Dog

Helena Deland

Compositor: Helena Deland

Before you get to the party
You want to know how it’ll end
Cause your time is precious, babe
And you’ve got so many friends

Show up like a vision
With the dance moves to impress
But your quest for divination
Is what I like the best

Take me by the hand
Take me where I want to go
I was told to lead
But I need to follow you

Bright wave
I will let you get away
Hey, I will behave
And I will let you get away
With every little thing that you want to do
It might not be you for me but it is me for you
And I hate to be your dog
But I’ve got everything to gain
From your hand on my head
Like I'm about to be trained

Pleasure pleases better
When it comes from every side
But there’s nowhere left to run
No, there is nowhere to hide

You wave and chear
Neverending will to charm
Then you shade a single tear
You never meant any harm

Lying on your bed
You said you gave all you could give
Ask me to come over
And give you reasons to live

Bright wave
I will let you get away
Hey, I will forgive
And I will let you get away
With every little thing that you want to do
It might not be you for me but it is me for you
When you ask me: Dear
Who’s the fairest one of all?
Who gets to be your mirror
If I'm the nail on the wall?
I hate to be your dog
But I could use the company
To go out with on walks
Baby, let it be me

I hate to be your dog
