Out to the doghouse with you, that's what she said
You've been inside too long, now, I must clean the mess
Go in the backyard with you and practice your tricks
Go take yourself for a walk, you make me sick
You're just a doggy
In a snap, you're fetching the bone
And you're barking when she calls
You're hiding behind the fence, you've been disobedient
Your fun and playfulness is so very becoming
But she's got you by the reins, and there is no running
Conditioned to salivate at the first sound of the bell
Feeding you the remains of, of yesterday's meal
Can you hear her calling from within the house?
Well, you're just a doggy
In a snap, you're fetching the bone
And you're barking when she calls
You're hiding behind the fence, you've been disobedient
Shape up, boy!
Oh, your fun and playfulness is so very becoming
But she's got you by the reins, and there is no running
Conditioned to salivate at the first sound of the bell
Feeding you the remains of yesterday's meal
Can you hear her calling from within the house?
If you would stop barking, she might let you out
At last, she opened the back gate
You're released, you're now free to roam
You've been waiting for this moment for sometime and now, you must go
Into the fields, where there is laughter
There is peace and you're comfortable
Try to hold on now, before she calls you home
Oh, you're in the doghouse
'Cause you're just a dog
You're in the doghouse
You're just a dog
You're in the doghouse
And you're just a dog
You're in the doghouse
'Cause you're just a dog
Only a doggy
It's a dog
You're in the doghouse
Oh, you're just a dog
You're in the doghouse
Oh, you're just a dog
You're in the doghouse
You're just a dog
