Sweet Little Pet (a Dog’s Holiday)

sweet little pet now you suddenly see
you’re only a dog tied to a tree
holiday took away your family

oh how they loved you hugged you and rubbed you
and served you meals from the finest tins
they’re your only true kin but they maybe in Spain now
you probably never will see them again

sweet little pet now you suddenly see
you’re only a dog tied to a tree
holiday took away your family

howl like a hound
you’ll only be found
to be locked in a cage
spend a dog’s age
with the other lot
and after ten days
then give you a shot
to end all your pains

they may doze in the sun stroll down San Miguel
or dress for the dance in their fancy hotel
there’s just a small boy that may sadly remember
a sweet little pet that once was a pal

sweet little pet now you suddenly see
you’re only a dog tied to a tree
holiday took away your family
