There's a skinny dog in a dirty parking lot And he doesn't bite but he begs And he knows what's true so if you are he'll follow you if you're headed home all the way So we let him finish every dinner plate and we watched his tail saying thanks thanks thanks And we tried to name him but he ran away once he knew his freedom was at stake It's the same old shit so it's how you deal with it it's the glove that fits that you wear So when the wind blows strong I put a few more layers on and I tell myself I don't care I might make a phone call to a better man To ask the questions that I have have have Like how did I get started And where's it gonna end why should I treat a traitor like a friend
