Hey, BulldogAlice Cooper

Released: October 24, 2006

Songwriter: Paul McCartney John Lennon Lennon-McCartney

Sheepdog standing in the rain
Bullfrog doing it again
Some kind of happiness is measured out in miles
What makes you think you're something special when you smile?

Child-like, no one understands
Jackknife in your sweaty hands
Some kind of innocence is measured out in years
You don't know what it's like to listen to your fears

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
Yeah, you can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

C'mon now
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Big man walking in the park
Wigwam, you're frightened of the dark
Some kind of solitude is measured out in you
You think you know me, but you haven't got a clue, do ya?

You can talk to me
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to?
You can talk to me
You can talk to me
Yeah, you can talk to me
If you're lonely you can talk to me

Oh, bite me Steve
C'mon now
Oh, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Hey bulldog
Hey, hey bulldog
Hey, hey, hey bulldog
What is that? A gay bulldog?
Oh, where's Paris? You jump out of her purse?
Hey, hey bulldog
Ah, bulldog
Give it to me, Steve
One more time, c'mon, c'mon
Hey, hey bulldog
You ain't no bulldog
You is a California Chihuahua
In Detroit, we have bulldogs
Hey, bulldog
Bull, bulldog
Somebody put a muzzle on him
Bull, bulldog
Quit peein' on my leg
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, bulldog
Roll over, play dead
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, bulldog

C'mon, big bulldog

Alice Cooper

Alice Cooper is the stage name and ‘fun villain’ character of Vincent Furnier. Cooper became the target of parents and ministers for his dark lyrics and gory theatrical performances that earned him the title Godfather of Shock Rock. Despite once claiming the name was conjured from a ouija board that told him he’s the reincarnation of a 17th century witch, Cooper laughs the topic off with flippant answers like “It was either a Scrabble board or a bowl of alphabet soup” and “I didn’t want a name like Iron Butterfly or Black Sabbath. I wanted it to be something your aunt might be called.”

The band Alice Cooper was originally signed by Frank Zappa to his own record label. Their first notoriety came when Cooper tossed a wayward chicken (possibly arranged by long-time manager Shep Gordon) into the crowd, who then tore it apart at the 1969 Toronto Rock ‘n’ Roll Revival Festival. Newspapers claimed he’d bit the bird’s head off and drank its blood. Zappa advised them to not deny the story and Cooper used it as inspiration to make his character darker.

The band’s teaming with producer Bob Ezrin for their third album Love It To Death led to their US breakthrough with a top 30 hit “I’m Eighteen” in early 1971. By then, the band was already infamous for their stage show, which had escalated into simulated torture and executions. That same year, Killer was released with its two singles “Under My Wheels” and “Be My Lover” finding moderate US success, and both albums being certified gold the following year.
