The man's in the moon and the cat's in the cradle and I'm in the dog house It never would have happened if my best friend wasn't such a a loud mouth She's heard things that she don't like about my nights out Now she's on me like old cheap suit, I'm in the a dog house Well, the dogs eating good and he don't care And I'm chewing bones in the cold night air The whole things seems just a little unfair There he sits in my favorite chair Who ever said they was man's best friend had it all wrong If she finds out you've been running with the pack you'll be dog-gone She says she's got a bone to pick, should I sit up and beg, should I fetch a stick I can't stay here scratching fleas and ticks in the a dog house Well, the dogs eating good and he don't care And I'm chewing bones in the cold night air The whole things seems just a little unfair There he sits in my favorite chair I can tell matters are getting real bad, I bit the mailman I've been chasing cars up and down the street instead of a women The dog and my wife are getting mighty thick, looking through the window just makes me sick This ol' dog better learn a new trick, I'm in the a dog house Well, the dogs eating good and he don't care And I'm chewing bones in the cold night air The whole things seems just a little unfair There he sits in my favorite chair The man's in the moon and the cat's in the cradle and I'm in the dog house It never would have happened if my best friend wasn't such a a loud mouth She's heard things that she don't like about my nights out Now she's on me like old cheap suit, I'm in the a dog house
