What if my doggy could learn how to read?
Would the library have all the books he might need?
Would he study the types and the traits of his breed?
What if my doggy could learn how to read?
What if my doggy could write me a note?
Would he fold up the paper and sail it by boat?
Could I make heads or tails of the things that he wrote?
What if my doggy could write me a note?
What if my doggy knew how to do math?
Would he add up the hours that passed 'till his bath?
Or subtract yellow flowers from grass on the path?
What if my doggy knew how to do math?
What if it turned out my doggy could talk?
Would he stop every stranger he met on his walk?
Would he babble and bop while they stood there in shock?
What if it turned out my doggy could talk?
My doggy can't write, or subtract, or chit chat,
but he IS good at catch and at chasing the cat
and at racing to me from the place he was sat,
just to
lick
my
whole
face...!
And I'm happy with that.

Mighty mighty wicky wicky mighty mighty woe woe
Wouldn’t it be cool to be like G.I JOE
Cruising with Barbie goin to the might rock show
Couldn’t make heads or tails of where to go
Sometimes toys flow from the mind I find
With different thoughts of all kind of ways
Mighty mighty wicky wicky mighty mighty woe woe
Only you can prevent forest fire
Finding the nature of human desire
Comic books are cool I read heroes for hire
Mighty mighty wicky wicky mighty mighty woe woe
Stuck in a paradox of the mind
Answers escape the madness that I find
Music is a relation to the world you see
It’s the answer to a prayer from me to you
Mighty mighty wicky wicky mighty mighty woe woe
