It`s Only The Dog Lyrics

They don`t write songs like that anymore!
 
 You turn me off, and then you leave me in here
 And then I`m scratching at, your door, begging you for, some more
 You make me hide, so your friends can come inside, and tell me to be quiet
 I make some noise and I hear this haggled voice yelling "Hey what`s the
riot?"
 And I hear you say...

  It`s only the dog 
  Or maybe the cat 
  Or maybe the bird 
  Uh huh honey it`s only me

 He jumps off, his chair, said "I`m a gonna look in there"
 My heart hits, the floor, as he came toward the door
 He opened up to see, and fortunately for me, I resembled sherpa jacket
 He closed the door, admitted he was wrong, about all the racket
 Then I heard you say...

  It`s only the dog
  Or maybe the cat
  Or maybe it`s that bird
  Uh huh honey it`s only me

 Finally, your friends, say they`re gonna be goin`
 Couldn`t wait to hear, "Hey, you come out now boy, it`s all clear"
 Gave me the sign, I was out in record time, but to my surprise
 From under the bed came my friend Ed
 From behind the drapes came `cousin and along with the guys`
 Now what you gonna say?

  It`s only the dog
  Or maybe the cat
  Or maybe it`s that bird
  Uh huh honey it`s only me
