Dalton Deschain & the Traveling Show - Rabid

"Right away, Bethany," he'd reply
A glimmer of hope hidden in his misshapen eyes
He'd fetch a paper from her locker
What an honor to be given commands
He asked here then behind the bleachers
Not a sound
As a furrowed concern covers his sloping brow
And as he snarls over crooked teeth
And her giggles turn to shrieks
"You're a monster and a freak
And your puppy love means nothing to me"
Oh I heard you, Bethany
You told me to run away, run away
But no one's laughing at the Dogman now
At the Dogman now, no
And you know I follow what you say, what you say
Well no one's laughing at the Dogman now, at the dog
I ran away and joined the circus
Where we make sure nobody hurts us
Never again
"Right away Casey," they reply
All the hope draining from their terrified eyes
He'd squeeze them out a little harder
With his claws all digging into their necks
The ending's never ever easy
Even now
As his trail of bodies turns him inside out
They're playing tricks on his mind
And the Dogman starts to cry
And he's howling at the sky
When they die they all have Bethany's eyes
But in his broken mind
She tells him to
Run away, run away
But no one's laughing at the Dogman now
At the Dogman now, no
And you know I follow what you say, what you say
Well no one's laughing at the Dogman now, at the dog
I ran away and joined the circus
Where we make sure nobody hurts us
Never again
You never asked me to stay
But here I'd sit
Obedient, every day
You know they let me bark the orders now
It's nothing personal, I just wanna
Make them proud
And you're the one who said to run away, run away
But no one's laughing at the Dogman now
At the Dogman now, no
And you know I follow what you say, what you say
Well no one's laughing at the Dogman now,
A rabid dog just ran away and joined the circus
Those motherfuckers all deserve this
I ran away and joined the circus
