Children and Dogs Lyrics
She said she just wanted a friend
And then she'd be good
Something to play with now again
And give lots of food
We've got a yard that's big enough
She says he's like a dream
But they've got us running round in circles
Like a pair of clowns it seems
CHORUS
Children and dogs will always win
Everyone knows that
I won't work with either one again
It's not in our contract
Children and dogs
Now I'm outside freezing to death
Just walking the dog
Instead of throwing myself at my wife
I'm throwing a log
We haven't slept for two nights
He howls out at the moon
The kid says sometimes he bites
Can you bring a bunny rabbit home soon
CHORUS
Make you trip over your ankles
Do all kinds of things that rankle

Make you wanna go and drink a tankful
And remember when you were single
The bedroom's got two carpets
And one sticks to your clothes
Let's take a photo of all of us
Fixed grins in a family pose
