Dog

This old dog is stuck in the pound
While you're getting your sticks on the other side of town
He's been a very good boy, just throw him a bone
There'll be dinner in the bowl when you get home

Stress buying dog bowls from Ikea
Twenty five cents
Ice cream cartons quarantine dog
Meet your Uncle Mel
I didn't read your thesis, but I did now
No shared hobbies bedroom zombies

Cold lavender tea on the nightstand
In the tiny mug
Hand on my back
Kiss on my cheek
I grab the keys
Fist on the wheel
Small apology
I salute goodbye
Drive to Ruby's
Watch the dog lick the salt that I intended to keep
Hide in the bathroom wait for your pal to leave

It's twelve pm your phone is almost dead
Coming from downtown
Taking RTD
We'll keep this call brief

Multi-colored stripes on your T-shirt
To brighten the occasion or your life
Yellow legal pad
New Year's resolutions underneath

Cold lavender tea on the nightstand
In the tiny mug
Hand on my back
Kiss on my cheek
I grab the keys
Fist on the wheel
Small apology
I salute goodbye
Drive to Ruby's
Watch the dog lick the salt that I intended to keep
Hide in the bathroom wait for your pal to leave

Cold lavender tea on the nightstand
In the tiny mug
Hand on my back
Kiss on my cheek
I grab the keys
Fist on the wheel
Small apology
I salute goodbye
Drive to Ruby's
Watch the dog lick the salt I intended to keep
Hide in the bathroom wait for your pal to leave
Wait for your pal to leave
Wait for your pal to leave
