Two Dogs

Lyrics
I had two dogs In the summer of 2004 One was boot black The other whiter than a health food store Medicine hogged The floor space on the back porch Donations my monarchs Saved up to take up to the poor Oh the backyard sang A chorus of barks from Yin and Yang They played angel and demon But oh, I loved them just the same Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Strange how what heals can also kill Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh Ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh I found two dogs On the hot concrete of the back porch One in amniotic vomit The other in fetal contort Medicine clogged Their stomachs 'til they overpoured Strange how what heals can also kill They both went grey Adopting a putrid, lifeless stench I learned in death We all are unified in countenance Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh Eyes bulging like they'd finally seen the truth The type of shit a child forgets But the memory resets When you ask me in a worried fret Have you ever at least loved a pet?
