Spaniel is flying tonight on a plane
He's back in the pet compartment
Yodeling when it rains, and
I can see Spaniel wagging goodbye
Lawd, it looks like Spaniel
Or some fuzzy pilot with puppy eyes

They say 1st class is pretty, but I'm not in it
Spaniel says he should be there, and
I should be back here
With cat hair & spilled beer
Lawd I hear Spaniel
I hear that he has had enough

Spaniel, my brother
You are shorter than me
& you have 4 legs. Do you still feel the ache
Of the vet's exam last week
Your paws are dry, yet you dig more than I
Spaniel don't go far!! Don't lick the face of that guy!!

(musical interlude)

Spaniel my brother
You are fuzzier than me
& you have sharp teeth. Tell me do you still feel the shame
Of the poop you left on the street
Your fur is dry, but you're sloppier than I
Spaniel don't jump out!! We're 10 miles up in the sky!!

Spaniel is howling tonight on a plane
He's loose in the pet compartment
Breaking his buddies' chains
Oh & I can see Spaniel wagging Hello
Guess it must be Spaniel
Or else it's a Robin Williams show
