The Lyrics

OS first line wasn't changed, because I hope it comes true.
I'm breakin' rocks in the hot sun
I fought the dogs, but the law won
I slaughtered dogs, but the law won

I gambled money; now I'm undone
I choked the dogs, but the law won
I smoked the dogs, but the law won

It's not enough to be a quarterback
I need a bit more fun
Occasion'lly, a dog I'd whack
I offed the dogs, but the law won
I sloughed the dogs, but the law won

I staged fatal duels for pit bulls
Got thrills from fights, but the law won
Cheering their bites, but the law won

The prison guards are tough-as-sh*t bulls [1]
I wasted dogs, but the law won
Lambasted dogs, but the law won

I get my kicks from canine pal abuse
I kill them when they're done
My kennel now is really "Bad Newz"
I drowned the dogs, but the law won
In pound like dogs, is where I'm gone.



[1] "Bull" - slang for cop or prison guard (USA only?)


Apologies to Stella for a similarly-named but different-themed parody. Kinda surprised no one thought of the Vick/OS connection before. © 2007 Tommy Turtle. All rights reserved.

the best vick parody to come down the pike

I'd give it a 7 to match Vick's number -- that is, before he becomes a prisoner and gets a different number -- but you'll have to settle for a 5. Look at it this way: That's 35 in dog ratings.
