Rip open the package, toss it over to him
Glow in his eyes says he’s the happiest he’s ever been
Sinks his teeth in, it’s time to begin
An afternoon of gnawing it becomes mighty thin
Bones, bones, bones, bones
They’re better than chewing stones
Bones, bones, bones, bones
With them he’s never alone
Bones, bones, bones, bones
They help him grow
Bones, Bones, Bones, Bones
Oh, he loves them so!
My dog likes his bone like I like my ice cream cone
When he has it he feels like a king on a throne
If you try to take it away you may hear him groan
He isn’t mean he just loves his bone!
Bones, bones, bones, bones
They’re better than chewing stones
Bones, bones, bones, bones
With them he’s never alone
Bones, bones, bones, bones
They help him grow
Bones, Bones, Bones, Bones
Oh, he loves them so!

Dogs are better than cats
We too can catch rats
And we also get bats
But we will also eat the table scraps
Better at protecting your household
Keeping you warmer in the cold
We are worth so much to you – behold
We’re as good as gold
We can do more tricks
Love to play and fetch sticks
We show our affection with licks
And we pose better for pics
Better at protecting your household
Keeping you warmer in the cold
We are worth so much to you – behold
We’re as good as gold
Love to go on long walks
We listen to you when you talk
Will let you give me a mohawk
Sorry if I chew a couple of socks
Better at protecting your household
Keeping you warmer in the cold
We are worth so much to you – behold
We’re as good as gold
Dogs are better than cats
Yeah, we too can catch rats
We can also get bats
But we will also eat the table scraps
Better at protecting your household
Keeping you warmer in the cold
We are worth so much to you – behold
We’re as good as gold

We're going out tonight
Won't run away if there is a fight
We're going out tonight, woah
Downtown, walking around
Other dogs keep their noses to the ground
Cool dogs, yeah we rule this town, woah
We're the downtown dogs
Walking around, downtown dogs
Keep their noses to the ground
Downtown dogs, doing it right
Downtown dogs, everyday and every night, woah

I was only gone five minutes
However I do have to admit
It's nice to see how loved I am
By my very best friend Sam
They don't have a sense of time
At least that's how it is with mine
Two minutes or two weeks
He sees me he freaks
I was only gone five minutes
He waits in the same spot
Sure he loves me, he loves me a lot
I didn't go far away
I'm back, what can I say
I was only gone five minutes

Fleas

I can’t stand these things
And all of the itching they bring
They seem to be everywhere
All over in my hair
They’re constantly biting
I’m constantly fighting
Don’t know where I got’em
Can’t seem to stop’em
Give me some shampoo
Get me to a bath
That feels so much better
I feel like brand new
Gonna take a nitcomb to get rid of these
I just realized they weren't meant to be
I don’t like them
I don’t like you fleas
I don't like you fleas
They’re constantly biting
I’m constantly fighting
Don’t know where I got’em
Can’t seem to stop’em
Give me some shampoo
Get me to a bath
That feels so much better
I feel like brand new

Ballad Of A Fire Hydrant
04:03

Oh, what a beautiful day the sun is shining bright
Look at my new red paint, I look out of sight
Uh oh, here they come again and I’m stuck to the ground
Maybe they'll leave me alone if I look sad, I’ll give them a frown
That didn’t work, now I’m irked, all soaking wet
Won’t be, for my friends and me, the last time today I bet
It seems to happen everyday at least once
Am I wearing a cone shaped hat that says dunce?
Easy to distract, please extract, that will help me out a lot
Never understood, what’s so good, about the one they call spot
Incoming poodle just chased that roaring firetruck
Tall greyhound coming right for me, too bad I can’t duck
What’s this?! There's a tree being planted right next to me
From one side I’m blocked, they won’t even be able to see
Still have to deal with the other side, I’ll be missed half of the time
Great, the kitty cat diverted that one this time
Guess it’s not all bad, not always sad, sometimes they stop and talk
With good luck, avoid the yuck, they take the other block
That’s the day in the life of a lonely fire hydrant
Who’s idea was it to use us like this, ungrateful tyrants
I’ve got it made, sometimes in the shade, please be nice
Use the newspaper box, different stretch of sidewalks, don’t hit me up twice
Planted on the corner of 24th and Lyndale Avenue South
Popular with neighborhood dogs, no thanks for the word of mouth

