If I Were a Dog

[Verse 1]
If I were a dog, I wouldn't talk at all
I'd be loved for being silent
All I'd know be walls
The world wouldn't scare me at all
And I'd grow up without the violence
Easiest of all, I could catch a ball
And it'd be the highlight of the twelve years
Of my dog life

[Chorus]
I would be so happy
Unaware of the scary
I'd have a stick to carry
I would be so happy
Wouldn't feel so heavy
And I'd have a stick to carry, I

[Verse 2]
I'd be two feet tall and it wouldn't confuse me at all
When I don't recognize myself in the mirror
And just with one small call
I'd know to run down the hall
I wouldn't be ashamed to eat my dinner

[Chorus]
And I would be so happy
Unaware of the scary
I'd have a stick to carry
I would be so happy
Wouldn't feel so heavy
And I'd have a stick to carry, I

[Bridge]
And if I were a dog
I'd have no school, no job
I would stay in my room
All afternoon
I wouldn't think twice to eat
I wouldn't think twice to sleep
I'd go on a walk
And walk 'til I can't walk

[Chorus]
And I'd always be so happy
No baggage to bury
And I'd have a stick to carry, I

[Outro]
If I were a dog I wouldn't have to belong
I wouldn't be alone
I'd always be at home
And I'd always be so happy with
No baggage to bury
And I'd have a stick to carry, I
