I may as well be a dog

I may as well be a dog
'cause I have those doglike qualities
now, I ain't talking 'bout no ticks and fleas
I'm talking 'bout
pat me on the head
buy me a chew toy
ask me
who's been a good boy
who's been a good boy
and I'll say it's me! it's me!
can't you see?
the good boy is me
and I love you
