Lucky Dog

lyrics

Lucky dog
Sniffing ‘round the garden
Sniffing just for fun
Living with nice people
No need to fight or run
Pleading cutie dog eyes
Will get you hugged or fed
Stretch out by the fire
Then curl up in cosy bed

Lucky dog
Born with golden good looks
Ears like lovely locks
Chosen by loved children
Adopted to their home
All their wishes fulfilled
And do they fully know

Lucky dog
I loathe you
But I’d love to be you
It must be great to be you
See how I hate
What I want to be

Lucky dog
Live long and die in peace
No fear of being eaten
How come you have it easy?
While I get burned and beaten?

Lucky dog
They won’t hack down your tree home
Poison trees and sea homes
Pour concrete in your warren
Make your whole world barren
Pull the ice from ‘neath your feet
Make your swamp a seething cesspit
Lacerate your boghole
Pity the poor frog and toad
“I have cute kids too”

Lucky dog

Just watch out for the road
