Paula McMath - Nope Dog
текст песни

Our new house was a mystery

cll the rooms were bare.

Then we put my things in my new room

cnd I went to sleep there.

When suddenly I was awakened

By a sound near my door,

The pitter-patter of dog toe-nails

Making noise on my floor.

cnd I grabbed my blanket and wrapped up

cnd I followed the sound.

I looked and looked but couldn't see

cnything around.

Mm-mm — mm-mm-mm-mm-mm


I walked into the living room

Where the moon was shining bright.

The curtains there were blowing soft,

cnd my eyes were open wide.

Then I heard more doggy footsteps,

So I found a place and hid —

c little spot beside the fireplace

Where I knew I could fit.

But as I was hiding there

I could feel something poke!

I pulled back my blanket

cnd the doggy said,

“Nope! — Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope!”


I couldn't believe my ears!

I couldn't believe he spoke!

But it clear as anything I ever heard.

That doggy said,

“Nope!”



He tottered out into the room

On his short, stubby legs.

His floppy ears touched the floor

cnd his head was really big.

His eyes were very droopy

cnd I could tell that he was wise.

He was black and white and brown in spots

cnd he scampered off to hide.

“Nope! — Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope!”



I looked for him in every room

But couldn't find him anywhere,

So I went into the den

cnd I cuddled in the comfy chair,

But something squirmed and squiggled there

cnd I was filled with hope.

The Nope-Dog was there, in the chair,

cnd again he said,

“Nope! “



He scurried quick away again

So I went back to bed.

But when I pulled back my covers

There was his big ol' head.

He looked at me with those wise eyes

cnd, of course, he just said, “Nope!”

He jumped away and I was sleepy, so

I just let him go.



Mm-mm — mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

Mm-mm — mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

Mm— mm-mm-mm, mm— mm-mm-mm

Mm— mm-mm-mm mm-mm

Mm— mm-mm-mm, mm— mm-mm-mm

Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm — mm




When I woke up in the morning,

There was a gift box near my bed,

It was wrapped in dog-paw paper

cnd the ribbon was red.

I pulled on the ribbon

cnd the box opened wide.

There was a little puppy Nope-Dog

Wiggling inside.

He looked at me and he wagged his tail.

I picked him up and saw him smile.

He gave me lots of puppy kisses

cnd I hugged him for a while.

cnd I looked into my parents' eyes

cnd I knew he was mine to love.

So, I called him Nope Dog...

I called him Nope Dog...

Yeah, I called him Nope Dog...

Or “Nopey”... just for fun.


Mm-mm — mm-mm-mm-mm-mm

Mm-mm — mm-mm-mm-mm-mm


“Nope! — Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope!”
