[Verse 1]
I want a dog, a chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, you can get lonely
[Verse 2]
Don't want a cat
Scratching its claws all over my habitat
Giving no love and getting fat
Oh, you can get lonely
And a cat's no help with that
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I want a dog to walk in the park
When it gets dark my dog will bark at any passers-by
Oh, you can get lonely
I want a dog
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
I want a dog, a chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, you can get lonely
I want a dog
I want a dog, a chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, you can get lonely
[Verse 2]
Don't want a cat
Scratching its claws all over my habitat
Giving no love and getting fat
Oh, you can get lonely
And a cat's no help with that
[Interlude]
[Verse 3]
I want a dog to walk in the park
When it gets dark my dog will bark at any passers-by
Oh, you can get lonely
I want a dog
[Interlude]
[Verse 4]
I want a dog, a chihuahua
When I get back to my small flat
I want to hear somebody bark
Oh, you can get lonely
I want a dog
