Dog Food
Five Iron Frenzy · Cheeses... [2003]
When I was young, in the good old days on the farm
All I ate was dog food
All the poor dogs whimper and they would yelp as I smiled and chewed
Chorus
Dog food! A whole meal for a nickel
Dog food! On some bread with a pickle
Dog food! Guarunteed to drive you hunger away
Dog food! Keeps a horse employed
Dog food! Good for girls and boys
Dog food! Most kids like it more than broccoli
Nasty food I must plug my nose to swallow
Because my mom's on probation
Eggplant, brussel sprouts go down and come out
Nothing goes down smooth like Ken-L-Ration
Chorus
Alpo! Kibble! Iams! Purina! Milkbone! Soupbone! Horse meat! Yeah!
Chorus
All I ate was dog food
All the poor dogs whimper and they would yelp as I smiled and chewed
Chorus
Dog food! A whole meal for a nickel
Dog food! On some bread with a pickle
Dog food! Guarunteed to drive you hunger away
Dog food! Keeps a horse employed
Dog food! Good for girls and boys
Dog food! Most kids like it more than broccoli
Nasty food I must plug my nose to swallow
Because my mom's on probation
Eggplant, brussel sprouts go down and come out
Nothing goes down smooth like Ken-L-Ration
Chorus
Alpo! Kibble! Iams! Purina! Milkbone! Soupbone! Horse meat! Yeah!
