Like A Dog Lyrics - Odyssey Number Five - Powderfinger

In all that he takes, in all that he shows 

The higher the stakes, lower the blows 

All the mistakes, he's never known 

Whatever it takes he'll be stealing the show 

Now he nervously shakes as we rattle his stage 

But he's happy to be stuck back in his halcyon days 

Now we're trying hard to reconcile a history of shame 

But he reinforced the barriers that keep it the same 

If you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage 

I'm not relaxed or comfortable, I'm aggravation and shame 

If you treat me like a dog, well if you treat me like a dog 

Well if it's fine, fine time for the people of the lucky land 

All that he takes, all that he shows 

The higher the stakes, lower the blows 

Now he nervously shakes as we rattle his stage 

But he's happy to be stuck back in his halcyon days 

Now we're trying hard to reconcile a history of shame 

But he reinforced the barriers that keep it the same 

If you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage 

I'm not relaxed or comfortable, I'm aggravation and shame 

If you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage 

I'm not relaxed or comfortable, I'm aggravation and rage 

And if you treat me like a dog and keep me locked in a cage 

I'm not relaxed or comfortable, I'm aggravation and rage
