lyrics

Lately I'm suspectin'
Frankly I'm concerned
Think I been detectin'
I've started growin' fur

Started round the nostrils
Then it reached the ears
How's it gonna' look
In 5 or 10 more years

Cleary I've become some kinda' dog
Or a field mouse or a feral hog
Some human animal this hairy pollywog
You know what that would make a good name for a blog

Wonder if I'm gettin'
Any super powers
Maybe I can shape shift
Or become solar powered

One thing's for sure
Nothing will be the same
Guess I better think up
A cool new name

Cleary I've become some kinda' dog
Or a field mouse or a feral hog
Some human animal this hairy pollywog
You know what that would make a good name for a blog

Lately I'm startin' to worry
What it means that I'm gettin' furry
Surely this is not so boring
As just another aging human story
