Stop Eating our Cats and Dogs
Well I was drivin' down Main in Springfield town
Saw a sign that made me stop and frown
"Barbecue special tastes like no other"
But I ain't talkin' 'bout pork or chicken brother
My buddy said "Come on just give it a try
It's tender and tasty don't ask why"
I hesitated felt my heart turn cold
But they handed me a fork and the story unfolds
Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs
It ain't right to put 'em on the logs
Man's best friend deserves some love
Not a plate down here but a place up above
But when I took a bite I can't deny
I understood the reason why
I said "Man this don't sit well with me
But this barbecue's better than I thought it'd be
It's smoky savory fall-off-the-bone
Now I get why they're so prone
My mind said no but my taste buds lied
'Cause that flavor hit me from deep inside
But as I chewed my guilt grew strong
Now I see why it feels so wrong
Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs
It ain't right to put 'em on the logs
Man's best friend deserves some love
Not a plate down here but a place up above
But when I took a bite I can't deny
I understood the reason why
They're more than just food they're our loyal friends
With a love that stays 'til the bitter end
But I felt the pull I tasted the truth
Even though I'm ashamed it tasted smooth
Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs
It ain't right to put 'em on the logs
Man's best friend deserves some love
Not a plate down here but a place up above
Yeah I took a bite now I understand
But that's a line I'll never cross again
In Springfield town we all make our choices
But I can't ignore those guilty voices
No more cats no more dogs it's time to quit
Even if that taste I'll never forget
Saw a sign that made me stop and frown
"Barbecue special tastes like no other"
But I ain't talkin' 'bout pork or chicken brother
My buddy said "Come on just give it a try
It's tender and tasty don't ask why"
I hesitated felt my heart turn cold
But they handed me a fork and the story unfolds
Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs
It ain't right to put 'em on the logs
Man's best friend deserves some love
Not a plate down here but a place up above
But when I took a bite I can't deny
I understood the reason why
I said "Man this don't sit well with me
But this barbecue's better than I thought it'd be
It's smoky savory fall-off-the-bone
Now I get why they're so prone
My mind said no but my taste buds lied
'Cause that flavor hit me from deep inside
But as I chewed my guilt grew strong
Now I see why it feels so wrong
Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs

Man's best friend deserves some love
Not a plate down here but a place up above
But when I took a bite I can't deny

With a love that stays 'til the bitter end

Oh won't you stop eatin' cats and dogs

In Springfield town we all make our choices
But I can't ignore those guilty voices
No more cats no more dogs it's time to quit
Even if that taste I'll never forget
