I’ve had a question that’s been preying on my mind for some time 

I won’t be wagging my tail for one good reason 

It has to be a crime 



This doghouse never was the place for me, 

Runner up and second best just ain’t my pedigree 

Dm7                             Eb/F

I was so happy, just the two of us

Until this alpha male 

                    Eb/F      F/Eb

Turned up in the January sale 



         Cm7

He won’t love you 

       Fm7

Like I love you, 

            Cm7     	 	 Fm7

It won’t be long now before that puppy goes astray 

Dm7				   Eb/F

And what I like about this guy the most?.......... 

		         Cm9

He'd be my favourite lamppost 

		  Eb/F

Devil take the hindmost 



Je sais que c'est dur, mais ilfaut se faire ar changement, tu vois 

J’ai négligé le primordial pendant trop longtemps crois moi… 

Je suis consciente, je vois bien que tu souffres, mais ça 

s’attenuera 

Car c’est d’un homme plus d’un chien don't j’ai besoin pres de moi 

Cesse donc de grogner, mon choix est fait c’est comme ça 

N’en fait pas trop, ton attitude risque de t’éloigner de moi 

Faut que tu comprennes, puisque tu dis m’aimer tant que ça 

Desormais nous sommes trois, lui toi et moi 





It’s a shaggy kind of story 

Would I tell you if I thought it was a lie? 

But when the cat's away the mouse will play, 

I wouldn't dish around here 

There’s something fishy round here 



Cm7                    Fm7

I howl all night and I sleep all day 

It takes more than biscuit baby to chase these blues away 

I’ve got a long enough leash 

I could almost hang myself 

It's a dogs life loving you baby 

But you love someone else 

Now he’s moved by basket 

I’d like to put him in a casket 

I’ll wear my best collar to his funeral 



Ta mauvaise foi, j’aimerais bien que ça s’arrete 

Me separer de toi, aujourd’hui ça trotte dans ma tete 

Moi non, j’en peux plus, tu n’est q’un chien, c’est trop bete 

La situation m’avait ppourtant l’air d’etre des pius nette 

C’est clair, que je l’aime c’est un fait, ton égoisme m’inquiete 

Apres toutes ces soirées passées seuis en tete a tete 

Chaque chose a une fin, et c’est la fin de la fete 

Pour toi, car bientôt il n'y aura plus que lui et moi, lui et moi. 



        Ebm7

To have found this perfect life 

And a perfect love so strong 

Well there can't be nothing worse 

Than a perfect love gone wrong 



You said I wasn't just your Christmas toy 

I'd always be your boy 

I'd be your faithful companion 

And I would follow you through every thick and thin 

Don't need nobody else 

And we don't need him
