If I Were a Dog Lyrics

If I were a dog
I could stare at your beauty for extended periods of time
And you'd never even notice
Nor would you probably care
Cuz dogs are prone to stare

If I were a dog
I could walk with you down the city street without raising a suspicion
Perhaps you'd pity me
When I followed you home
You'd let me in and give me a milkbone

I don't know if we could make it work
But I'm eager to give it a try
I'm open to the possibility
That the life of a dog could be the life for me

If I were a dog
I'd have an excuse for all this drooling every time
You walk into the room
'Cuz that's just what we do
Few ever wonder why
Ah, but if you only knew

If I were a dog
I would not hesitate to sit at your feet and beg for your affection
I'd use my big brown eyes
To get into your heart
Maybe we could go for walkies in the park

I don't know if we could make it work
But I'm eager to give it a try
I'm open to the possibility
That the life of a dog could be the life for me

But it would probably never work in the end
You'd get sick and tired of me biting all your boyfriends
And I'd always want to sleep on the bed
Ooooo
