The Lyrics
The greatest campaign in advertising history.
Sing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)
That crime dog is bound to get you,
Oh, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
Don’t go slow, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
That crime dog is bound to get you,
Crime dog, crime dog, crime dog, crime dog, crime dog…mmm...
(female vocal)
Crime Dog Steps,
Start in to sing, then soon, you’ll be swinging,
Crime Dog Steps,
Turn on the heat, McGruff, that dog’s beating,
One, two, three,
Products from cheap nations, (dee-de-oh!)
McGruff, see,
He’s the dog that’s taking a bite of that treat,
Crime Dog Steps,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
Crime Dog Steps,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
Oh, you’ll catch on at once,
Well, smells like Big Crime to me,
It’s the Crime Dog Steps!
(vocal trio)
Crime Dog Steps,
Start in to sing, then soon, you’ll be swinging,
Crime Dog Steps,
Turn on the heat, McGruff, that dog’s beating,
One, two, three,
Products from cheap nations, (doo-doo-do-doo!)
McGruff, see,
He’s the dog that’s taking a bite of that treat,
Crime Dog Steps,
Once you begin, you have to give in to
Crime Dog Steps,
Get on your toes, ‘cause everyone knows that
If you’re not a dunce,
You’ll catch on at once,
Smells like Big Crime to me,
It’s the Crime Dog Steps, whoa!

Simple as the day is long!
Then, you’ll swing, (Start in to sing, you’ll have to swing,)

Oh, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)
Don’t go slow, (Turn on the heat, then beat your feet,)

Look, we get it, your diminished mental capacity requires you to constantly repeat songs and ideas, including some of mine (see “Jehova’s Witlesses”) but you fool no one when you post things using my name. Everyone here knows you don’t have anywhere near the creative ability needed to come up with anything original, let alone witty. Maybe you could try posting using a different name. I’d bet MedAdvantage Max is available. BTW didja see my response to you yesterday? Funny stuff!
