Dirty Muddy Paws

I'm taking comfort from the fact
 That you could never let me go
 But what am I supposed to do
 When you go out and I'm alone
 You made a promise you would come
 right home
 But now I'm hearing that you're pouring
 over everyone we know
 I call you on the telephone
 But you're too busy with your dirty
 muddy paws
 My friends all say that I'm a fool
 'Cos I go begging on my knees
 But they could never understand
 The way you are when you're with me
 You made a promise you would come
 right home
 But now I'm hearing that you're pouring
 over everyone we know
 I call you on the telephone
 But you're too busy with your dirty muddy paws
 Why can't you leave and then come back to me
 Cos at this moment I'm alone and it's you
 I want to see
 I want you here right next to me
 But you're too busy with your dirty
 muddy paws
 Are you gonna come back this time
 Or will you leave me towing the line
 Is this the way it's meant to be
 Or are you ever gonna think of me
