Verse 1:

One of this days, I'm gonna like a dream...
Chasing your ghost, patting my head like a scream...
Locking me up - taking me out - turning a friend into dust
Why give me bread, when all your touch ends up dead...

When did I choose? How did I lose? set me free...
Give me a break, my only mistake was to be...
Without a tag, stuffed in a bag, stolen away from my nature
If I'm the best, how do you treat all the rest

Chorus:

Shelter me, Shelter me, Shelter me
Shelter me, Shelter me, Shelter me
Like a dog, Like a dog, Like a dog

Verse 2:

Maybe you see, some other uses for me...
Lab in a Lab, I'd rather bark up a tree...
Don't wanna stay, why should I play?
Don't wanna wait by the door
Give me the ball
And I just roll over and die...

Chorus.

(organ solo)

Chorus.

One of this days, I'm gonna like a dream...
