big dog

One day I'll live in an apartment with my big dog

I will hide him under the lamps and curtains

And when he needs to go out, we'll escape without a sound

Big dog, I won't let you be found

But big dog, I am sorry

I'm not sure how long I'll play this game

When you're scratching at the closets and I know that you're in pain

Sugar, I won't let them take you away

And one day, I will stop

At highway rest stops

And let big dog out of the car

But right now, I don't have my license

And big dog won't make it far

But I still see him chasing pigeons in the stars

Big dog, I'm so sorry

For how long I'll play this game

When you're scratching at the closets and I know that you're in pain

Sugar, I won't let them take you away

Sugar, I won't let them take you away
