This old dog can’t learn new tricks As long as daddys got his fix Take me down to the underground Tie me up with your loving hands and teach me how to drown Walking man can’t find his shoes He’ll drag his feet until they bruise Lead me in to your troubled mind Place the blame in my loving hands and leave the rest behind Glass of bleach and batteries I'm sewing cloth on battered knees Wake me up from this awful dream Hold me close in your loving hands while I rip the seams This old dog he’s got new tricks So slowly daddy starts to twitch Let me know if you love her more Don’t forget where you set me down when she hits the floor
