lyrics

Mean dog, Mean Dog, Mean Dog

when he was a puppy
he was kicked and beaten
beaten with a rolled up NY Times
even way back then there was something eating
eating at him keep inside

You see his daddy was a loner
a pincher ya might say
a doberman to be exact
and everyone called his mother a bitch
if you were him how would YOU react

Mean Dog, Mean Dog. Mean Dog

Well I met him at the homeless shelter he was hungry
beggin for some table scraps
he only growled when I threw pocket money
as if to say my troubles run deeper that that
ya see they used to throw stones at his dog house for fun
he broke his chain
and bit the neighbor kid
and ever since then he been on the run
yeah, just like some fugitive

Mean Dog, Mean Dog. Mean Dog

he still covers in the corner and pees
and everyone turns their head in disgust
but he doesn't even care who sees
no, he dosent even blush

(Break)

Yeah, he still sits and howls at the moon
and squats in some nasty place
but that sick puppy would just as soon
bite your hand than lick your face

Mean Dog, Mean Dog. Mean Dog
How'd ya get so mean?
