Somewhere deep in the night
There's a child on his own
And his pulse isn't there
And the house is aglow
With the light from outside
Well the house is aglow.

There's a mattress downstairs
Full of brown peppered holes
And the horse hair is coarse
Not as coarse and as rough
As the rash thoughts that never heal sores.

Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild.

Dogs in the wild in the wild
Dogs in the wild in the wild
Dogs in the wild.

Even dogs in the wild
Could do better than this
Even dogs in the wild
Will protect and will care for
Whatever means most to them.

Even dogs in the wild
Could do better than this
Even dogs in the wild
Will care for
Whatever means most to them.

Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild.

Dogs in the wild in the wild
Dogs in the wild in the wild
Dogs in the wild.

Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild,
Even dogs in the wild.
