Moon Barks At The Dog Lyrics
All we ate today was cake
I pray the lord, our teeth to break
Running off like mocker's jaw
With blocks that beg to get knocked off
Eight ball or apple to bite
As snatchers cast them to the night
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Darkness on the edge of town
Is swimming in stereo sound
Boss is not my cup of tea
Averse to such authority
One, one, one
One cup of hemlock on the rocks
One, one, one
One cup of hemlock coming up
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Weep with me in 4/4 time
I pray the lord, our teeth to break
With blocks that beg to get knocked off
As snatchers cast them to the night
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Is swimming in stereo sound
Averse to such authority
One cup of hemlock on the rocks
One, one, one
One cup of hemlock coming up
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Young tongue set on fire
Moon barks at the dog tonight
Weep with me in 4/4 time
Weep with me in 4/4 time
I love this song for it's musicality, lyrical content, it's cadence & it's rhythm. It's vocally beautiful too. As for it's meaning, well with no-one posting here, even after such a long time, I guess it will forever remain a mystery. p.s. when followed by Happy Alone (by the same band) this song somehow sounds better. Try it.
