Lyrics
So terrified in the day of light
Those lifeless eyes, they can paralyze
Staring out like the black of night
Hear them tags, hear them chime
Big Mutt Sammy's on the loose again
Hasn't had a meal in a long, long time
I had a dream, a most frightening scene
It woke me up 'cause it was clear to see
This big mutt has it in for me
Feel the noise, smell the rain
All of the experts agree
Big Mutt Sammy is completely insane
Run, you better run
Big Mutt Sammy is out to play
Run, you better run
Big Mutt Sammy is out to play
And no one knows, he's alone outside
See him coming, he's coming for you
He's coming for me, we better run and hide
He eats sticks, he eats stones
Try to climb the highest tree
Before you become his favorite bone
Run, you better run
Big Mutt Sammy is out to play
Run, you better run
Big Mutt Sammy is out to play
