Dirty Muddy Paws

(album: The Subways - 2015)

I'm taking comfort in the fact
That you could never let me go
But what am I supposed to do
When you go out and I'm alone

You made a promise you would come right home
But now I'm hearing that you're pouring over everyone we know
I call you on the telephone
But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws

My friends all say that I'm a fool
Cos I go begging on my knees
But they could never understand the way you are when you're with me

You made a promise you would come right home
But now I'm hearing that you're pouring over everyone we know
I call you on the telephone
But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws
Why can't you leave and then come back to me
Cos at this moment I'm alone and it's you I want to see
I want you here right next to me
But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws

Are you gonna come back this time
Or will you leave me towing the line
Is this the way it's meant to be
Or are you ever gonna think of me

You made a promise you would come right home
But now I'm hearing that you're pouring over everyone we know
I call you on the telephone
But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws
Why can't you leave and then come back to me
Cos at this moment I'm alone and it's you I want to see
I want you here right next to me
But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws
