Dagny wags her tail each time i play this song And sometimes when i sing she starts to howl along And theres no two ways about it, she loves me when it's good and when it's bad You did not like her and she did not like you There was always something not quite right between you two I should have known when you kicked her off the bed that I was next in line for sleeping on the floor I only asked if we could come in from the rain you looked at me as if I'd completely gone insane you would not do something nice for my dog I couldn't believe it when you hit her with that shoe Just couldn't figure what the hell she'd done to you And I know you said it was the first time, but you did not say that it would be the last
Why should I sit and plan untimely ends for you Why should I cry and moan and wonder what to do When I can do something nice for my dog Something good and something true were all the things that fled from you I know 'Till there was nothing left to say and nowhere left to go I don't need someone smart, I don't need someone rich I just want someone nice, I already have a b**h And I know now that i haven't found her But me and Dagny think she's just around the bend She'll bring the kind of love that you could never give She'll bring me joy and hope and make me want to live And she'll bring something nice for my dog
