LYRICS
You lay down with humans
You get up with fleas
You lay down with humans
You get up with fleas
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please
Sleeping ’round town
Words goin’ round
’cause those damned humans
Will bring ya to your knees
You get down with humans
You wake-up to fleas
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please
Cryin’ and scratchin’
Mange and sleaze
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please
Who’s the bad dog now
Them or we
’cause those damned humans
Do whatever they please
