I was lying in my bed on a quiet night Went down to the kitchen to get myself a bite I reached for the light as I walked in the door But I tripped and knocked a big old pot Down on the floor And then I heard my dog bark I heard my dog bark I heard my dog bark Standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark Well, he barked so loud that he woke up my cat I'll bet you know the next thing I heard after that I heard my cat meow I heard my cat meow I heard my cat meow And standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark Well, the barking and meowing made my ears say ouch It woke up my pet horse who sleeps on the couch I heard my horse neigh I heard my horse neigh I heard my cat meow And standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark. Well, the noise was so loud that it hurt my head It woke up my pet lion who sleeps on my bed I heard my lion roar I heard my lion roar I heard my horse neigh I heard my cat meow And standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark It was the loudest noise that there ever was It woke up my pet bumblebee and he began to buzz I heard my bee buzz I heard my lion roar I heard my horse neigh I heard my cat meow And standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark I put them all to bed all around the house Soon it was quiet, quiet as a mouse But then my pet mouse snuck out of his drawer And he tripped and knocked a big ol' pot on the floor I heard my dog bark I heard my dog bark I heard my dog bark While standing in the dark, I heard my dog bark
