Give A Dog A Bone

Lyrics

[Chorus] Give a dog a bone just leave me alone Don't call on the phone talkin' sweet When you know you're about to do a creep Boy it's not what you have, it's what you keep [Verse 1] You knew I was hungry for new love at the time You kept that in mind, soon I was blind Had to call you all the time, always asking if you're mine Really one of a line of many, maybe any would've fallen Should've known that you were stallin [Pre-Chorus] I'd ask for water from a stone You just give a dog a bone [Chorus] Give a dog a bone just leave me alone Don't call on the phone talkin' sweet When you know you're about to do a creep Boy it's not what you have, it's what you keep [Verse 2] Giving a dog a bone well the concept's kind of simple If you didn't know well it lies between the temples Of the average man, to help you understand his plan He tries to win with alibis, then tries again with sorry cries Just say good-bye, don't waste your time [Pre-Chorus] Why ask for water from a stone? You just give a dog a bone [Chorus] Give a dog a bone just leave me alone Don't call on the phone talkin' sweet When you know you're about to do a creep Boy it's not what you have, it's what you keep [Verse 3] Best believe he's up to no good When he doesn't call you like he should Of course he claims he's always busy Wait then there's the promises he never keeps Come to find out he's a liar and a cheat Best believe he wasn't this way When he begged you to stay [Pre-Chorus] I asked for water from a stone You just give a dog a bone [Chorus] Give a dog a bone just leave me alone Don't call on the phone talkin' sweet When you know you're about to do a creep Boy it's not what you have, it's what you keep [Verse 4] I told myself I wouldn't do it again But I got sucked in by his hypnotic stare Told me lies and made me care Why did I dare to try and tame an ego Too wild to be tamed When I wasn't down he had to clown Now who wears a frown [Pre-Chorus] I asked for water from a stone You just give a dog a bone [Chorus] Give a dog a bone just leave me alone Don't call on the phone talkin' sweet When you know you're about to do a creep Boy it's not what you have, it's what you keep
