WATCHDOG Lyrics

I could wait by the door tonight

And when it's getting dark

I'll make sure to turn on the front porch light

My phone's on loud in case you call

I'll fight my tired eyes, I'd give my all

Cause I'd give anything to see you come home to me

You got your watchdog, you trained her real nice

She spends every night awake by the doorside

Hope your shadow passes by the bottom of the doorframe

But you never come home, and that's a real shame

Poor little watchdog, think you need a new job

Cause if you never come home, what's the purpose of the watchdog

You were supposed to be good, behave

Like coming home when the clock strikes, hey, hey, hey

I'm sitting silly waiting for you by the front door

Can you tell me what I'm doing all of this for

Can you tell me

Can you tell me

You got your watchdog, you trained her real nice

She spends every night awake by the doorside

Hope your shadow passes by the bottom of the doorframe

But you never come home, and that's a real shame

Poor little watchdog, think you need a new job

Cause if you never come home, what's the purpose of the watchdog

She was obedient and loyal, never got in any trouble

She spent her time looking out for you

You had to work another double, but you forgot to call her

Crying, please wait for me, oh

It's crashing down like falling rubble

She won't wait for you much longer

You better get your story straight

The lights are off; her eyes are tired

Doors are locked, and phone's on silent

I think it's too late for you, oh

And what's a man to do

Without his little watchdog, think you need a new job

Cause if he's never coming home, what's the purpose of the watchdog
