My Dog Songtext

von Ben Folds Five

Well, my dog wears a path
In the same line
And lately I'm thinking
I might take his advice

Well, he sees through the fence
And he thinks I'm free
Well, my cane and his shame
Look the same to me

All alone in a cage
With a headrest
There's a thing I could
Get off of my chest

And I wanna wear
The path that's true
And I wanna wear
The path with you

Out in the snow, off the leash
For years or more
I don't even know what it was
I was waiting for
Well, maybe I barked
Up the wrong tree
That was then, now I'm back,
Won't you see me?

'cause I wanna wear
The path that's true
And I wanna wear
The path with you

Oh, it's true

I used to be afraid
Of growing old
And hanging 'round
The same old place,
But I got older anyway
So won't you,
So won't you,
So won't you
Wash my fears away

Well, my dog wears a path
And that's a good sign
'cause my dog wears a path
In the same line
Say goodbye to the cage
With a headrest
'cause there's something
To get off of my chest
By now to work
In the same car
In the same jar

I think I should tell you that
I wanna wear
The path that's true
And I wanna wear
The path with you
Yeah, I wanna wear
The path with you
