stevesongs - the dog squad lyrics
[tv announcer]
in 1972, a crack commando squad of dogs were convicted of stealing tea, a crime they did not commit. they quickly escaped from a maximum security dog pound into the l.a. underground. if you have a problem (with cats) and you have some tea, you might be able to hire the dog squad
left, left, left right left
left, left, left right left
[verse 1]
we are the dog squad (we are the dog squad)
the mighty mighty dog squad (the mighty mighty dog squad)
we are the dog squad
the mighty mighty dog squad
we come from all over the the place
we bark very loud
and we march real proud
and we’re looking for cats to chase
we’ll round them up and send them into sp+ce, figuratively speaking
[verse 2]
we are the dog squad (we are the dog squad)
the mighty mighty dog squad (the mighty mighty dog squad)
we are the dog squad
the mighty mighty dog squad
we like dog biscuits and tea
we’re here on a mission
to chase all tabbies
operation c.a.t
now excuse us while we scratch our fleas
[bridge]
the golden retriever fetches gold
irish setter dances a jig
the beagle bakes our bagels
and the great dane’s really big (woof!)
the chocolate lab she’s a scientist
who studies chocolate
the husky he plays basketball
now everybody sit!
[interlude, dog sergeant]
[?]
hey, stand still! stand still when i’m talking to you!
[?]
hey now, i said “sit”, i did not say, “spit”. please, clean that off the floor. and otis, nuh+uh+uh, you know you’re not allowed on that couch. get down from there. hey dogs, dogs. gather ’round and take a knee
now, i look around and i see some some of you dogs that i’ve been in some serious battles with before. and we all know that it can get a little bit hairy out there. that cat hair, it just gets everywhere. but we have got to keep our eyes on the prize, dogs. the prize is tea. the tea, dogs. the english breakfast. the earl grey. the chamomile. and of course, i like to sit back with a sleepytime while i’m in the hot tub. not too hot, just warm. hot, sorta
but, hey! keep in mind that it is always darkest before the dawn, dogs. but we may have a dog day afternoon and it may rain cats and dogs, but you cannot just roll over and play dead. no, you cannot, dogs! you got to get out there and make me proud. now, who is with me? good! now get out there, and get those cats! go! go! go! go!
[narrator]
the cats scattered like kids at bath time. the chase was fast, and loud. once the dogs completed their mission, they returned to celebrate, singing and marching proud. (:clears throat:) ++ly
[verse 3]
we are the dog squad (we are the dog squad)
the mighty mighty dog squad (the mighty mighty dog squad)
we are the dog squad
the mighty mighty dog squad
operation c.a.t
our mission is complete
now we’re going out to eat
it’s time to collect our fee
now i wonder if the king has got some tea
left, left, left right left
