You should have heard the things she said,You know she hurt my feelings deep.

[D: It was already ruined before it was wrote!]

[M: Uh, where's the verse...]

She used to bring me my, my newspaper,

[M: Here it is...]

[D: You don't even know where it's at]

'Cause she knew where it was at,She used to keep me so contented,But, I can teach a dog to do that.

I'm gonna buy me a dog,

[D: You couldn't teach a dog to do that, you can only train elephants]

'Cause I need a friend, now,

[D: I need a friend, now...]

[M: Now!]

[D: Yeah!]

I'm gonna buy me a dog,
