Do you make up songs for your dogs? I do.
Most of the time they're nonsense, or something sung to a popular tune. Perhaps sung to the theme of Spider-Man, which is my ubiquitous musical theme. But a dog song can be pretty much anything from an original piece (Mappo Mappo Mappo MAAAP!) to a spoof.
Today I was working out on my elliptical while The Ladies, Tuesday and Map, were lounging bedside. The song I ended my workout with was London Bridge by Fergie. What got me started on dogifying the song was the repetition of Oh, SNAP! I looked at Map and started laughing: Ohhhh, MAP!
I was further inspired by the fact that the girls are fighting these days (instigated by Millie, aka The Duppy) and have to be separated. Nothing says fun like breaking up a dog fight. The chorus of the regular lyrics go
How come every time you come around,
my London, London bridge wanna go down
like London, London, LonDON! wanna go down
like London, London, LonDON! we're goin' down
My lyrics go:
How come every time I turn around,
My Tuesday, Map and Dup are throwin' down?
My Dup-py, Dup-py, Dup-PY is throwin' down?
My Dup-py, Dup-py, Dup-PY, she's throwin' down!
I've said it before and I'll say it again: it does not take much to entertain me.
Oh, MAP!
