[3 seconds of silence] [Drum intro: deep pounding toms, building to a rolling fill] [BOOM-boom-CLAP! BOOM-boom-CLAP!] I always believed that treats were on the great God treating us I never thought that you could find them anywhere else. Rustling up above— Someone’s throwing little bits of love! Then a treat fell down— Now I’m a retriever! Paws off the ground, There’s chicken in the air! I’m well fed—ooh! I’m a retriever, A treat receiver, Without a care! [Drum intro: deep pounding toms, building to a rolling fill] [BOOM-boom-CLAP! BOOM-boom-CLAP!] [3 seconds of silence] [Sweet, high-pitched male voice, singing softly and tenderly] I was stolen from a young age, Had to fight for my life every night. The warm, strong hands reached out— Hey, you make me, make me a retriever! Retriever! Found a sunny patch and claimed it as my own, Left my ginger trousers on the chair. Got a house with heating, Servants who supply— Now they’re dropping dinner from the sky! Then a treat fell down— Now I’m a retriever! Paws off the ground, There’s chicken in the air! I’m well fed—ooh! I’m a retriever, A treat receiver— Was that my share? [Drum outro: pounding toms, rolling snare, big final cymbal crash] [BOOM-boom-CLAP! BOOM-boom-CLAP! BOOM!]
