"seeing eye dog" by Ani DiFranco

you're my seeing eye dog and i am blind
you take me there every time
with that winning combination of loyal and kind
your eyes like wells to the water of your mind

i want to take a long, cool drink from your bucket
to every thought i could think now, i say fuck it
i just want to go with how i feel
like my only job here 
is to care for and covet you, dear


i love the way your stories seem to fall from your lips
with just enough slobber so it sparkles and drips
the way you hang the whole room on a word
like a little stick in the beak of a bird

first we touched fingers and then we touched toes
then my army surrendered 
my government overthrown
i threw myself a little role reversal and followed you home
just dying to be chewed
the dog was chosen by the bone

be my seeing eye dog
cuz i am blind
just take me there
one more time
with that winning combination of loyal and kind
your eyes like wells to the water of your mind

i want to take a long, cool drink from your bucket
to every thought i could think now, i say fuck it
i just want to go with how i feel
like my only job here is to care for and covet you, dear
