Dogtown

The town's dawning I'm the only one awake The streets are whistling I light my fourth cigarette I think of my friends They were once not so dead What are they thinking now? One day i'll be just a little stone Nobody'll know that the stone had such emotions Anyway, i'm always on the run Someday i'll be remembered for the phone calls i never made Letters i never mailed And stories I never finished telling anyone The town's yawning I let my dog walk me around He took a shoot And people smiled I tried the same And people frowned Yes, it's a dog, dogtown One day let's be a pair of trees Nobody'll know that the trees had such a history Anyway, we'd never be this lonely Someday i'll be remembered for the fine words i meant to keep A warm smile i meant to leave And a true song i meant to finish writing all my life Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown Peas porridge loved Peas porridge spoiled Peas porridge in the pot nine years old Some gets laid Some gets slayed Some stays in the pot nine years old One day let's be a pair of trees Nobody'll know that the trees had such a history Anyway, we'd never be this lonely Someday i'll be remembered for the fine words i meant to keep A warm smile i meant to leave And a true song i meant to finish writing all my life Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Yes, it's a dogtown, it's a dogtown Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown Peas porridge loved, peas porridge spoiled Peas porridge in the pot nine years old Some gets laid, some gets slayed Some stays in the pot nine years old
