歌词
This song is about my dog and also about a
Brand new dance called The Greyhound Shuffle
Come on boy, let's go into the pet shop and get you some bones
I'm so fond of you
That's a good boy, do your tricks for the man
I got a pet greyhound, he runs pure fast
And when he's in a race, kid, he never comes last
He's got God's paws, his name is Lavender
I circle off his fucking birthday on the calendar
I leave it hanging by his leash beside the banister
In the pet shop, I only deal with the manager
And I buy his food in a big content canister
The manager is sound and his first name is Alistair
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
Lavender, I know you'd never bite me
Or scratch your ass upon the carpet
Just to rile and spite me
Your hairy balls, your slender jaws
If you were the Pope, they'd call you Pope John Paws
When I have a rope, I take you on long walks
The monkey says "Ooh" and the seagull squawks
I don't give a fuck when the neighbours talk
They're just jealous of your figure and your greyhound's cock
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle is not just a dance, kid
It's a state of unrest
When you feel so inspired by his performance in the trailer of Panama
That you write a letter to Brendan Gleeson every day for six months
That's the Greyhound Shuffle
When a police come to your door
Talking 'bout shoplifting Egyptian cotton sheets
That's the Greyhound Shuffle
When your best friend who you've known all of your life
One day turns around and asks you to
Blow cocaine up his ass with a straw
That's the Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle is not the butter on your toast
The Greyhound Shuffle is not your new shoes
The Greyhound Shuffle is not the look
Of endearment in your mother's eyes
The Greyhound Shuffle is not "LOL", "OMG" or "random"
The Greyhound Shuffle is not for sale
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
The Greyhound Shuffle
