GOO BOYZ & GOO GIRLZ

This song is inspired entirely by my relationship with some of my best friends, my pets. They are all named after music stars, like Angus and Malcom Young from the rock band AC/DC, Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac and Yoko Ono... well, we are not sure how Yoko got in there, but she is part of the group. 
 It never ceases to amaze me how each one has their own unique personality, strength and fears, and how we, as humans, could afford to learn a great deal from their innocence and charm.

Goo boyz and goo girlz
The very best of both worlds
Never miss a day on the job
Watch over the yard and sound the alarm
Should we be threatened by our neighbor Bob

Well they’re always around if there was a sound
They always know just what to do
Should Johnny show up unannounced in the drive
They wag their tails and then lick him blue

Chorus

But no matter the day or how bad the pay
They’re so happy when I drive in
But there’s nothi’n as good, as when I point at my truck
And say, okay you goo boyz get in

Well we named them like stars
But there’s one there form Mars
And she can spaz right out any old time
And the other they say, knew John Lennon anyway
Together they get by just fine

Well there’s another disaster by the damn Turbocaster
And I swear my patience is near
And just one more hit of that primo catnip
And all night long they purr in my ear

Chorus

But no matter the day or how bad the pay
They’re so happy when I drive in
But there’s nothi’n as good, as when I open that door
And say, okay you goo girlz come in

And there’s nothi’n as good as when I drive through my gate
And all four of them welcome me in
