Too Many Puppies

Too many puppies are being shot in the dark. 

Too many puppies are trained not to bark. 

At the sight of blood that must be spilled so that we may maintain 

Our oil fields. 

Too many puppies. 

Too many puppies. 

Too many puppies are taught to heal. 

Too many puppies are trained to kill. 

Sleek animal pelts. 

Too many puppies. 

Too many puppies. 

Too many puppies. 

Too many puppies. 

Skinny was born in a bathtub 

And he grew so incredibly thin 

Even the tide from the eyedropper sucked him in 

Skinny never knew any questions 

Skinny never looked alike 

Skinny sold somethin' every single night 

Skinny sold a soldier to me 

Skinny sold the wife 

Skinny sold a suction cup and a knife 

Skinny found a hello dolly record in the house. 

Sold it to a truck driver in the night. 

Too many puppies with guns in their hands. 

Too many puppies in foreign lands. 

Are dressed up sharp in suits of green and placed upon the war machine. 

Too many puppies are just like me. 

Too many puppies are afraid to see. 

The visions of the past brought to life again, 

Too many puppies, too many dead men.
