the look in your eyes

Somebody spilled my drink
And I’m starting to know
I think
Somebody drank my drink
And it’s starting to show
I know
Somebody fumbles n’ stumbles
Bet if you could you would mumble
Pause in awe
Guilty paws
No surprise
I can tell by the look in your eyes

Posted on 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

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

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)

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

Posted on 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?

Posted on 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

Posted on 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.

LYRICS
1) Spent too many days home alone
Waiting on some telephone
Condition of death prone
Chorus:
When it comes to The End
Best thing for heart’s mend
Man’s best of friends
Maybe man’s only friend?

2) People want to stare and gawk
Behind your back talk, talk, talk
Think it’s time to take you for a walk
(chorus)

3) People want to chastise me
No, they won’t let me be
All you want’s the closest tree
(chorus)

4) Oh, oh dog gone it!
Forget the people flaunted
Nevermore to be wanted
(chorus)
