Big Guard Dog

Nothing to do but stay in my place
so Mr. Fang's pigeons will be safe,
to fly around the sky.

Chained to the fence
I will never chew through these iron bonds,
tied to my post, what a life!

The pigeons leave the dovecote
every day while I waste away
waiting for Mr. Fang.



Big Guard Dog

Big guard dog! Chained to the fence
You will never chew those iron bonds
Or fly free like Mr. Fang's pigeons.

You'd have a better life in England
Running in the park following your nose
To this oak and that elm.

But, here you are, big pal, tied to a post
Nothing to do but stay in your place,
so Mr. Fang's pigeons will be safe.
