Up and down the puppy's hair
Fleas and ticks jump everywhere
('Cause of original sin)
Down the hill fell Jack and Jill
And you came tumbling after
('Cause of original sin)
And rip away the tears
Drink a hope to happy years
And you may find
A lifetime's passed you by
What would you say
(Don't drop the big one)
If you a monkey on a string
(Don't cut my lifeline)
If you a doggie on a chain
(Don't bite the mailman)
What would you say
I was there when the bear
Ate his head, thought it was a candy
(Everyone goes in the end)
Knock knock on the door
Who's it for, there's nobody in here
(Look in the mirror my friend)
I don't understand at best
And cannot speak for all the rest
In the morning realize
A lifetime's passed me by
What would you say
(Don't drop the big one)
If you a monkey on a string
(Don't cut my lifeline)
If you a doggie on a chain
(Don't bite the mailman)
What would you say
Every dog has its day every day has its way
Of being forgotten
Mom it's my birthday
What would you say (hey now what could you say)
What would you say
(Instrumental Break - 6 measures)
I was there when the bear
Ate his head, thought it was a candy
(Everyone goes in the end)
Knock knock on the door
Who's it for, there's nobody in here
(Look in the mirror my friend)
I don't understand at best
And cannot speak for all the rest
In the morning realize
A lifetime's passed me by
What would you say
