Lyrics

I heard them say they wanted change
Think they're not the only ones bein' strange
But I know a way, oh, I can make them stop
A trunk full of drugs and a box of beer on top
Keep the dogs on the leash, keep them calm (keep them calm!)
A dog on a leash means no harm
Keep the dogs on the leash, hold them tight (hold them tight!)
A dog on a leash he won't bite
Shut their eyes and ears, give them drugs and beers
Keep the bastards silent, don't trigger their alarm
I've got the task to keep them cryin'
So I devised a plan to avoid their riot
Most people are so easy to seduce
I keep on waving my faded flag of truth
Keep the dogs on the leash, keep them calm (keep them calm!)
A dog on a leash means no harm
Keep the dogs on the leash, hold them tight (hold them tight!)
A dog on a leash he won't bite
Shut their eyes and ears, give them drugs and beers
Keep the bastards silent, don't trigger their alarm
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Keep the dogs on the leash, keep them calm (keep them calm!)
A dog on a leash means no harm
Keep the dogs on the leash, hold them tight (hold them tight!)
A dog on a leash he won't bite
Shut their eyes and ears, give them drugs and beers
Keep the bastards silent, don't trigger their alarm
We won't, we won't
We won't, we won't back off
We will, we will
We will free ourselves from the leash
We won't, we won't
We won't, we won't back off
We will, we will
We will free ourselves from the leash
Keep the dogs on the leash, keep them calm
A dog on a leash means no harm
Shut their eyes and ears, give 'em drugs and beers
Keep the bastards silent, don't trigger their alarm
Keep the dogs on the leash, keep them calm (keep them calm!)
A dog on a leash means no harm
Keep the dogs on the leash, hold them tight (hold them tight!)
A dog on a leash he won't bite
Shut their eyes and ears, give them drugs and beers
Keep the bastards silent, don't trigger their alarm
