There’s a black dog on my shoulder again
Licking my neck
And saying she’s my friend
Solitude
The one thing I really miss
Guess my life is a compromise
There’s a black dog on my shoulder again
I’m playing with it
But it’s gone to my head
Like Carlito’s way there are no exit signs
Freeze me there
Until I am numb
My mouth is so dry
My eyes are shut tight
There’s a black dog
A coming tonight
Black dogs
A coming tonight
My dilemma but not my choice
Winston Churchill can you hear my voice
Melodrama there in my kitchen sink
Double vision
The way it is
Am I coming home to you again
Or am I stupid just by design
Does it matter if you really ever know
This black dog is out of control
My mouth is so dry
My eyes are shut tight
There’s a black dog
A coming tonight
Black dogs
A coming tonight
