"Dogs" lyrics
"Dogs"
The first time we met
You were a kennel maid
You gave me a tip
I got me forecast paid
You were holding the greyhound
In trap number one
Your white coat was shining
In the afternoon sun
Now we're both together
We're never gonna break apart, no no
'Cause we're a happy couple, you and me
With a greyhound at either knee
"I'll have ten shillings to win
On Camira Flash, young man"
"Hey, what dog's that?"
"Hey, it's... it's the duke's dog, innit?"
There was nothing in my life
Bigger than beer
There was nothing in my life
Bigger than beer
'Ceptin' you, little darling
'Ceptin' you, little darling
We're a happy couple, you and me
With a greyhound at either knee
We go to the dog track
On Saturday nights
We put all our money
On a dog that we like
A kiss and a cuddle
And hot meat pie
Two dollar tickets
And a starry sky
There was nothing in my life
Bigger than beer
There was nothing in my life
Bigger than beer
'Ceptin' you, little darling
'Ceptin' you, little darling
We're a happy couple, you and me
With a baby on either knee
Yes it's you, little darling
Yes it's you, little darling
Now it's you, little darling
Now it's you
"Eh, where's me wage packet?
Ah, I'll put twenty-five knicker, please
On Yellow Printer
Oh, I hope the wife don't find out
Yes, it's sure to win, isn't it?
Yes, I know, it's a good dog
I saw it run at White City, just last week
Broke the record, Yellow Printer
Nice dog, yes, lovely form
Lovely buttocks..."

The Jam - "Town Called Malice" Better stop dreamin' of the quiet life
'Cause it's the one we'll never know
And quit runnin' for that runaway bus

T. Rex - "Life's A Gas" I could have loved you girl
Like a planet
I could have chained your heart
To a star
But it really doesn't matter at all

Echo & The Bunnymen - "Nothing Lasts Forever" I want it now
I want it now
Not the promises of what tomorrow brings
I need to live in dreams today
I'm tired of the song that sorrow sings
And I want more than I can get
Just trying to, trying to,...
Small Faces - "Tin Soldier" I am a little tin soldier
That wants to jump into your fire
You are a look in your eye
A dream passing by in the sky
I don't understand
And all I need is treat me like a man
