The Lyrics

For some reason, the Searchers pronounced the word pins, as pins-ah. I'm not sure why but, it did allow me to rhyme it with Pincer. They also did the same thing in a couple of other places in the song so, being a pacing purist, I followed suit.
I saw him today, I had some mace
But it had no effect, and I knew
I had to run away
Or, my behind, he would fillet
Wish he'd go away

They don't keep him in, a
Doberman Pincer
They leave him there, untied
He wants to shred my hide

Hey, now if I was smart, I'd buy a gun
Didn't think it through, but now I see
It's down to him or me
Shoot him in the head, or stop their mail instead
For now I have to flee
I'm dead if I freeze
My male bag he will seize
Yeah, in teeth sharp as scissors
Please keep that Doberman in
Scarin' me, scarin' me

Why don't they stop and get some chain that's strong,
Real strong, so strong
Why don't they chain him, a chain that's not too long

Because I saw him today, I had some mace
But it had no effect, and I knew
I had to run away
Or, my behind, he would fillet
Wish he'd go away

They don't keep him in, a
Doberman Pincer
They leave him there, untied
He wants to shred my hide

Oh, Doberman Pincer
Doberman Pincer
Doberman Pincer

I haven't heard TOS in a while, except the first part is on Megadeth's "Use The Man". 5s

Somber 5s. The latest pit-bull mauling killed a 12-year-old kid in San Francisco.

I've been very wary of large dogs since a Shepard ripped my 6-yr old cousin's palm off her hand. Nice job. 555

Very good bite to this....Hey, Rick...looks like we both went to the dogs, today...
Rick C - June 07, 2005 - Report this comment
Thanks, AFW. Yeah, maybe we should collaborate on a puppy parody?

A little item of interest here: did you know that you can often gauge how old somebody is by what kind of dog they worry about? People growing up in the 90s are afraid of pit bulls, in the 80s it was Rottweilers, in the 70s dobermans. And if you are afraid of German shepherds you are old as the hills... (sorry Dee). ;-)
