I belong to you
A human has to want to care for that to happen
So with you by my side I don't need anyone else
And since we're doing flashbacks
Used to think that I was chosen
I thought I was the perfect catch
Despite the fact I'm shy a small limb
I had the head and heart to match
I was runt of the litter
But was never a quitter
Kept my nose held high
So I'd look much bigger
Side by side
With my brothers and sister
That picture looked just fine
And though it took me a minute
When it came to beginning
I was part of the pack
I was a puppy that was winning
Never thought for a second
I was different until they said "goodbye."
I had to ask myself "why?"
I'm alone
People look at me with such surprise
Did I do something wrong?
Nobody stops to say "hi"
They just simply move on
What a lesson to learn so young
How you might not be
Do you really need to belong?
Belong? belong?
Be a note in someone else's sweet song?
Come on. come on
Though you might be the perfect key
To bring their world in harmony
No one really needs to belong.
Belong. belong
Especially not you, you and me
Family road trips were a dream
Come here boy
I'd face the sun and taste the air
Good boy. get in the car
Could hardly control myself
Or my tiny puppy dog bladder
Ahhhh
Seems I was prone to pee like everywhere
Ugh. not good
Then suddenly that first forever
Well it turned to never
They said "hit the road doggy
Get on back to the shelter
Find some new folks
Glad to clean your piss off their leather
It'll take no time at all"
So I'm back where I started
Nother family departed
In the corner of a kennel
Tucking tail and broken-hearted
Praying for a new home
With an owner who'll understand this dog
Started to ask myself "why?"
I'm alone
No one wants to take me for a ride
Down the open road
I'm a dog who peed one too many times
I suppose
No one wants me?
All right!
I'm strong
That's fine with me
Cause I don't really need to belong
Belong. belong
A third verse in someone else's love song?
It's wrong. I'm wrong
Even though they might need a special breed
To make their empty lives complete
No one really needs to belong
Belong. belong
Especially not you
You and me
But mutt you can't let those one or two abandonment incidents stop you
Next up was the drunk
Who tied me to a pole
Summer heat rainfall
And the winter snow
Ok but
Round three was a couple
With a naughty child
Pull my tail cut my nails
And she was always loud
Well
Number four
Seemed sane from the start
Till her boyfriend
Broke her heart
She said "ruff it!"
Left me in the park
And the fifth one died
What?!
He died
Was an impulse suicide
But he left me still alive
Funny they had one thing in common besides leaving
The tv -- that light-up picture box they tuned into every night
Stories about four-legged pooches playing basketball
Or telling jokes or curled up warm in human beds
They loved those dogs cheered for them
Right before they clicked off the light
And locked me in a cage
So you wonder why people
I'm not giving a sequel
Cause they're bound to put you down
Let you know you're not equal
And these belly rub kisses
They're a mask I can see through
Not real love
So there's no head scratching
Their predictable actions
There's a backdoor locking
That's just waiting to happen
And a dog is a dog
Dog is a dog
I'm a dog!
Just a dog!
And I don't really need to belong!
Belong! belong!
I won't spend another second
Where they put me on
Gone!
I'm gone!
In fact I know they'll worship me
When they see me on that silver screen
No one really needs to belong!
Especially not you
You and me
You and me
Gonna take a walk for a bit buddy
Got another scene to go over
Then we can make camp
Hey it's only temporary
Then...paradise
