The Orphan
Iko grew up in a house of ill repute
A seedy motel in Mid-City
The ladies of the night thought him very cute
Iko grew up in a house of ill repute
Then he ran off one night in a raucous dispute
Our family saved him from a life that was gritty
Iko grew up in a house of ill repute
A seedy motel in Mid-City
Iko the Sniffer
Sniffing, we agree, is Iko’s best trait
The stop sign, the hydrant, the pole
Who are the dogs who have passed by of late?
Sniffing, we agree, is Iko’s best trait
His ears are okay but his nose is great
That’s why he enjoys a good stroll
Sniffing, we agree, is Iko’s best trait
The stop sign, the hydrant, the pole
The Marker
Iko is serious about leaving his mark
Each of his walks, fifteen times or more
His favorite location, our Dunore Park
Iko is serious about leaving his mark
Sometimes he’ll toss in a high-pitched bark
Just to let big dogs know the score
Iko is serious about leaving his mark
Each of his walks, fifteen times or more
The Fighter
Iko goes crazy to have a good fight
He rolls on his back, kicks his feet in the air
He does bare his teeth but he’d never bite
Iko goes crazy to have a good fight
He pushes on my forearms with all his might
I go rub-a-dub-dub on his hair
Iko goes crazy to have a good fight
He rolls on his back, kicks his feet in the air
Pandemic Dog Thoughts
For me the pandemic’s a marvelous thing
It means we’re together all of the time
Staying at home makes me want to sing
For me the pandemic’s a marvelous thing
All this attention I feel like a king
The hugging, the petting, it’s so sublime
For me the pandemic’s a marvelous thing
It means we’re together all of the time
Iko Brightens Our Lives
With Iko our house is a happier place
He’s like a fount of good cheer
He wakes in the morning with a smile on his face
With Iko our house is a happier place
His bed on our floor is his favorite space
So long as the humans are near
With Iko our house is a happier place
He’s like a fount of good cheer
