As I modulate
The pedal
The tail wags
Just the way it should
My dog digs my tunes
I play them every day
He sits at my feet with a doggy grin
Begging me to play
He thumps his tail with the rhythm
And I give him yummy treats
Who could pass
On an audience like this?
Alas, I haven’t sold many albums
His friends not only don’t have thumbs
They don’t have wallets
And I had to sell my drums
At least we still have a place to jam
And a place to sleep
And I think I found a new audience:
The neighbor’s sheep
They’ve started gathering
Each time I play
Along the fence near my window
Quietly munching hay
I might be onto something here
Playing for animals might not be glamorous
But it has it’s rewards:
The neighbor has been acting amorous
So we’ve been dating
And making music together
And my dog and her sheep gather
To hear us play
Now, an open invite to humans and animals alike
We’re playing in the back field tonight
Bring your lawn chairs
And snacks, don’t forget some critter treats.
