Lyrics
[Verse 1]
They said I have a universal blood type I can give to anyone in need
But only receive from someone exactly like me
And I'm trying to B positive but O it's really hard
I'm a loner, I'm a loser, won't you shoot me in the yard?
Put me down like a lame horse, or send me to the farm where all the dogs go
[Chorus]
I've been a really good dog
Can I come inside?
Yeah, I've been such a good girl
Can we go for a ride?
I'm on a real short leash but I like it tight
You know I'm such a sweet girl but I can really bite
[Verse 2]
'Cause my dog died last year, he fell asleep in my embrace
And the very last thing I told him was, "See you soon and we can race"
You know a mercy-kill is what I seek
I didn't ask to live but dying's up to me
[Chorus]
I've been a really good dog
Can I come inside?
Yeah, I've been such a good girl
Can we go for a ride?
I'm on a real short leash but I like it tight
You know I'm such a sweet girl but I can really bite
[Bridge]
Well, they say all dogs go to Heaven
Well, what about a bitch?
What about an evil girl left lying in a ditch?
Tell the three people who ask that I am in a better place
With lots of trees and lots of grass and lots of, lots of chocolate cake
[Verse 3]
'Cause I'm not old but I am tired
I'm not strong, I'm very weak
I'm not old but I am tired
I'm not here, I'm somewhere else
I'm not old but I am tired
I'm one hundred ninety-six in dog years
I have seen enough
I've seen it all
[Chorus]
I've been a really good dog
Can I come inside?
Yeah, I've been such a good girl
Can we go for a ride?
I'm on a real short leash but I like it tight
You know I'm such a sweet girl but I can really bite
Down like a lame horse, or send me to the farm where all the dogs go
