Marking around the Christmas Tree

Marking around The Christmas Tree
What a doggie holiday
Just doing what comes naturally
Even though it's Christmas Day

Marking around The Christmas Tree
Gotta squirt each present twice
Spreading our scent on all this stuff
It's a doggie paradise

There may be some screaming when the humans rise at dawn
(but remember)
Grandma wraps her gifts in plastic
Hey - come on - it's nothing drastic

Marking around the Christmas tree
We just do what boy dogs do
Doing our duty gracefully
And we'll share our loot with you

Marking around the Christmas tree
All precautions were in vain
We must own everything we see
So we stake our doggie claim

Marking around the Christmas tree
We don't see the problem here
But if we're caught we know that we
Will be dragged off by the ear

People shout and tell us we are evil little curs
(but remember)
We're not trying to be snotty
YOU installed this indoor potty

Marking around the Christmas Tree
Gonna check our list off twice
When Santa visits, we know he
Can just sniff out who is NICE!
