00:12A stick is okay, but hardly alive. A stick is static and stays where it lands.
00:19But toss a ball, man, and I'm electrified, on fire, and ecstatic as it leaves their hands.
00:26Drop it, they command, and I don't know why, but I always have to take some time to comply.
00:33Then burning for them to once again let it fly at their circles of yearning like I'm fixin' to die.
00:45God, I love the feeling of rubber in my teeth. I'll shake a ball thrown until the cows come home.
00:51Or snaggin' on the fly like a greased lightning streak. Or snaggin' on the bounce like a canine cyclone.
00:58But then they call it a day. And no matter how much I pray, beg, bark, or moan.
01:07Oh, god damn, my humors, they let me down again.
01:15I got the labrador blues, ain't no man's best friend.
01:21They got me chewin' all the shoes, that's my go-to drug.
01:27Oh, these labrador blues got me pissin'.
01:35Oh, pissin' all night.
01:51Oh, they're not here.
01:54Where have they gone?
01:55Why can't my people just stay home?
01:59Or if they have to go, why can't they take me along?
02:02No, there's nothing I hate more than bein' alone.
02:05When I'm a good boy, I can sit and I can shake.
02:09And I'll go along with stay for a bite of steak.
02:12Every day's an adventure, but never as great as what I hope for in the morning when I first awake.
02:19There's never enough walking, running, or eating, petting, or ball-fetching, swimming, or sleeping.
02:26A dog's life is anything but a bowl of cherries.
02:29Lord, it's a mountain of wands and a dearth.
02:35Yeah, dearth, I'm a good friend.
02:44My humans don't get it, don't even seem to care.
02:47That I'd be followed in forever and ever anywhere.
02:51I can't make them see how it's so unfair.
02:54They're mindless of my misery, deaf to my despair.
02:57Always calling it a day when what I want is a wee.
03:01Oh, my dog's life is an inconstant thing.
03:04I'm all full of rollercoastering.
03:09Anything, anything but a tree.
03:21Goddamn my humans, I'm all alone again.
03:24I got the Labrador blues, ain't no man's best friend.
03:28No dog was ever born to sit growling in the gloom.
03:31But they let me hear howling, howling at the moon.
03:35Goddamn my humans, they've let me down again.
03:40I got the Labrador blues, ain't no man's best friend.
03:48They got me chewing on their shoes.
03:52My go-to drug, yeah.
03:55These old Labrador blues got me pissing.
04:01Oh, I see all of them.
04:11Oh, I see all of them.
04:12Oh, I see all of them.
04:15Oh, I see all of them.
04:18Oh, I see all of them.
04:19Oh, I see all of them.
04:20Oh, I see all of them.
04:21Oh, I see all of them.
