lyrics

I’d Rather Sing to My Dogs

I’ve sung for the prince of Egypt
in the seizième arronissement
I’ve sung in a noisy bar
I’ve sung in a noisy bar
But nobody tipped my jar

I’ve sung in a park
and people passed me by
I’ve carried a tune on the métro
I’ve carried a tune on the métro
feeling a little bit retro

but I’d rather sing to my dogs
I’d rather sing to my dogs
I’d rather sing to my dogs
cause my dogs listen to me

they may forget the words I say
but my dogs understand my mood
but my dogs understand my mood
especially when it’s time for food

rhythm and music my dogs got
they wag their tails to the beat
they wag their tails to the beat
or maybe just the smell of meat

so I’d rather sing to my dogs
I’d rather sing to my dogs
I’d rather sing to my dogs
cause my dogs listen to me
