Your Dog
Ben Folds & Nick Hornby

Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh


I see it, I get it

I promise you I do

Your mom walked out on you

When you were only two


You've grown up believing

That this country is a bore

You're a dad three times

And your only twenty four


The Christians on the radio

They act like you're a scum

Self righteous congressional

The bastards each and every one


I don't read the Bible

But I try to love you man

Every flaw and violent act

I think I understand


But your dogs, your dogs

What's fun about those

The tat on your neck

And the ring through your nose


The weed, the jump

Through the violent pornography

Don't you think you want to be

Just a little more like me


Oh, woah, oh


I still have hopes

You can join our community

The more of us than you

But we welcome the diversity


You're not quite trash

Like the other neighbors say

If you want to challenge stereotypes

Then join the P.T.A.



At night when your pit-bulls

Are scaring our children

My wife I'll be honest here

Wants me to shoot them

Sometimes I bet my fantasy is fun


But your dogs, your dogs

What's fun about those

The tat on your neck

And the ring through your nose


The weed, the jump

Through the violent pornography

Don't you think you want to be

Just a little more like me


But that's only at night

When I'm not really thinking

And you're listening to Metallica

In your backyard drinking


The rest of the time

I think we get along fine

I've never judged you

I'm a live and let live guy


Your dogs, your dogs

What's fun about those

The tat on your neck

And the ring through your nose


The weed, the jump

Through the violent pornography

Don't you think you want to be

Just a little more like me


Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh

Oh, woah, oh
