[Intro: George Clinton and Coolio]
This is a story of a famous dog
But the dog that chases it's tail; will be dizzy
It's a clapping dog
Harmonic dog
Rhythmic dog
Rappin' dog
Funky dog
Puppy dog
House dogs, Street dogs
Dogs of the World Unite!
[Hook: George Clinton]
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow yippie-yo-yippie yeah
[Verse 1: Coolio]
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
It ain't Snoop Dogg, but I'm still a hog
It's Coolio loc, full bailing out the alley
Representing West Coast, Compton Cali'
To the hoochies in the cities and the DMI trays
And the homies hitting the corners in a deuce-oh-tre
Now, give it up for the Funkadelic group
Decade and a half still bumping in a Coupé
[Verse 2: Shorty]
So why must I, feel like that?
And fill up the room with funking raps
Bumping out nine six, atomic mix
Moving and grooving, you and your trick
And I recognize, it's a new generation 'til I die
It's still One Nation, Under a Groove
Nobody moves, as the Funky Ten Dues that tone (Ruff!!)
[Chorus: George Clinton]
Atomic dog!! Atomic dog!!
Like the boys; when you're out there on the streets
May compete, nothing but the dog in me
[Hook: George Clinton]
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow yippie-yo-yippie yeah
[Verse 3: Shorty]
Let me wag my tail, lick my balls
Shorty, Coolio and the O.G. Dog
Roll like Parliament baselines
And I bought me a Vibe on the Funkenstein
My rhymes, intertwine, like Zingers
Hey man, smell my finger
We bring you; fourteen years of funk that's hard
No Speed Stick and no wright Ford
[Verse 4: Coolio]
We used to roll on Greatest, now we play Sega
And dipped in the Five-O low gold Daytons
A dog in a Lexus got his eye on the cat
And the cat can't understand why the dog likes that (Ruff!!)
Flashlights on, cause no one knows
When the nose flows, when the door is closed
Funkadelity, what you're telling me?
A-T-L with my C. D-O-G - Funk!
[Chorus: George Clinton]
Like the boys; when you're out there on the streets
May compete, nothing but the dog in me
Why must I feel like that?
Oh, why must I!!! CHASE THE CAT?
Like the boys; when you're out there on the streets
May compete, nothing but the dog in ya
Ruff!! Ruff!! Ruff!!
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothing but the dog in me
Nothing but the dog in me
[Bridge: George Clinton]
I'm working nine to five my duty to do the. DOG!
Do the dogcatcher, do the dogcatcher, dogcatcher. DOG!
Do the dogcatcher, do the dogcatcher, dogcatcher. DOG!
Do the dogcatcher, baby, do the dogcatcher. DOG! Ooh
[Chorus: George Clinton]
Why must I feel like that?
Why must I chase the cat?
Nothing but the dog in me
Nothing but the dog in me
[Outro: George Clinton]
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Bow wow, yippie-yo-yippie yeah
Just walking the dog! - my atomic dog!!
Just rock and you don't stop, just do it, feel the beat
Just rock and you don't stop, just do it, feel the beat
Just rock and you don't stop, just do it, feel the beat
Yeaaahhhh, yeaaaahhhh, yeaaahhhhh, yeaaah
