[Verse] And if I had a dollar for every stillborn fly I'd fill my house with spiders And silver lighter flames that kiss propane [Verse 2] Drove through the desert with a bass heavier than I've ever heard it In a fluorescent camper van How did it get there? [Chorus] Bring my dog back home from India Come back to the bone Like I know that we don't connect that way now But I'll love whatever comes back Now I feel like myself Since you came back with my pen in your mouth [Verse 3] You came home Growed up like a man Looking at me like a friend Born in a second stance Returned from India with a straw hat New nose and new tattoo on your back [Chorus] Bring my dog back home Bring him back to the bone Like I know that we don't connect that way now Dog came walking back home Like a sponge on Like a sponge on a bone Counting all the ways I can't stop counting the ways that it's not the same dog I know Identical in ways But the nose of the dog in India rubbed the edge of another dog's nose And now they're both not they're both not Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na-na Na-na-na-na [Verse 4] And on that day I watched my faithful bay run away No I know that's black and white For once I'm human and I don't see life that way
