Lyrics

Had a white and black shar pei

Expressing ownership of a white and black shar pei dog

I don't know when we first got him

Uncertain about the timing of acquiring the dog

Should have taken better care of him

Regretful about not taking better care of the dog

For he added ok

Reflecting on the dog's positive impact (added okay)


Sorry when I get unruly

Apologizing for becoming unruly in certain situations

When you carry on so much I get a little tired

Expressing weariness when someone is excessively talkative

Hope you get over your teething

Wishing for recovery from a difficult or challenging phase

It's not easy when you feel sick

Sympathy for someone feeling unwell


Had to sprightly walk you like him

Describing a walk with similarities to how the dog walked

When he peed up all on your side

Recalling a situation where the dog urinated on someone's side

Grab your bed cast what he told us

Mentioning the act of casting a bed in response to the dog's behavior

Me and Michael dared each other like we were posited

Recalling dares and challenges with a person named Michael


Derek never woke up at night

Describing the dog Derek's sleep patterns

And he don't move when he's ready to go

Noting the dog's lack of movement when ready to leave

And he never had a voice like you

Comparing Derek's voicelessness to a human's ability to scream

To scream when he wanted something

Reflecting on the dog's inability to vocalize needs


Should have been so much more willing

Expressing a wish for more willingness in fulfilling Michael's needs

To have out with all the things that Michael needed

Highlighting the importance of addressing Michael's requirements


Whoop-de-doo, whoop-de-doo

Playful exclamations, possibly indicating a sarcastic or dismissive tone

See what it is, see what it is

Encouraging a deeper understanding of a situation

See inside of the eye, of the eye

Invoking imagery related to the inner workings of the eye

See inside of the eye, of the eye

Repetition of the previous line, emphasizing the internal perspective


You can die, you can die

Contemplating mortality or vulnerability

When you get, when you get

Highlighting the inevitability of facing consequences

What you know, what you know

Emphasizing the importance of knowledge and awareness

Count on me, count on me

Encouraging reliance on the speaker for support


Whoop-de-doo, whoop-de-doo

Repetition of earlier playful exclamations

See what it is, see what it is

Reiterating the call to understand a situation deeply

See inside of the eye, of the eye

Repetition of eye imagery, emphasizing internal perspective

See inside of the eye, of the eye

Repetition of the previous line, continuing the focus on inner vision
