lyrics

Mankind is undeserving of the trust and loyalty
That's been imparted to us by man's best friend unconditionally
We reward their affections with unspeakable acts of cruelty
An open hand to those who cannot understand
Our language gives us away: "I wouldn't treat a dog that way"
Inferring the acceptance of a tolerable level of abuse and neglect
But they return again and again
Eager to please, can't comprehend
How the humans they love can be so inhumane
We take them in our homes and they offer love and trust
Then we blame them when we fall short in helping them to adjust
Don't forget that we asked them to come and live with us!
Interspecies obligation!
Our language gives us away: "I wouldn't treat a dog that way"
Inferring the acceptance of a tolerable level of abuse and neglect
But they return again and again
Eager to please, can't comprehend
How the humans they love can be so inhumane
