Housebroken The Hotelier

[Intro]
Well we called off your guard as we entered the yard
To convince you to redirect some of that rage
Because who fed you rocks while they ate their thanksgiving?
And who left you out all alone in their cage?

[Verse 1]
And when you were a pup, well I watched you so close
You ran straight to the distance allowed by his post
You got kicked, you got choked, phrases crept up your spine
When he said, "We must keep our bitches in line"
And on his poker nights, says the same of his wife
He's the top dog, pack leader, a true alpha-male
So make no sudden moves, keep your nose from the border
You move fast, you eat last this side of pecking-order

[Verse 2]
So why don't you come with me? We've got acres with streams
We won't keep you in cages, make you beg for your treats
We won't tell you to heel, though you might need some time to
Dig up those old bones your young self left behind
You said, "Your offer is nice but here should suffice
Yeah, my younger years were something but that isn't my life
Master's all that I've got, he keeps me having a purpose
Gives me bed, keeps me fed, and I'm just slightly nervous of
What I might do if I were let loose
If I caught that mail car or ate garbage for food
So, as I bare all my teeth
I will ask of you please to just leave."
