Songtexte Dog Door - Tom Waits

(Waits/Brennan/Linkous)

Oh mother I want a dog
I want a little dog
I saw a little dog
His name is happy

Well this is me...
Don't get close to me now...
I could be a shopkeeper
We'll call 'em...

She 'bout six foot four
Now she's a wrecking-ball
Back over here together
She brought the bad weather with her

She got me coming through the dog door
She got me coming through the dog door

Got me a pitchfork
Oh step-ladders

You oughta walk away
Well you can't, but you oughta
Climb the brick up to the stairs
She got long black hair
But don't sit there
He let me keep the... chair

She got me coming through the dog door
She got me coming through the dog door

Pitchfork (pitchfork)
Crowbar (crowbar)
Clawhammer (clawhammer)
Hot tar (hot tar)

She got me through her middle name
But she can make it rain
She's a small town jail
And she's starving in the belly of the whale

She got me coming through the dog door
She got me coming through the dog door

Pitchfork (pitchfork)
Crowbar (crowbar)
Clawhammer (clawhammer)
Hot tar (hot tar)
