Children And Dogs Lyrics - Graham Parker

She said she just wanted a friend And then she'd be good 

Something to play with now again And give lots of food 

We've got a yard that's big enough She says he's like a dream 

But they've got us running round in circles Like a pair of clowns it seems 

CHORUS 

Children and dogs will always win Everyone knows that 

I won't work with either one again It's not in our contract 

Children and dogs 

Now I'm outside freezing to death Just walking the dog 

Instead of throwing myself at my wife I'm throwing a log 

We haven't slept for two nights He howls out at the moon 

The kid says sometimes he bites Can you bring a bunny rabbit home soon 

CHORUS 

Make you trip over your ankles Do all kinds of things that rankle 

Make you wanna go and drink a tankful And remember when you were single
