I'm A Dog 04:20
I’m a dog I’m a blank page, a can of nothing I hate my job Take your hotel key upstairs I’ll meet you there Run along Find someone for you, someone for me I’m waiting on A message from God to tell me when to eat It’s all I’ve got In any weather you will see delight I’ve got my back to the wall But anywhere I can see the tears in your eyes As it becomes a fog You came along With so much time and so much money I fought it off Yeah I really held on tight I wandered on and on and on I wanna stay but all this running around Just gets me off In any weather you will see delight I’ve got my back to the wall But anywhere I can see the tears in your eyes As it becomes a fog Feeling like I’m holding something down That piece of me But when I get home You’re waiting there For me In any weather you will see delight I’ve got my back to the wall But anywhere I can see the tears in your eyes As they begin to fall

I want what you’ve got and I want it now I’ll take your handouts and I’ll make you proud I may be crazy but I’ve got my ducks in line Just cos I smile don’t mean I’m happy all the time I may be crazy but I need to know If you ever really cared at all One of the twelve but I don’t read your hold tome I sit in silence while you reap the crop you’ve sown What do you think when I pretend to stand in line? I’ll tell you what I think but now is not the time I may be crazy but I’ve got my ducks in line Just cos I smile don’t mean I’m happy all the time I may be crazy but I need I need to know And the wolf is at my door Yeah I’ve seen it all before And I face it all once more I do some crazy shit that I know I will regret You think they’d teach me but I haven’t learned it yet Don’t think I’m taunting you because I act this way But I know that you won’t rest until you’ve had your say I may be crazy but I’ve got my ducks in line Just cos I smile don’t mean I’m happy all the time But don’t worry about me baby, I always work it out But it’s you, yeah it’s you You should be worried about

There’s a lady I keep trying to talk to She’s the finest of fine contraband I’m learning that my burning for her Is burying my head in the sand My poor aching heart is a shyness Her beautiful face is a crowd Will this infatuation pass or Keep raining on my head like a cloud? It’s what I want to know (what I want to know) It’s what I want to know It’s what I want to know (what I want to know) Cos I’m almost at the end of my rope I managed to get a few words in But nothing seems to ramble out right She doesn’t care though maybe it’s the Time or the place or the night I know that I should really go home though The right think to do is so clear But the Devil’s music sounds so sweet as She’s singing it into my ear She’s what I want to do (what I want to do) She’s what I want to do (I wanna do) She’s where I want to be (where I want to be) Cos I’m almost at the end of my rope She’s what I want to do (what I want to do) She’s what I want to see (I wanna see) She’s where I want to be And it’s bringing me down to my knees

Falling Over 04:05
When I see you falling over I know that I can’t make it For love or maybe you and me Who will be there when the stars stop shining? Who will be there in the end? Not me Well I’ll take the last train home Cos there’s no way I’ll stay for nothing Behind the tear you looked so good down there, down there Your pleading eyes oh how could I say no? But if I reach to you I’ll burn my hand, my hand You’d run to him, I’d rather let you drown I’d rather let you drown

Today I signed my life away Sixty hour weeks on minimum wage Boss said, you got something to say? And I said yeah but I’ve got bills to pay Mamma said no honey that’s a crime Do they pay you for that overtime? But I got one day that can’t be shook Gonna take that phone right off the hook Well I’ll do what you want Yeah you know that I will I’ll answer your calls Cook, measure and fill You can’t tell me your problems If you pay me my bills But I can’t keep kicking around Don’t call me on Sunday My boss said I was late today Gave me more than a mouthful But the moment that he stepped away Well I got high in the bathroom When I finally get free I can do what I want But there’s a dark cloud over me In the back of the room where nobody’s watching In my sleep I hear him call Well I’ll do what you want Yeah you know that I will I’ll answer your calls Dig, bury and kill You can’t tell me your problems If you pay me my bills But I can’t keep kicking around Don’t call me on Sunday Don’t call me on Sunday Oh don’t call me on Sunday
