Big Dog lyrics

=======================
Rolf Harris - Big Dog
=======================

This great big wolf hound`s standing staring at me,
Licking his chops and weighing me up for tea.
I`m a guy who don`t scare easily.
That`s the truth, cor, look at that tooth,
And he`s just standing, slobbering and panting, Looking at me.

They never had this great dog here yesterday.
Her old man`s bought him just to scare me away.
I bet he`s in there laughing, shouting `Hooray`.
And I`m scared to death, and puppy dog`s breath,
is coming faster, it`s gonna be disaster,
I daren`t run away.

Her dad`s got a right to object to the way I dress,
I guess.
But to buy a huge pup to tear me up,
Look his jaws and his paws and his maws all wet,
It`s not sweat, it`s saliva,
and he`ll be the sole survivor.
That`s pure vindictiveness.

So, when his great mastiff has torn me limb from limb,
What`ll his precious daughter think about him.
I`m not very bright but I`m certainly not that dim.
You see, then, her father,
He will have made me a martyr (you see).
And when me head`s been torn to shreds,
She`s gonna blame him.

Sounds gory, don`t it?
I`ve turned green.
Still I might as well go in a blaze of glory,
If you know what I mean.
Just the same, I wish I had the courage to run.
Either that or I wish I had a dirty great gun.
Well, if I really gotta die then I better get it over and done.
Cor, that dog`s immense,
Still, here I go, over the fence.
Go on, dog, go on, treat me as lunch meat,
Savage me and crunch me, here`s me foot, have fun.
