These prison bars I sit behind
From which there is no escape.
Why didn't I get a second chance
But, now it is too late.
I tried to live my master's way
To put instincts aside.
To disobey meant punishment
And oh, how hard I tried.
I didn't mean to trash the house
I did it just for fun.
It's boring being in the house
With no place I can run.
And when I got to go outdoors
He put me on a chain.
I'd run around in circles
Till he'd come out again.
Uh oh, he found the hole I dug
I did it to stay cool.
He beat me with his balled up fists
Oh, why is he so cruel?
My tail tucked between my legs
I'm so scared that I pee.
It doesn't matter what I do
He's just so hard to please.
He doesn't even like the song
I howl every night.
He yells "shut up", and out he comes
To start another fight.
I'm battered, bruised and all alone
Is this how life should be?
When all I wanted was his love
And true acceptance of me.
For I can't help the way I am
At times I feel so strange.
I guess I'm like my ancestors
That once had roamed the range.
So, here I sit on death row
Trapped behind these bars.
Soon to be a spirit
Free amongst the stars.
I guess I'll never understand
The punishment that he,
Gave me each and every day
For me just being me.
