Jeered at by the pedigree dogs His home's some dark corner Tiring runs up and down Endless sniffing around Through the eyes of a stray In a rainy morning noise Frozen to the bones Angry, emptiness Trembling Holes Nights Loneliness Struggle and despair Trembling Holes Nights Loneliness Struggle and despair Jeered at by the pedigree dogs His home's some dark corner Tiring runs up and down Endless sniffing around Through the eyes of a stray In a rainy morning noise Frozen to the bones Angry, emptiness One little hope through That lurks in his eyes Keeps him alive sudden Laugh of a child Waiting to play with him and stroke him Might call him And take him away from this nightmare This horror of a stray life Trembling, he runs On the winding streets With no end and nowhere to stop for rest Trembling, he growls At the reach out hands Who will strike or feed, all's the same
