It's a Dog's Life
by James ZealyGet Fed
Sleep all day
Play and cuddle to keep their humans demons away
It's a dog's life
Bark at strangers
Pretend to be the house protector
Bravely back under a table
It's a dog's life
Cookie, cookie where is the cookie
Rewards for good babies
Conning their owners into a treat
It's a dog's life
Sleep curled in an arm
The non speaking comfort of utter devotion
Family members as dear as any other
It's a dog's life
Senses anguish knows the need
Soothes and cares with Godspeed
A companion when no one else cares
It's a dog's life
As I reflect on a dog's existence
No work, just play and subsistence
Being a dog could be all right
As long as my human is trained right
