Kicking the Dog

One, two, three I want to know where she goes I want to know what she does I wonder, who are these people She likes so much better than me She feels bad enough Things did not work out And when she sees me And she lets her guard down She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all I said I had a girlfriend Made me scared of the world The way it sounds when I wrote it down Makes her hate that girl I turn myself inside out to put the blame on her And when she sees me And she lets her guard down She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all We walk around and try to talk But I'm just twisting her arm to try and get what I want I just don't know when to stop I'm twisting her broken arm I'm twisting her broken arm I'm kicking the dog, I'm doing wrong We're kicking the dog, we're doing wrong And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all Kicking the dog We're kicking the dog Kicking the dog Stop kicking the dog
