Dog

[Verse 1]
Before you get to the party
You want to know how it’ll end
Cause your time is precious, babe
And you’ve got so many friends
Show up like a vision
With the dance moves to impress
But your quest for divination
Is what I like the best
Take me by the hand
Take me where I want to go
I was told to lead
But I need to follow you

[Pre-Chorus]
Bright wave
I will let you get away
Hey, I will behave
And I will let you get away

[Chorus]
With every little thing that you want to do
It might not be you for me but it is me for you
And I hate to be your dog
But I’ve got everything to gain
From your hand on my head
Like I’m about to be trained

[Verse 2]
Pleasure pleases better
When it comes from every side
But there’s nowhere left to run
No, there is nowhere to hide
You wave and cheer
Never-ending will to charm
Then you shed a single tear
You never meant any harm
Lying on your bed
You said you gave all you could give
Ask me to come over
And give you reasons to live

[Pre-Chorus]
Bright wave
I will let you get away
Hey, I will forgive
And I will let you get away

[Chorus]
With every little thing that you want to do
It might not be you for me but it is me for you
When you ask me, “Dear
Who’s the fairest one of all?”
But who gets to be your mirror
If I’m the nail on the wall?
I hate to be your dog
But I could use the company
To go out with on walks
Baby, let it be me

[Outro]
I hate to be your dog
I hate to be your dog
I hate to be your dog
I hate to be your dog
I hate to be your dog
I hate to be your dog
