(w/ rhy. fig. 1)
 Up and down the puppies' hair,
 Fleas and ticks jump everywhere.
 ('Cause of original sin)
 Down the hill fell Jack and Jill 
 and you came tumbling after
 ('Cause of original sin)

(pre-chorus)
 F            G
 Rip away the tears,
 Am              G
 Drink a hope to happy years.
     F       Esus4
 And you may find, 
       F      G
 A lifetime's passed you by.

 What would you say?
 (Don't drop the big one)
 If you were monkey on a string
 (Don't cut my lifetime)
 If you were doggy on a chain
 (Don't bite the mailman)
 What would you say?

2. I was there when the bear ate his head,
   Thought it was a candy.
   (Everyone goes in the end)
   Knock, knock on the door, who's it for?
   There's nobody in here.
   (Look in the mirror, my friend)
   I don't understand at best.
   Cannot speak for all the rest.
   The morning rise, a lifetime's passed me by.
   What would you say?

   Every dog has its day, everyday has its way
   Of being forgotten.
   Mom's it's my birthday. Would you say, hey?
   (Now, what would you say)
   What would you say?

Jam (this part is fast and hard to play but it sounds awesome)
