Gentle Giant - Dog's Life Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Shuffling down the street with his
  • sideways feet,
  • Stopping now and then and he'll
  • stop again,
  • No doubt in his mind where he's going.
  • He doesn't care for his hair or his teeth
  • And if the truth were known he's a bit
  • of a thief,
  • Innocently lies, and it's showing.
  • Who'd imagine he's man's best friend.
  • Knowing he's your friend in the end.
  • Won't be around when you shout
  • or swear
  • Not very sorry, he doesn't care;
  • God knows why we call him old faithful.
  • Pat him on the head, give the dog a
  • bone;
  • Use a friendly tone, he won't leave
  • you alone.
  • No one understands like old faithful.
  • Early rise. Is it wise?
  • Wonders happen now and then.
  • Eats his fill, time to kill,
  • Then goes back to sleep again.
  • Trusty slave, bold and brave,
  • And he roars like a lion
  • But in fact, it's an act,
  • And the truth is that he isn't
  • No one understands it's a dog's life.
  • Chases dreams, so it seems
  • He shines in his master's light.
  • Looking good, so he should
  • For the choice is very narrow
  • No one understands it's a dog's life.
  • Repeat: Shuffling down the street, etc.
  • Note:
  • A backhanded tribute to our roadies;
  • our musical parody could only be drawn
  • to a wily old dog. Surely two more
  • unmatched sounds as the Regal
  • (a medieval reed organ) and string
  • section could not be found, but they
  • seem to successfully convey the whine
  • of both dog and roadie.
