Seeing Eye Dog Lyrics

you're my seeing eye dog and i am blind
you take me there every time
with that winning combination of loyal and kind
your eyes like wells to the water of your mind

i want to take a long, cool drink from your bucket
to every thought i could think now, i say fuck it
i just want to go with how i feel
like my only job here
is to care for and covet you, dear

i love the way your stories seem to fall from your lips
with just enough slobber so it sparkles and drips
the way you hang the whole room on a word
like a little stick in the beak of a bird

first we touched fingers and then we touched toes
then my army surrendered
my government overthrown
i threw myself a little role reversal and followed you home
just dying to be chewed
the dog was chosen by the bone

be my seeing eye dog
cuz i am blind
just take me there
one more time
with that winning combination of loyal and kind
your eyes like wells to the water of your mind

i want to take a long, cool drink from your bucket
to every thought i could think now, i say fuck it
i just want to go with how i feel
like my only job here is to care for and covet you, dear

I think the woman in this situation knows with every logical fiber of her being that this man is nothing but trouble, so to speak, but she can't help but get lost in the fantasy of being his. So she follows him home and lets him desecrate her logic with his passionate indifference to reality. She's given up on doing the obviously wise thing and has given into his masculine charms.

Unless this is about one of her female lovers, lol, in that case, well, do the necessary rearranging of my proposal.

Yeah I was going to criticize your application of gender onto these characters, until I read the last line of your post...

I'd actually be more tempted to think this is a woman talking about a woman..."I want to take a long, cool drink from your bucket"...ahem...
