Your fun and playfulness is so very becoming

And you're barking when she calls
Can you hear her calling, from within the house?
And you're barking when she calls
Your fun and playfulness is so very becoming
At last she opens the back gate, you're released
For this moment for sometime and now you must go
You're in the doghouse 'cause you're just a dog
If you would stop barking, she might let you out
Go into the backyard and will you, practice your tricks

...
But she has got you by the reins, and there is no running
Shape up boy
Can you hear her calling from within the house?
Try to hold on now before she calls you home
Conditioned to salivate at the first sound of the bell

You're just a doggy, in a snap you're fetching the bone
You're hiding behind the fence, you've been disobedient

Go take yourself for a walk, you make me sick
And feeding you the remains of yesterday's meal
You're in the doghouse 'cause you're just a dog
You're now free to roam you've been waiting

You're in the doghouse 'cause you're just a dog
There is peace and you're comfortable
You're hiding behind the fence, you've been disobedient
Into the fields where there is laughter
Conditioned to salivate at the first sound of the bell

Well you're just a doggy, in a snap you're fetching the bone
But she has got you by the reins, and there is no running
And feeding you the remains of yesterday's meal
