A conversation caught my ear
I wish I hadn't heard
My little boy said listen spot
But don't you bark a word.

Daddy's got a girl friend
But he can't let mommy know
And night spot is when he's not here
I bet that's where he goes.

But listen spot I saw him
Wash the lipstick from his shirt
Then he told mom the car broke down
And it was grease and dirt.

But only lips can make red prints
Shake like an engine's blow
But listen spot we can't tell mom
He don't want her to know.

--- Instrumental ---

So listen spot don't even bark
It's time we got to sleep
We said our prayers and we prayed hard
For daddy not to cheat.

Let's play like it's a bone we found
And there it is tonight
But listen spot don't dig it up
For everyone will cry...
