[Verse 1: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
I wanna fuck a dog in the ass, he wants to
Fuck a dog in the ass, I wanna fuck a dog, that's right kids
I tried to fuck your mom in the ass, tried to fuck your dad in the ass
Could only find the dog and his ass

[Chorus: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
We wanna fuck a dog in the ass, we wanna
Fuck a dog in the ass, we wanna fuck a dog

[Verse 2: Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
I tried to fuck a fucking pirate in the ass, arr, me and me
First mate, ya scurvy cur! Tried to fuck a fucking pirate
But I found the dog, arr, that was no pirate, man
That was thy own sister! (It's a Mexican pirate)

[Chorus Tom DeLonge & Mark Hoppus]
We wanna fuck a dog in the ass, we wanna
Fuck a dog in the ass, wanna fuck a fucking dog

[Outro: Tom DeLonge]
Fuck you!

​​blink-182

blink-182 set off the 1990s storm of pop-punk, blazing a trail in the genre with electrifying riffs and memorable lines—“Fuck a Dog,” anyone? The band has seen some lineup changes over the years, but its core trio (Tom DeLonge, Mark Hoppus, and Travis Barker) has mostly stood the test of time. As of 2015, DeLonge left the band to pursue other projects.

Founded in 1992 in Poway, California (a suburb in San Diego), DeLonge, Hoppus, and former drummer Scott Raynor formed the band in Raynor’s bedroom, writing songs for their demos, and playing practical jokes along the way. Initially, under the name Blink, the trio was forced to change the name to avoid a lawsuit with the Irish pop-rock group of the same name, so they added “182” at random (fans continue to speculate what “182” means to this day).

After releasing their demo album Buddha, blink-182 released Cheshire Cat in 1995 under Cargo Records. While not a major success at the time, the album generated buzz from the Southern California punk scene and major labels alike. After being signed to MCA Records, the band released Dude Ranch in 1997 with the hit singles “Dammit” and “Josie”.
