Know what can make,
My day a little brighter?
And sometimes a little sadder?

That doggone look.

‘Cause often I do,
Something very right,
Or very wrong when you give me:

That doggone look again.

Like when I chew on,
Carpet or relieve myself inside.
Do you know what I mean?

See – there is it…that doggone look!

The worst is when,
I’ve really messed up,
‘Cause there’s no mistaking:

That doggone look gone bad.

But, on the whole,
I prefer the attention,
To being ignored or missing out on…

That doggone look from you!
