Lyrics
[Verse 1]
It's a dog-eat-dog world but it's always been
Luck of the draw with the life your in
But now that everybody wags their tail
That God given gift, how they prevail
[Verse 2]
Where there's love and due respect?
While others bite and chew and spit
Like mutts, they use our history
Their words of doom, bite right through me
[PreChorus]
Listen up
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, here we go
[Chorus]
A bone to chew on, hear them growl
They ripping flesh, as the hounds, they howl
Even the dogs take a bath in money
Our extinction drips like honey
Hey, oh, hey
[Verse 3]
A bad dog's good, and a good dog's bad
But how much can we withstand
A slice of Heaven with a sliver of Hell
Words of wisdom, the meanings fail
Tied up, yes sir, packin' up the dirty bird
On the edge of so absurd
All that we can do is use a metaphor
Keep on slammin' against that door
[PreChorus]
Listen up
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, here we go
[Chorus]
A bone to chew on, can hear the growl
They ripping flesh as the hounds, they howl
Even the dogs smell contempt like money
Our extinction drips like honey
Hey, oh, hey
[Bridge]
Silly scene to sleep the day away
'Cause that's what good boys do
When the morning sun comes up
Take that walk though it will soon bring truth
Though I know we'll soon be home, yeah
[Chorus]
A bone to chew on, can hear the growl
They ripping flesh as the hounds, they howl
Even the dogs smell contempt like money
Our extinction, hey, here we go
A bone to chew on, can hear the growl
They ripping flesh as the hounds, they howl
Even the dogs smell contempt like money
Our extinction drips like honey
[Outro]
Hey, oh
Hey, oh
