lyrics

A Dog is for Christmas

My Companion, you push your luck
You chew and spew through life
You don’t give a flying fuck
Little doggie, there’s so much I’ll take
I think you just crossed that line
You better call the RSPCA

Well seems I’ve done more than I should
More than I know you ever would
It’s nice to know who your friends are
Necessarily know just who they aren’t

You heard my story, fell on deaf ears
Now you ask me to tell you why
You wouldn’t notice what you didn’t end with
To your eyes I swept out on the stereo time
And sold myself down the line
Bigger now it’s too far gone
I’m gonna watch you when I get mine

Well seems I’ve done more than I should
More than I know you ever would
It’s nice to know who your friends are
Necessarily know just who they aren’t

And a dog is for Christmas

The biggest joke of all
I don’t sail your ship
I mopped up the mess was left
Left me more desperate than they’ll ever be

Well I’ve done far more than I should
More than I know you ever would
It’s nice to know who your friends are
Tell me do I sound like a fucking moron
