about

When I was a young boy, a traveling troupe teaching dog safety visited my primary school. They taught me to never pat a dog whilst it is eating.

Such knowledge has served me well

lyrics

Don't pat a dog whilst it's eating
Don't pat a dog whilst it's eating
Don't pat a dog whilst it's eating
Don't pat a dog-

Or it will eat your face
tear off the skin (and put it back again).
Bet you didn't know that dogs were such good surgeons,
but even with such good surgery
your wife won't come back.
(Won't come back)

She took my cat
