《Harry’s Dilemma》歌词

[00:00:39] Harry was a contented dog but he awoke this morning and something was very wrong

[00:00:45] He couldn't be bothered to beg for mid morning biscuits

[00:00:48] He couldn't be bothered to roll over and rub his back

[00:00:51] E rough floor he couldn't be bothered to scratch at anything that might be nibbling away at him

[00:00:56] He just lay on top of his kennel feeling thoroughly depressed even his tail wouldn't wag

[00:01:07] Four months earlier his owner

[00:01:09] An elderly gentlemen whom harry had been devoted to ever since he was a puppy

[00:01:12] Had been temporarily forced to leave the country

[00:01:15] Leaving harry with a trustworthy caring couple who lived around the corner

[00:01:26] Even his kennel was in the same spot in their yard just to the right of the back door

[00:01:35] This is the same kennel that harry had now been moping on top of for three days

[00:01:40] Despite the best efforts of the young caring couple to cheer him up

[00:01:43] Offers of chicken and an endless stream of un fetched balls sent rolling down the yard

[00:01:49] Nothing could coax harry from his gloom so it was decided to send him to the vet

[00:01:59] Harry was a large dog and heavy withered and he was in no mood to climb down from his kennel

[00:02:03] And trot to the waiting car to travel two miles to the surgery

[00:02:07] Eventually he was lifted with the aid of a neighbor onto a blanket and hobbled from kennel to car

[00:02:13] From the car to the vets when once harry would have put up a fight before going within 500 yards of this place

[00:02:21] During the whole journey he never raised an eyebrow

[00:02:23] Of course the vet could find nothing wrong with harry

[00:02:27] Mentioned depression suggested chicken and balls sent harry home to rest

[00:02:33] Still wrapped in the blanket took seven days for the notification to come through

[00:02:45] The owner had died in his sleep leaving specific instructions for harry to be put down harry was a dead dog
