When The Animals Don't Like You

Full Song Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Went on a date, the girl was sweet, the conversation flowed, Then her dog walked in the room and just exploded, Barkin' like I robbed a bank, hair up on his back,

I said "ma'am, I promise I'm a decent man," dog said "fact-check that."

[Verse 2]

She looked at me kinda sideways, said "he's never like this, strange," I laughed it off, said "dogs are weird," tried to rearrange, The whole entire conversation, but deep down I got a chill,

'Cause a bad review from a man's opinion - that's easy to kill.

But a dog don't lie.

[Chorus]

If people don't like you, that's alright, that's fine, Everybody's got their taste, everybody draws a line,

But when the animals don't like you, son, it's time to sit and think,

'Cause a dog and cat don't hold no bias - they just see it, quick as a blink. [Verse 3]

Went home that night, my own cat wouldn't come around, Sat there starin' at me like she'd figured somethin' out, I said "cat, what'd I do," she just turned around and walked away, Started doin' some real deep self-reflection right there that day. [Chorus]

If people don't like you, that's alright, that's fine, Everybody's got their taste, everybody draws a line,

But when the animals don't like you, son, it's time to sit and think,

'Cause a dog and cat don't hold no bias - they just see it, quick as a blink.

[Bridge - spoken, gravelly, half-laughin']

People got opinions, people got baggage, people got history with you, But an animal? An animal's just readin' your energy raw, And if that energy's off, buddy, that's on you.

[Final Chorus - big, playful, self-aware]

If people don't like you, shake it off, keep it movin' on, But if the dogs and cats don't like you, somethin' might be wrong, Do the work, check vour enerav, clean it up inside,
