Empty Kennel Lyrics

He was a friend and a hairy companion

Two big brown eyes just a-staring at the sun

His tail would wag in the summer breeze

And gently caress my cheek

The swimming pool attendant couldn't save him

That old fella he weighed too much

He waved goodbye as he sank out of sight

Like a crab in a workmans' lavvie



[Spoken]

Ah, yeah, Old Doug

What a gay old Alsatian he was

He was like a brother to me

I remember, he was so portly his saddle wouldn't fit properly and I had to use an old mattress

Sometimes on warm summer's evening I used to get into the kennel with him and we'd sip hot water and examine his collection of Nazi regalia for hours



But know that old kennel is empty

But I might use it for storing engine parts

Or block up the hole and turn it upside down

And use it as a coracle



But for now I'm going to use it for private reasons

At midnight when the moon is full

And tonight I'd like to use it with you

And you

And you

And you

In fact–all of yous
