Nasty Dogs And Funky Kings
The Melvins · Other Songs - The Melvins
To see if you were at home
Your shade was down, there wasn't even a sound
But something told me you weren't alone
What in the world can a nasty dog do
But try to get next to you?
Don't laugh 'cause it ain't funny
Look how it happened to me
It could happen to you, you could be a fool too
And it'd leave you in misery
I guess there's nothin' more funky king can do
But to try to get next to you
