The Lyrics
fido licked a bone that day
he chased a cat
and boy, that cat was pissed
and it ain't comin' back
chased a frisbee, far and likewise, a car
it didn't stop
he took the time to chew a sandal someone'd dropped
next stop, bowl found
fido gulped his alpo down
how he bolts
he thought...one more stick...wanna fetch it
one more ball...wanna catch it
please let it roll
fido...whoa oh oh oh oh
he chases bunnies...but he's too slow
fido's a-lettin' him just go
fido...whoa oh oh oh
he thought...i can't catch me a rabbit
no, i can't seem to grab it
and oh how it goads
fido be runnin', havin' great big fun
in the mud, he floats
thinking...this is fine, i love it
its stickin' to my coat
now he's makin' like a beeline
headin' for the clothing line
clothing gets soaked
thinking...i'll be hit and i know it
all the time how i blow it
my owner explodes
fido...whoa oh oh oh
now he smells funny
skunk, he has found
fido's a-stinkin' now, ya know
fido...whoa oh oh oh
thinkin', what's this slop ?...sure is fetid
i will live to regret it
on grass, he rolls
he chased a cat
and boy, that cat was pissed
and it ain't comin' back
chased a frisbee, far and likewise, a car
it didn't stop
he took the time to chew a sandal someone'd dropped
next stop, bowl found
fido gulped his alpo down
how he bolts
he thought...one more stick...wanna fetch it
one more ball...wanna catch it
please let it roll
fido...whoa oh oh oh oh
he chases bunnies...but he's too slow
fido's a-lettin' him just go
fido...whoa oh oh oh
he thought...i can't catch me a rabbit
no, i can't seem to grab it
and oh how it goads
fido be runnin', havin' great big fun
in the mud, he floats
thinking...this is fine, i love it
its stickin' to my coat
now he's makin' like a beeline
headin' for the clothing line
clothing gets soaked
thinking...i'll be hit and i know it
all the time how i blow it
my owner explodes
fido...whoa oh oh oh
now he smells funny
skunk, he has found
fido's a-stinkin' now, ya know
fido...whoa oh oh oh
thinkin', what's this slop ?...sure is fetid
i will live to regret it
on grass, he rolls

Damn! Why didn't I think of this title?
We used to have a Miniature Schnauzer, but it died of old age... still, this parody perfectly portrays the life of a pup. (Wow, 4 P's!) DKTOS, but you still get 555s.
DKTOS, but I am giving you 5's because it is so well written and so funny! Great job!
I have been away from amiright for a while, but came back yesterday to post 3 new parodies. Please take a moment or two to
go give them a read and let me know what you think. During the time I was away, I have become a writer of original songs in collaboration with a singer/songwriter of over 30 years experience. If you get the time, please follow the link to his music page and look for any song with the pen name of Renee Hartman. I write the lyrics, he does the rest.
And please keep those great parodies coming.

GREAT OS! Love the Boz.
555 biscuits for you!!!
I'm not doggin' this one..biting satire
My dogs Jasmine and Rocky can relate to Fido in your parody!! Fetch is one of her favorite games. Parody for dog lovers everywhere. I'm pretty much of a dog lover myself. They would rather sleep in my room every night than in my parents' room. Exciting parody. You have a dog, or any pets in your house? Here's 555 chew toys for your pets!
Sir Alvin, from K-9's to Cowboys, those Skuinks can make everybody shuffle & fast !!
Ewww, our cat got skunked a few weeks ago, nasty stuff. But your parody smells sweet, love the OS. I give this one five bones.
Great Song - especially liked the next stop & Alpo lines
thanks john...thanks DJ...thanks carol...i'll check it out...thanks mark...the boz is smooth...thanks AFW...lol...thanks christie...i have 5 cats and 4 desert tortoises...thanks MNC...indeed...thanks blackjack...thanks andy
I own two dogs (a 9-year-old collie and a 3-year-old American Eskimo), but since they stay inside for the most part, I've never had to deal with them meeting skunks. But I do have to worry about them chasing my cat around the house and at them going ape over the mailman or Fedex-/DHL-/UPS- or whoever-is-shipping-my-Ebay-and-Amazon-packages man ringing the doorbell. This was a great parody of a song that is hard to find material to rewrite it to (speaking from my experience), and I'll give you 5s and an Andria Award for "Best Domestic Animal Parody".
"You better behave, CowboyDave, or I'll throw a ~BLACK & WHITE~ in your Truck Bed, Sir ! . . ." now Bunny, you wouldn't do that to CowBoyDave, would you now, honey ? Don't Skunk me, please Babe ! ! "
thanks andria....glad ya enjoyed....thanks LC...lol
