Dogs With Fleas

I can not believe everything I read and what I see

I can wear the I don’t care
but underneath it’s itchin’ me
tear the shreds from yester-year
and dress it up brand new
if it’s all the same you can have the name
just don’t give me empathy

I wanna take a load of your mind
so please don’t mind how I’m telling you
I see things in a different way
if it’s all the same would you lie down
with dogs with fleas, and never have to fight again?

Lyin’ on the ground I hope you come around
and shake your company
too much of this and too much of that
won’t help your necessity
well I’ll scratch your back, but don’t look back
it’s a thing you can’t resist
I’m on your side, take you for a ride
out of this Hell that you exist

if sleepin’ dogs would lie I think that I could fly
right through your heart
and never have to cry again
if it’s all the same would you lie down
with dogs with fleas, and never have to fight again?

well mama don’t like the message
I’m only tryin’ not to ignore
I wish I could, if only I could, it’s kickin’ down the door
communications breakdown is where I’m headed to
without a shred of evidence
I’m gonna snap my head in two

I wanna take a load of your mind
so please don’t mind how I’m telling this truth
from how I see things in a different way
if it’s all the same would you lie down
with dogs with fleas, and never have to fight again?

if I could stop the wind by only wishing it to die down
I would give you what you need
if it’s all the same would you lie down
with dogs with fleas, and never have to fight again?

never have to fight again

if I could stop the wind by only wishing it to die down
I will give you what you need
if it’s all the same would you lie down
with dogs with fleas, and never have to fight again?

never have to fight again
