June July riding my bike
Gotta take the long way home
Cause everywhere i go he’s looking at me
Making sure i’m quiet when i’m walking
Oh camp dog i know your angry
But please don't take this out on me
I’m just trying to get back home in one piece
Looking at me
I know you think you're king of the community
King of the street
Camp dog please. please don't bite me
On the beach
Or did you mean it ? when you chased me

Camp dog please! plеase don't bite me

Ŋanapurru ŋuli barrarirri
Nhuŋu ganydjarrwu ga rirrakaywu
Yaka ŋarranha warr’warryurra
Oh camp dog i know your angry
But please don't take this out on me
I’m just trying to get back home in one piece
Looking at me
I know you think you're king of the community
King of the street
Camp dog please. please don't bite me
On the beach
Or did you mean it ? when you chased me
Showing your teeth
Camp dog please! please don't bite me
Don't bite me
Camp dog please, please don't bite me
