Neighborhood Watch (Run by Dogs)

Verse 1 The mailman’s back! Sound the alarm! He’s going past our drive. Forget the fact he’s been right here Six days a week our whole dog life. We’ll bark until he leaves again— That’s another battle won. Tomorrow we’ll do it all again… Same mailbox, same old fun. Chorus Neighborhood Watch, run by dogs, Guarding this home like it’s Fort Knox. A leaf blows by? That’s Code Red! A squirrel sneezes? Wake the dead! Nobody gets too close around here Without a bark everyone can hear. We’ll keep watch from dusk to dawn… ’Cause we’re Neighborhood Watch… Run by dogs! Verse 2 That Amazon truck? Suspicious. The garbage truck? Even worse. The meter reader shows up? Wake every dog in the universe! A butterfly fluttered through the yard. One bark turned into twenty more. Suddenly everybody’s on high alert… Nobody knew what they were barking for. Chorus Neighborhood Watch, run by dogs, Guarding this home like it’s Fort Knox. A leaf blows by? That’s Code Red! A squirrel sneezes? Wake the dead! Nobody gets too close around here Without a bark everyone can hear. We’ll keep watch from dusk to dawn… ’Cause we’re Neighborhood Watch… Run by dogs! Bridge Attention! Attention! Emergency report! Unknown plastic bag approaching the porch! A frog croaked! The cat walked by! There’s something flapping in the sky! All available units, take your posts! We’ll scare ’em off before they’re close! Verse 3 The UPS guy never had a chance. The FedEx driver turned and ran. A rabbit twitched two hundred feet away… Deploy the whole dog clan! The coast is clear… the danger’s gone. Everybody can settle down. Wait… what’s that? A blowing leaf! Sound the alarm all over town! Final Chorus Neighborhood Watch, run by dogs, Guarding this home like it’s Fort Knox. Every truck gets questioned twice, Every squirrel pays the price. If you’re turning around, don’t take it hard— We’re just protecting our yard. The humans think they own this place… That’s adorable. Another day, another solved case. Outro ’Cause we’re Neighborhood Watch… Run by dogs!
