john mccutcheon - puppies (rough) lyrics
leona helmsley had a puppy
trouble is its name
she left that pup 12 million bucks
leona was insane
trouble will be buried
when she barks his final time
in a mausoleum
bigger than your house or mine.
the other end of puppy love
we have a bone to pick
with football’s richest quarterback
we’re talking michael vick
michael taught his puppies
to kill or to be killed
you gotta stop and wonder
where such thinking was instilled
we have puppies everywhere
in our cars and on out laps
and if you ever hurt a puppy
we’re gonna give you cr-p
i have a dog, i love my dog
more than i can tell
but still i wished we treated humans
nearly half as well
when humans beings fight other humans
we gather, cheer and bet
when we cage our fellow humans
how quickly we forget
we read of murder and starvation
and numbly turn the page
but if a puppy is involved
then everyone’s outraged
so we need puppies in guantanamo
puppies in darfur
so we can get upset enough
to care to find a cure
puppies need a living wage
puppies need health care
and puppies need a helping hand
from humans everywhere
all illegal alien puppies
puppies lost or lame
we rush right in to rescue them
make sure they each have names
if we treated folks in need
this well both near and far
we might become the persons
that our puppies think we are
