IT WAS THE SEVENTH OF DECEMBER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE
NIGHT
THE STREET WAS DESERTED EXCEPT FOR SMOKE AND MOONLIGHT
THE FRONT OF THE PAPERS READ THE LATEST SCANDAL
THE PEOPLE VERSUS WHEN THE DOG CHEWED THE HANDLE
IT'S A STRANGS KIND OF STORY AS FAR AS STORIES GO
IT'S THE TALE OF A MAN AND HIS TRUSTY FIDO
WITH POLICE TO THE LEFT HIM, ON THE RIGHT A DEAD
VANDAL
THE ONLY EXCUSE WAS THAT THE DOG CHEWED THE HANDLE
WITH THE STICK DE LA CANDLE
OR THE STUDY MAYBE STRANGLED
THE PROFESSOR WITH THE PISTOL
OH NO THE DOG CHEWED THE HANDLE
HE'S GOT HIS INTEGRITY, DON'T NEED NO EXCUSE
YOU CAN'T SAY DIFFERENT, GOT TO LET HIM IT LOOSE
THE GUY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN THERE BUT HE CHOSE TO
GAMBLE
HEADS YOU WIN, TALES THE DOG CHEWS THE HANDLE
WITH THE STICK DE LA CANDLE
OR THE STUDY MAYBE STRANGLED
THE PROFESSOR WITH THE PISTOL
OH NO THE DOG CHEWED THE HANDLE
OH LOOK AT IT FROM MY ANGLE
OH JUST LOOK AT IT
WITH THE STICK DE LA CANDLE
OR THE STUDY MAYBE STRANGLED
THE PROFESSOR WITH THE PISTOL
OH NO THE DOG CHEWED THE HANDLE
OH LOOK AT IT FROM MY ANGLE
OH JUST LOOK AT IT....
