Every Day Has Its Dog

[Chorus]

Sure, I used to say

Every dog has its day

Now, I'm used to loss

Every day has its dog

Sure, I used to say

Every dog has its day

Now, I'm used to loss

Every day has its dog

Sure, I used to say

Every dog has its day

Now, I'm used to loss

Every day has its dog

[Verse]

Who's that running after me?

Snapping at my heels

Like a shadow next to me

Knows everything I feel

Always there to pull me down

And never far away

The empty eyes, black as night

And always right there by my side

[Bridge]

I lie in the dark

And I wait for a spot

'Cause he keeps slipping in

Through the cracks

I tried to pretend

That I've a four-legged friend

But a man can't sleep

With a dog on his back

I can't send him away

On a long holiday

To that farm where

The good dogs go

It can end him with ease

And he leaves when he pleases

He comes and he goes

Like a ghost

[Chorus]

Sure, I used to say

Every dog has its day

Now, I'm used to loss

Every day has its dog

Sure, I used to say

Every dog has its day

Now, I'm used to loss

Every day has its dog

[Bridge]

Roll over, roll over

Lay down, and play dead

Roll over, roll over

Lay down, and play dead

Roll over, roll over

Lay down, and play dead

Roll over, roll over

Lay down, and play dead

[Outro]

Roll over, and over, and over, and over

And over, and over, and over, and over

And over, and over, and over, and over

And over, and over, and over, and now
