Beware of the Dogs - Stella Donnelly

This street

Is haunted like a beast

That doesn’t know its face

It’s frightening to behold

All the

Painted little gnomes

Smiling in a line

Tryna get your votes

There’s an architect

Setting fire to a house

All the plans were there

But they built it inside out

No one will endure

What the sign told them they would

Beware of the dogs

Beware of the dogs

My home

Carpet on the stairs

Everyone in bed

Their eyes are white as clouds

Next door

Sounds like bloody war

Waiting for the phone

Telling us to run

There’s an architect

Setting fire to a house

All the plans were there

But they built it inside out

No one will endure

What the sign told them they would

Beware of the dogs

Beware of the dogs

There’s no Parliament

Worthy of this country’s side

All these pious fucks

Taking from the '99

Now we’ll all endure

What the sign told us we would

Beware of the dogs

Beware of the dogs
