A conversation caught my ear
I wish I hadn't heard
My little boy said, "Listen, Spot
But don't you bark a word
Daddy's got a girlfriend
But he can't let mommy know
And night spot is when he's not here
I bet that's where he goes
But listen, Spot
I saw him
Wash the lipstick from his shirt
Then he told mom
The car broke down
And it was grease and dirt
But only lips
Can make red prints
Shake like an engine's blow
But listen, Spot
You can't tell mom
He don't want her to know
So listen, Spot
Don't even bark
It's time we got to sleep
We said our prayers
And we prayed hard
For daddy not to cheat
Let's play like it's
A bone we found
And bury it tonight
But listen, Spot
Don't dig it up
For everyone would cry"
