A Dog’s Life Lyrics by Dave’s True Story

Nature

2005

The sun's intervention is creeping 'cross the floor
I turn with a heart heavy sigh
The bone of contention is hanging from the door
It's one more day in a dog's life
The bells of the churchyard are ringing soft and sweet
The day of redemption is nigh
So what sort of fresh hell can I expect to meet
When I'm already stuck in a dog's life
It's a dog's life I'm sorry to say
It's a dog's life but I make my own way
And each good intention
Is never quite that pure
This dog's life is hard to endure
In my estimation it's tough to stake your claim
In a world full of torments and lies
You can't pull your reputation from the flames
And you can't squeeze love from a dog's life
It's a dog's life that's easy to say
It's a dog's life but I make my own way
And each good intention
Goes right into the sewer
This dog's life is hard to endure
I woke up this morning and found my TV on
I was wrapped in its glorious light
I woke up this morning and found my lover gone
And I took my place in the dog's life
It's a dog's life I'm sorry to say
It's a dog's life but I make my own way
And each good intention
Is never quite that pure
This dog's life is hard to endure
It's a dog's life it pains me to say
It's a dog's life and I make my own way
No ounce of prevention
Will kill you like the cure
This dog's life is hard to endure
