[00:17.49]i found a shelter and garden,
[00:19.32]on the corner of fountain and vine.
[00:21.79]it’s made for gamblers who lose,
[00:23.99]a place for brave men to whine.
[00:26.12]every so often there’s trouble,
[00:27.69]somebody could lose a life.
[00:30.42]i just sit on the back porch,
[00:32.37]and eat apples with my knife.
[00:34.60]isabella comes to visit,
[00:36.56]she can talk all day and night.
[00:38.70]cursing the republican government,
[00:40.60]i can’t say if she’s wrong or right.
[00:42.63]i said i admired her hatred,
[00:44.85]i’m not one to take sides.
[00:46.79]she kissed me and tried to persuade me,
[00:49.13]so i had no choice, i had to lie.
[00:52.85]
[00:54.51]in the morning she left me a letter,
[00:56.98]i couldn’t make out a single word.
[00:59.23]i’m sure it was something outrageous,
[01:01.39]about her trying to save the world.
[01:03.53]it was then that i got so depressed,
[01:05.60]in this world i make no difference.
[01:07.66]i just hang out with thieves,
[01:09.74]spitting apple seeds at the fence.
[01:11.87]so i picked up the la times,
[01:13.83]and read to page 22.
[01:16.01]it was there that i found my purpose,
[01:18.14]to help dogs from being abused.
[01:20.17]i began to tell all my friends,
[01:22.18]about these dogs in need.
[01:24.32]i said, “did you know in some parts of china,
[01:26.30]all the dogs have fleas?”
[01:30.58]
[01:36.61]they said i was crazy,
[01:39.31]laughed and shook their heads.
[01:41.00]said maybe i would have found jesus,
[01:42.98]in another girl’s bed.
[01:45.12]but i was off to the white house,
[01:46.99]with 6 greyhounds and a sign.
[01:49.31]practiced my speech to the president,
[01:51.42]i memorized every line.
[01:53.23]after a few days i made friends,
[01:55.56]to help me with my cause.
[01:57.59]we even made the local news,
[01:59.73]chanting, lets save the dogs!
[02:17.40]
[02:18.21]it brought a tear to my eye,
[02:20.55]they understood what i had to say.
[02:22.58]and just like isabella,
[02:24.41]i was talking all night and day.
[02:26.63]i was talking at the racetrack.
[02:28.73]i was talking on the radio.
[02:30.78]i was talking at the cathedral,
[02:32.69]and at the pound with my megaphone
[02:35.13]and then one sunny morning,
[02:37.54]preaching at the dog parade.
[02:39.29]i had a crowd of 2,000,
[02:41.42]hanging on every word i’d say.
[02:43.43]i swore i’d see them through.
[02:45.72]we’d fight until the end.
[02:47.63]when a bulldog barked right at me,
[02:49.62]and tore up my left hand.
[02:51.71]as the blood ran down my arm,
[02:53.60]from my elbow to the floor,
[02:55.93]i knew i’d lose my temper.
[02:57.76]i couldn’t take anymore.
[03:00.08]i screamed, that’s it, i give up!
[03:02.20]these dogs don’t give a damn!
[03:04.25]they all called me a traitor,
[03:06.39]said, go back to from where you came!
[03:09.50]
[03:15.59]so that’s just what i did,
[03:18.58]and they welcomed me with open arms.
[03:20.48]and the freshest basket of apples,
[03:22.71]straight from cortez farms.
[03:24.77]i told isabella my story.
[03:26.72]i thought she’d understand.
[03:29.11]but she called me a failure,
[03:31.15]and knocked the fruit from my hands.
[03:32.99]i guess maybe she was right.
[03:34.97]i was just a phony from the start.
[03:36.92]but these apples never tasted sweeter,
[03:39.45]and i know who my real friends are
[03:42.93]
