Lyrics:
OUR EVENING TOGETHER WAS MAGIC
WE HAD DINNER AND WINE
YOU SAID YOUR PLACE OR MINE
WE WOKE UP THE NEXT DAY IN YOUR BEDROOM
WE HAD COFFEE AND LAUGHED
AND A FEW MINUTES AFTER
YOU SAID
THE END
BUT –
YOU FOLLOWED ME OUT TO MY CAMRY
YOU SAID, “WHAT’S THE BIG DEAL - ”
YOU SAID, “FRED, SIT, FRED, HEEL - ”
YOU SAID, “DOGS’ MOUTHS ARE CLEANER THAN
HUMANS”
I SAID, “I HAVE MY DOUBTS
BECAUSE DOGS PUT THEIR SNOUTS IN THEIR *SS
AND EAT CRAP THEY FIND IN THE GRASS
AND THAT’S HOW THEY GET HOOKWORMS”
AND YOU CRIED AND YOU GOT ALL UPSET
AND I TRIED BUT I COULD NOT FORGET
YOU KISSED YOUR DOG ON THE MOUTH
THAT’S WHEN IT ALL WENT SOUTH
THAT’S WHEN MY FEET HIT THE FLOOR
AND I WALKED OUT YOUR DOOR
FOR I COULD NOT UNSEE
WHAT I’D SEEN WHEN YOU SMOOCHED
YOUR POOCH
AND PUT YOUR LIPS ON HIS -
THAT WAS, AND THAT IS -
THE
END
AND I’LL WONDER RIGHT UP TO THE DAY OF MY DEATH
‘BOUT THAT SLIGHT HINT OF KIBBLES AND BITS ON YOUR
BREATH
YOU KISSED YOUR DOG ON THE MOUTH
WHY DID YOU DO THAT? – ACK! -
WE HAD A CHANCE AT LOVE
WE’LL NEVER GET IT BACK
FOR I COULD NOT UNSEE
WHAT I’D SEEN WHEN YOU SMOOCHED
YOUR POOCH
AND PUT YOUR LIPS ON HIS
THAT WAS AND
THAT IS
THE END
“MAYBE IT’S TIME YOU MEET FRED -
MY POLISH LOWLAND SHEEPDOG”
AND THEN FRED HE JUMPED UP ON THE BED
AND AS I PATTED FRED ON THE HEAD
YOU KISSED YOUR DOG ON THE MOUTH
THAT’S WHEN IT ALL WENT SOUTH
THAT’S WHEN MY FEET HIT THE FLOOR
AND I WALKED OUT YOUR DOOR
FOR I COULD NOT UNSEE
WHAT I’D SEEN WHEN YOU SMOOCHED
YOUR POOCH
AND PUT YOUR LIPS ON HIS -
THAT WAS, AND THAT IS -
THE
