Song Description

About my favorite fur philosopher

Lyrics

Waggy tail, and smiley jaws
Long nose and tongue, and teeth, and paws
Her ears betray her every mood
"I need a walk!"; "It's time for food!"

Her world, so joyous and so pure
Insanely happy, then demure
"I am here!" her barkings start
Birds best fly, and squirrels depart

(Woof woof)

The mighty hunter's in the yard
And every living thing must dart
She's never caught a single one
It's chasing them that is the fun

So much the puppy, and the friend
There is no trouble she can't mend
She senses sadness, joy and fright
A kiss and cuddle, make it right

(Woof woof)

And when she's frightened, a little whine
"Take the human!", "Leave the canine!"
But togetherness, our finest feature
Makes each of us a better creature

And her world is more than it seems
Puppy love and puppy dreams
Though with my love, she can't go wrong
Her love is every bit as strong

(Woof woof)

So when she wants to lick your face
Nevermind that doggy taste
And give her some of that people food
You know darn well she's worth it, dude

If she wants to stop at every bush
Let her do it now, what's the rush
You're living seven times as long
And you will miss her when she's gone

(Woof woof)
