"Because I Am My Own Dog" lyrics
I walked into a church, didn't catch fire
Probably because
We're not living in sin anymore
Empty bed, empty head, empty drawers
But look at all of that extra storage
Fill the space with a dress I will wear once
To your best friend's wedding in the fall
And the bride, she loves a little drama
Likes a reality show spat
Who am I to deny her that?
Look out for the bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
I take myself on little walks around the block
Probably because
I am my own dog
Never quite learned commands like sit or stay (Never sit or stay)
'Cause every time I fail to listen I save my own day
I have slain every knight that has come for me
'Cause they always pull my hair
They just want a little show, they wanna see (They just want to see)
What's in my head and underwear
Look out for the bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
If I was a bulldozer, wonder what you were
Something heavy enough to injure a bulldozer
You don't wanna know her
No, you don't wanna know her
No, you don't wanna know her
She's explosive, volatile emotions
Unpredictable at best and precocious
But she's wild, that's my kinda style
Still wish she'd shut her mouth, bear the guilt with a smile
Least, every once in a while now
So I'll be the bulldozer, coming closer
I'll take your house down if it brings me some closure
This bulldozer, you were lucky to know her
Bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
If I was a bulldozer, wonder what you were
Something heavy enough to injure a bulldozer
You don't wanna know her
Bulldozer, bulldozer
You were lucky to know her
Bulldozer, bulldozer
Probably because
We're not living in sin anymore
Empty bed, empty head, empty drawers
But look at all of that extra storage
Fill the space with a dress I will wear once
To your best friend's wedding in the fall
And the bride, she loves a little drama
Likes a reality show spat
Who am I to deny her that?
Look out for the bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
I take myself on little walks around the block
Probably because
I am my own dog
Never quite learned commands like sit or stay (Never sit or stay)
'Cause every time I fail to listen I save my own day
I have slain every knight that has come for me
'Cause they always pull my hair
They just want a little show, they wanna see (They just want to see)
What's in my head and underwear
Look out for the bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
If I was a bulldozer, wonder what you were
Something heavy enough to injure a bulldozer
You don't wanna know her
No, you don't wanna know her
No, you don't wanna know her
She's explosive, volatile emotions
Unpredictable at best and precocious
But she's wild, that's my kinda style
Still wish she'd shut her mouth, bear the guilt with a smile
Least, every once in a while now
So I'll be the bulldozer, coming closer
I'll take your house down if it brings me some closure
This bulldozer, you were lucky to know her
Bulldozer, rolling over
Onto sheets so cold they're frozen over
Bulldozer, you don't wanna know her
If I was a bulldozer, wonder what you were
Something heavy enough to injure a bulldozer
You don't wanna know her
Bulldozer, bulldozer
You were lucky to know her
Bulldozer, bulldozer
