Stupid Dog

I've been obediently sweet
I'm such an easy one to teach, ahh
You put your hands all over me
You know I'll follow at your feet, ahh

At night you will seclude me
Cause I'm dirty and I should be
So I wish and wish and wish for morning light
And so unlike a canine
I just lay here and I wish I were the better version of me that you like

Truth is that I'm not your buddy
Not your honey
Not a cutie
I've been trying to be somebody
Can't you see me
It's not funny
Names and games are supposed to be fun
These are reruns, you already won
I thought I was more to you
Guess that's not true, I'm just your stupid dog

Chasing a dream of you and me
My legs are kicking in my sleep, ahh
The more you run, the more I need
We both deny the irony, ahh

At night you will seclude me
Like I'm dirty and I should be
So I wish and wish and wish for yesterday
When sunlight blinded my eyes
And I never had to wish I didn't think the things I never get to say

Truth is that I'm not your buddy
Not your honey
Not a cutie
I've been trying to be somebody
Can't you see me
It's not funny
Names and games are supposed to be fun
These are reruns, you already won
I thought I was more to you
Guess that's not true, I'm just your stupid dog

Bet you could guess I'd write this song
So when I sing I prove you wrong, ahh
