You Can Bring Your Dog Lyrics

This song is classic floozy rock!

I thought "You can bring your dog" was kind of a coy way of saying: Make yourself at home! Get comfortable at my place! I got anything you want, hence: I got three (dogs). Remember, this is the Santa character singing and she is all about flirting and seduction the old school way.

And then she gets a little kinky towards the end with, "You can bring your mom."

Finally, she kind of breaks down and admits that despite all her insistences that she's not looking for a mate, she begs, "Please now bring your love!" admitting that she is quite lonely.

Bottom line is: it's catchy!
