 crash test dummies  I'm A Dog" 
FI'm a dog, Cand I can smell your smell right G5through your Amclothes 
FAnd I espouse Gsome views that you yourself just Cmight not Fhold 
CSometimes I am Ggiven pause to think when C  
I consider what we Fcould call the good Amlife 
FWhen it comes Cto the city versus the G5country Amlife 
FWell, I must Gsay that I far prefer a Cfarmer's Fwife 
CBreakfast with the G5master in the morning C  
Feel the breeze and Fbrush against a cow's leg - Ammmm! 
GBut it seems the Dmthinkers you call Ggreatest are 
The Dmsort who often Bbfall ill young, For pine away 
How can Bbthey help but Fdrag the species Gdown? 
FThere's some debate Gabout whether instincts should be Cheld in Amcheck 
FWell, I suppose Gthat I'm a liberal in Cthis Frespect 
CI can't say I Dmliked Robinson Crusoe C  
But at least he didn't tie his Fdogs up at night Am  
GAnd it seems the Dmthinkers you call Ggreatest are 
The Dmsort who often Bbfall ill young, For pine away 
How can Bbthey help but Fdrag the species Gdown? 
Solo  
FHow come all your G5poets fall into desCpondencies? Am  
FAnd then write it down Gfor us to read every inCdigniFty? 
CNot such worthy Dmspecimens, these creatures C  
Hardly fit for Fwhat you could call the good Amlife 
GAnd it seems the Dmthinkers you call Ggreatest are 
The Dmsort who often Bbfall ill young, For pine away 
How can Bbthey help but Fdrag the species Gdown? 
How Bbcan they help but Fdrag the species GdownF  G  F  G  F  G
