Dogtown Songtext
von Yoko Ono feat. Sean Lennon

The town′s dawning
i'm the only one awake
The streets are whistling
i light my fourth cigarette
I think of my friends
they were once not so dead

What are they thinking now?

One day i′ll be just a little stone
Nobody'll know that the stone had such emotions
Anyway, i'm always on the run
Someday i′ll be remembered for the phone calls i never made
Letters i never mailed
And stories
i never finished telling anyone


The town′s yawning
i let my dog walk me around
He took a shoot
and people smiled
I tried the same
and people frowned
Yes, it's a dog, dogtown

One day let′s be a pair of trees
Nobody'll know that the trees had such a history
Anyway, we′d never be this lonely
Someday i'll be remembered for the fine words i meant to keep
A warm smile i meant to leave
And a true song i meant to finish writing all my life

Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Yes, it's a dogtown, it′s a dogtown
Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown

Peas porridge loved
peas porridge spoiled
Peas porridge in the pot nine years old
Some gets laid
some gets slayed
Some stays in the pot nine years old


One day let′s be a pair of trees
Nobody'll know that the trees had such a history
Anyway, we′d never be this lonely
Someday i'll be remembered for the fine words i meant to keep
A warm smile i meant to leave
And a true song i meant to finish writing all my life

Yes, it's a dogtown, it′s a dogtown
Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Yes, it′s a dogtown, it's a dogtown
Dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dog, dogtown

Peas porridge loved, peas porridge spoiled
Peas porridge in the pot nine years old
Some gets laid, some gets slayed
Some stays in the pot nine years old
