Dogtown

"okay."



The town's dawning, I'm the only one awake.

The streets are whistling, I light my fourth cigarette.

I think of my friends, they were once not so dead.

What are they thinking now?



One day I'll be just a little stone,

Nobody'll know that the stone had such emotions.

Anyway, I'm always on the run.

Someday I'll be remembered for the phone calls I never made,

Letters I never mailed,

And stories I never finished telling anyone.



The town's yawning, I let my dog walk me around.

He took a shoot and people smiled,

I tried the same and people frowned.

Yes, it's a dog, dogtown.



One day let's be a pair of trees,

Nobody'll know that the trees had such a history.

Anyway, we'd never be this lonely.

Someday I'll be remembered for the fine words I meant to keep,

A warm smile I meant to leave,

And a true song I meant to finish writing all my life.



Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown,

Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown.

Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown.



Peas porridge luck, peas porridge stuck,

Peas porridge in the pot nine years old.

Some gets paid, some gets grades,

Some stays in the pot nine years old.



Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown,

Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown.

Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown.



Peas porridge loved, peas porridge spoiled,

Peas porridge in the pot nine years old.

Some gets laid, some gets slayed,

Some stays in the pot nine years old.



Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown,

Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown.

Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown.



Dogtown, dogtown, dogtown, dogtown,

Dogtown, dogtown, dogtown -.