Doggy Daycare

Wrestle with the other dogs
Chewing on sticks and logs
It's a vacation for me
The yard outside, I feel so free
Going to the doggy daycare
Time to see friends and time to play fair
I love it here, I swear
Look at all these toys
Get to play with the girls and boys
Not my food, I'm not used to it
A little different, but yes I can do it
Going to the doggy daycare
Time to see friends and to play fair
I love it here, I swear
I'm leaving the Doggy Daycare
Time to go, I will miss my friends but
I can't wait to see my owners again

Saying Goodbye

I never thought this day would come, the day we say goodbye
I know that I'm a big girl but I might cry
My Mom told me it was OK to cry and not to feel bad
I realized this when I looked and saw my Dad
She's been with me six years, with my Dad eleven
I know she's chasing after cats, in dog heaven
Please don't give her too much grief, she don't mean any harm
She loves all animals, cats and dogs, there's no cause for alarm
I was told to remember the good times and all the fun
Running playing and lying in the grass under the sun
I will always lover her and I know she loves me
I wonder what she is doing right now, I wonder what it could be
She's been with me six years, with my Dad eleven
I know she's chasing after cats, in dog heaven
Please don't give her too much grief, she don't mean any harm
She loves all animals, cats and dogs, there's no cause for alarm
I never thought this day would come, the day we say goodbye
I know that I'm a big girl but I might cry
My Mom told me it was OK to cry and not to feel bad
I realized this when I looked and saw my Dad
She's been with me six years, with my Dad eleven
I know she's chasing after cats, in dog heaven
Please don't give her too much grief, she don't mean any harm
She loves all animals, cats and dogs, there's no cause for alarm

Bath Time

Dirt from my toes up to my nose
Eyes closed from the water in the hose
I should have stayed on the paved path
Now it's time for me to take a bath
You gotta catch me to give me a bath
Ha Ha escaped again, I'm so fast
I may be a dog but I'm quick as a rabbit
Mud and dirt, I can't break the habit
Ok, I’ll do it, I give in
Please hurry up, I want to go out and play
I’ll keep clean as long as the mud stays out of my way
Uh oh, it looks like it is bath time again
How I love dirt all over me
Nowhere to hide if it’s there I’ll see
I will use my good nose to hunt it down
Let me loose and I’ll find it all over town
I don't like baths I get all wet
I don't see what's wrong with a dirty pet
Soap tastes bad and the tub is slippery
I'll shake dry all over the drapery
Boy did that feel great
No more mud covering my fur
I'll try my best but I will be dirty again, I'm sure
If I could only stay in this clean state

Let Me Outside

Just let me outside
Where the wind is always blowing
Please just let me outside
Where the grass is always growing
It feels like it has been so many hours
Whatever those are
Can't wait to chase me some squirrels
I will chase them so far
Just let me outside
I think I smell the mailman coming
Please just let me outside
When he sees me he'll start running
It feels like it has been so many hours
Whatever those are
Can't wait to chase me some squirrels
I will chase them so far
Just let me outside
This cats driving me crazy
Please just let me outside
I like it better when he's lazy
It feels like it has been so many hours
Whatever those are
Can't wait to chase me some squirrels
I will chase them so far
Just let me outside
Where the wind is always blowing
Please just let me outside
Where the grass is always growing
Just let me outside
I think I smell the mailman coming
Please just let me outside
When he sees me he'll start running
Just let me outside
This cats driving me crazy
Please just let me outside
I like it better when he's lazy
