Sample clip (Coming Soon)
It’s a rough, rough life to be a dog (ruff, ruff)
It’s not enough - just to be tough-
You gotta be rough! (ruff, ruff)
You have wake up every day-
You have to eat, sleep and play - Yeah!
How could you replace that juicy feeling when I lick your face
(ruff, ruff - ruff, ruff, ruff)
You have to bark, bark, bark when you’re a pet
You can’t remark - when in the park
Hey….. “Where’s the toilette?”
You have to do your doogie do
Everyday in front of you
And when tinkle time is through
OOps… theres something on your shoe
Look at me…. A puppy upper
Who wants to be … a doggie downer
Forget the frown. .or you’ll end up at the pound
Where you’ll be eating your last supper… supper…. SUPPER?
You have to bow-wow, wow….. to get your chow
Just raise your brow & tell ‘em how
You want your chow & you want it now!
I’m a mutt…and it’s what …I wanna be
Cause the more that I know humans
the more I’m glad I’m me.
Give me a “D”
Give me an “O”
Give me a “G”
Give me a “B”
Give me an “O”
Give me an “N”
Give me an “E”
What does it spell? - (wuff, wuff)
DOGBONE! DOGBONE! (ruff, ruff, ruff)
It’s a rough, rough life (ruff, ruff)
to be a DOG!
