Life Of A Dog (Alternative version)

Sometimes I feel like
I don′t lead the life of a dog
Everything I try to do

Always seems to turn out wrong
People say to me
"How could you complain?"
They don't know the reasons
They don′t know the game
These days I feel like
I don't lead the life of a dog

Sometimes I feel I could just
Fall down on my knees
Would there be a single soul
To help me back on my feet
Days are goin' faster
Don′t know what′s goin' down
Got confused you could say
Never up off the ground
These days I feel like
I don′t lead the life of a dog

The Life of a Dog
The Life of a Dog

Some nights I fall asleep
Just howlin' at the moon
Everythin′ I try to say
Turns out misconstrued
Everyone I've ever known
Just use me to fill their needs
If I could lie you could say
What has to feed the machine
Sometimes I feel like
I don′t lead the life of a dog

The Life of a Dog
The Life of a Dog
The Life of a Dog

Sometimes I feel like
I don't lead the life of a dog
Everythin' I ever had
Hacked out to the bone
People laugh at me
With malice in their eyes
Hell on earth you could say
Kind of end of the line
Sometimes I feel like
I don′t lead the life of a dog

The Life of a Dog
The Life of a Dog
