The Lyrics

I have a labrador...that should explain everything!
I think love is tummy rubs and wagging tails.
Sent from someone else, and just for me!
Rubs they have obsessed me.
Rub me till I gleam.
Tummy rubs have haunted all my dreams!

So won't you rub my face, cause I'm a retriever!
Then you can trace, right down my spine.
Oh I love rubs, ooooh I'm a retriever
You can rub my fur, till I die!

Looks like rubs are more or less a giving thing.
Seems the more I want, the less I got.
What the heck I'll try it, it's driving me insane!
I need some rubbing now, or I'll cause pain!

So won't you rub my face, cause I'm a retriever!
Then you can trace, right down my spine.
Oh I love rubs, ooooh I'm a retriever
You can rub my fur, till I die!

Rubs they have obsessed me.
Rub me till I gleam.
Tummy rubs have haunted all my dreams!

So won't you rub my face, cause I'm a retriever!
Then you can trace, right down my spine.
Oh I love rubs, ooooh I'm a retriever
You can rub my fur, till I die!

Rule Number 1 of Ami-writing: If an idea sounds obvious to you, hit the Amiright search engine, just to be sure it didn't already sound obvious to someone else. If it has, then yours oughta be a LOT better than theirs. This was OK, but hardly worth seeing this title again.

555, very cute, I've never voted on the others(because I never looked for the others).

I do believe TOS was from the 60s. But the pacing is slightly off, so I voted a four in that category.

Thanks for the comments. This was my first try at parodies. Should have checked to see if it had been done, but I did it for fun for my dog. Didn't really care if it had been done before.

agree with the other posters but the idea was cute and I love animal parodies in good taste. 444
