Kicking The Dog

(álbum: It's Spooky - 1989)

One, two, three

I want to know where she goes
I want to know what she does
I wonder, who are these people
She likes so much better than me
She feels bad enough
Things did not work out

And when she sees me
And she lets her guard down
She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong
She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong
And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all

I said I had a girlfriend
Made me scared of the world
The way it sounds when I wrote it down
Makes her hate that girl
I turn myself inside out to put the blame on her

And when she sees me
And she lets her guard down
She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong
She's kicking the dog, she's doing wrong
And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all

We walk around and try to talk
But I'm just twisting her arm to try and get what I want
I just don't know when to stop
I'm twisting her broken arm
I'm twisting her broken arm

I'm kicking the dog, I'm doing wrong
We're kicking the dog, we're doing wrong
And it doesn't help anyone, no, not at all
Kicking the dog
We're kicking the dog
Kicking the dog
Stop kicking the dog
