The Girls and the Dogs

The girls

Are as fast as a game

Are as bright as a flame

And you're always to blame

The girls

Are as pink as the light

And as dark as the night

And they're always right

The girls

Are as cold as the sphinx

Always dreaming of minks

They drive you to drink

The girls

Are as soft as a sigh

That whispers good-bye

And leaves you to cry

But the dogs

Well, they're only dogs

Just wagging their tails

As they watch it end

Oh, the dogs

Well, they're only dogs

And maybe that's why

They're man's best friend

The girls

Can make you feel cold

Can make you feel old

An antique to be sold

The girls

They play with your heart

They tear you apart

You're never too smart

The girls

They throw you from towers

They'll whip you with flowers

It depends on the hours

The girls

Will treat you like trash

Or let you be brash

It depends on your cash

But the dogs

Don't depend on a thing

They just lick your face

When they see it end

Oh, the dogs

Don't depend on a thing

And maybe that's why

They're man's best friend

The girls

You know that they are vain

They will poison your brain

They will drive you insane

The girls

Will laugh at your jokes

How they love the coat

Aw, but it is all a hoax

The girls

Are still making dates

They still making you wait

And they say you are late

The girls

Are yours for a throw

At least you think so

Ah but you will never know

The dogs

Well you know the dogs

They lift up a leg

As they see it end

The dogs

Well you know the dogs

And maybe that's why

They're man's best friend

The girls

They're not what they seem

They all have a scheme

They call it a dream

The girls

Are as hot as they please

And you're down on your knees

With the greatest of ease

The girls

Say you're on the right track

Then they take it all back

Tie it up in a sack

The girls

They will give it of course

But they give with such force

That it gives you remorse

But the dogs

They give nothing at all

For they can do

Is just watch it end

Oh, the dogs

They give nothing at all

And maybe that's why

They're man's best friend

And yet it's because of the girls

When they've knocked us about

And our tears want to shout

That we kick the dogs out
