A World Without Fences

Scamp

Far from here is where I want to be
Somewhere out there, loose and running
Nobody's leash to hold me
Nobody's hugs to crush me
Nobody's soap and scratchy comb
To bathe and brush me

A world without fences
Where I can run free
And be with real dogs
Who'll bring the real dog out in me
No walls and no boundaries
Where I can be free

A world without walls and fences
That's exactly where I want to be
This pup just won't sleep his life away
On some sofa, like his Father
Too many bones to chew up
Too many smells to sample
Too many fancy flower beds
To rip and trample
No rules to control me
Stop what I want to be

A world without fences
That's the world I want for me
No rules, no responsibility
On my own, completely free
A world without fences
For me!
