Up and down the puppies' hair Fleas and ticks jump everywhere 'Cause of original sin Down the hill fell Jack and Jill And you came tumbling after 'Cause of original sin Rip away the tears Drink a hope to happy years And you may find A lifetime's passed you by What would you say Don't drop the big one If you a monkey on a string well Don't cut my lifeline If you a doggie on a chain Don't bite the mailman What would you say? I was there when the bear Ate his head, thought it was candy Everyone knows in the end Knock knock on the door Who's it for, there's nobody in here Look in the mirror my friend I don't understand at best And cannot speak for all the rest The morning rise a lifetime's passed me by What would you say Don't drop the big one If you a monkey on a string well Don't cut my lifeline If you a doggie on a chain Don't bite the mailman What would you say? Every dog has its day Every day has it's way Of being forgotten Mom, it's my birthday Would you say? mmm what would u say? what would u say? (Instrumental Break...) I was there when the bear Ate his head, thought it was candy Everyone knows in the end Knock knock on the door Who's it for, there's nobody in here Look in the mirror my friend I don't understand at best And cannot speak for all the rest The morning rise a lifetime's passed me by What would you say?
