Lyrics

I got a smelly rear
I got a dirty nose
I don't want no shoes
I don't want no clothes
I'm living like the king of the dogs
I got a piece of meat
In between my teeth
I'll bite your throat
If you move on me
I'm sovereign
'Cause I'm the king of the dogs
Polite life will fill you
Full of cancer
I don't even own a pair of pants
I'm a dancer, baby
I'm deadly
'Cause I'm the king of the dogs
I'm hanging out
Where the spirits dwell
I can smell the things
That you cannot smell
I'm deadly
I'm the king of the dogs
Written by: Hal Cragin, Iggy Pop, James Newell Jr. Osterberg, Lil Hardin Armstrong
