The Man With The Dogs

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I am no one

But I'm well known

For I am the Man with the Dogs

I stare at you shopping

Watch while you're walking

Two dogs run around your toes

You turn around

Two eyes break you down

Now, who does that guy think he's starin' at?

Stop in your tracks

You're being laughed at

You armored ego is nude

And I do and I do

Crack up 'cos I'm getting to you

I see you I see you

And you're pretty self-conscious too

Down to your church

I'm looking for victims

Spell of the Man with the Dogs

I'll haunt you

And follow you to work

That ghost is back again

Creep into you

I won't go away

You're taking yourself too seriously

I smile as you frown

And turn to walk away

Your habits for all to see

I see a shrew

I see you

And the rodent things you do

You see you I see you

And you're pretty self-conscious too

And I'm gonna crack your mask

Yeah and I'm gonna laugh

Open wideâ€¦.

Saw you again

You'll see me tomorrow

Curse of the Man with the Dogs

You may not like me

You won't forget me

Not safe even in Walgreen's

They've seen me

Ask your friends

'Oh I know him'

Seen but I'm never heard

By your lot

A stare

Is worth a thousand biting phrases

See how stupid you are?

I dare you I dare you

To erase my laser tattoo

You see you you see you

And you're pretty self-conscious too

And I'm gonna crack your mask

Yeah, and I'm gonna laugh

What's inside?

Is it pubic hair

Is it cobweb air

I bet you just don't care
