DOGGON' SIGN
Lyrics written and owned by Chantele Delaine
Limp in from forest
Trip into town
My boots worn clean right through
Hair matted down
I was hounded
By that sound
Well I've got to keep on movin'
Too late to turn 'round
Boxing rings inside the court yard
Referee keeping time
I step into circles
Of spectators' lines
And I'm astounded
By that chime
Is it they whose dictate my moves?
It's a doggon' sign
I can see the irony
To think that I live free
Well really I do tell
I've been roped in by that ring
Pavlovian conditioning
Once again I fell
I am just a slave to that bell
Now that the game is over
And I've survived each round
I'll treat myself something to eat
Before I blow this town
And I pound it
To the local dine
Reward myself most
With menu on biggest post
It's a doggon' sign
I can see the irony
To think that I live free
Well really I do tell
I've been roped in by that ring
Pavlovian conditioning
Once again I fell
I am just a slave to that bell
