conversation with a dog - sting lyrics
i asked my dog what he thought the best in man
he said, “the love you dispense to me twice daily from a can.”
i said, “why do you think my question funny?
and where would you be without my money?”
i said, “there may be some quality in us you must treasure.”
“it’s despair,” he said, “of which your money is the measure.”
walk like a dog, like anybody can
i said, “what about our politics, philosophy, our history?”
he said, “if there is something admirable in these it is a mystery.”
“but there must be something in our system tell me at your leisure.”
“it’s despair,” he said, “of which your borders are the measure.”
walk like a dog, talk like a man
walk like a dog, like anybody can
i said, “what about technology, computers, nuclear fission?”
“i’m terrified of radiation, hate the television.”
i said, “there must be something in our scientific treasure.”
“it’s despair,” he said, “of which your weapons are the measure.”
“feed me, you can beat me. i will love you till i die
but don’t ask for admiration and don’t ever ask me why.”
i said, “why wait till now to demonstrate displeasure?”
“it’s despair,” he said, “of which my silence was the measure.”
walk like a dog, talk like a man
walk like a dog, like anybody can
