  • Why does a dog need to be walked?
    Three birds fighting out in the yard
    But I don't know what they're fighting about
    So why does a dog need to listen
    Whenever you shout?

    These cats seem to blow
    Everyone's mind, but mine
    What is so funny
    About beasts above understanding?

    Are you their master?
    Did you buy them at the store?
    Did they know they were a cure
    For you to stop being bored?

    So somebody mated them
    And took their babies away from them
    Stuck a price tag on their nose
    And now you're buying it clothes

    So, why does a dog need to be walked? Writer/s: Jack White
    Publisher: Universal Music Publishing Group
