You
say I'm "Just a Dog" then why would it be,
if you spell my name backwards god is what you see
I
have many jobs, one is protecting your life
or making sure your family's safe when that prowler is out at night
I
would chase down any man who hurt someone,
I would protect you with my life until my job is done
I
search for drugs in many different places,
I can pick them out of any thing even though they come in many different phases
I
can sniff out a bomb that might be in your child's school,
I would risk being blown up to make sure your child comes home to
you
If
you're hurt in the woods or just lost and scared
I will search as long as it takes to make
sure your life is spared
I
am loyal to my master for they are first in my eyes,
I will always stand beside them for we
are partners till I die
Of
all these jobs that I do, my most important is protecting you,
protecting your life with the risk of losing mine even though I have never met
you
So
after all these things that you read,
tell me when you look into my eyes is
"Just a Dog" all you see?
