Lyrics

Sample the Dog
pAt mAcdonald

Sitting in a living room in a condo
Gazmo's on the rug with little Cassy-O
Gazmo's getting nervous
Cassy wants to sample the dog. She says:
"Bark, howl, do what you like
But if you're going to growl, just growl into the mike
We're gonna play a game called sample the dog"
Sample the dog
There's a new age family out in North Carolina
A dog named Jamaica, a daughter named China
A son who plays in a band called Sample the Dog
Third world music on the stereo
Dust on the keys of the piano
and China's in the kitchen trying to sample the dog
Sample the dog
Now Cassy can't read & China can't write
& the Board of Education mumbles in the night
A prayer for our nation: "Lord let us
Sample the dog... "
The exact same thing is happening today
In a million homes across the usa
Everybody's working, trying to sample the dog
