20 Dogs Theme Song


There are lots of kinds of dogs
They’re everywhere you go
They’re big and small and in between
And some of them you know
And now I’ll name off Twenty Dogs
As different as can be
And when the show is through
You will be naming them all with me


Beagle, Poodle, Cocker Spaniel
Husky and Shar-Pei
Dalmatian, St Bernard and Collie,
Schnauzer, Dachshund and Great Dane
Chihuahua, Greyhound, German Shepherd
Bulldog, Doberman Pinscher and Shih Tzu,
Lab Retriever, Basset Hound
And Jack Russell Terrier, too


It Isn’t So Bad           

                                                        
It isn’t so bad to be so very small                             
No it isn’t so bad, no, no, not at all                          
So don’t be too sad, if you’re not very tall           
‘Cause it ain’t so bad when you’re so very small        

       
Well, you can ask my pal Ranger                                                               
About when he lost his ball
‘Cause he’s a big German Shepherd                                       
Couldn’t reach it at all                   
There are things that get harder                                              
All the bigger you grow                                                
So when you ask big ol’ Ranger                                 
He will tell you that              

                                          
It isn’t so bad to be so very small                             
No it isn’t so bad, no, no, not at all                          
So don’t be too sad, if you’re not very tall           
‘Cause it ain’t so bad when you’re so very small     

          
Or ask my good buddie Buck                                      
‘Cause he’s a huge St Bernard                                   
How many times in a week                                         
He gets to ride in the car                                              
There are places get smaller                      
All the bigger you grow                                                
So when you run into Buck                                         
He’s sure to tell you that        

                                                     
It isn’t so bad to be so very small                             
No it isn’t so bad, no, no, not at all                          
So don’t be too sad, if you’re not very tall           
‘Cause it ain’t so bad when you’re so very small      

         
And let my good friend ol’ Morgan                                         
Just an old Bassett Hound                                           
Tell you when was the last time                                               
Someone carried him around                                    
There are things you can’t ask for                            
All the bigger you grow                                                
So when you talk to old Morgan                                               
Or if you run into Buck                                                  
Or if you ask big ol’ Ranger                                          
They’ll all tell you that                      

                             
It isn’t so bad to be so very small                             
No it isn’t so bad, no, no, not at all                          
So don’t be too sad, if you’re not very tall           
‘Cause it ain’t so bad when you’re so very small
No it isn’t so bad to be so very small                      

 
No it isn’t so bad, no, no, not at all                          
So don’t be too sad, if you’re not very tall           
‘Cause it ain’t so bad when you’re so very small

 

 

Being Big Is Fun


Being little is all good and fine                                   
But don’t say it’s best                                                   
Till you’ve been big like I am                                      
Whoa, Whoa     

Whoa, Whoa                                                                                                                             
Can a small dog or a little pup                                    
Give his owner a kiss                                                     
While he is standing up                                                
No, no                                      

No, no                                           

Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun                  
Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun       

           
What do you think about this classic trick             
Who will get there faster                                             
Chasing down a stick                                                     
Whoa, whoa                                                                     
I think you know                                                             
Eating’s my favorite of all the things I do                              
And who you think                                                         
Will get a lot more food                                                
Whoa, whoa                                                                     
I think you know


Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun                  
Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun  


Now listen closely to what you’re gonna hear    
Tell me which of these sounds                                  
Will cause the greatest  fear
One more thing I think is funny, too                       
Stuck behind a fence                                                     
Who has the better view?                                          
Whoa, whoa                                                                     
I think you know


Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun                  
Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun


Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun                  
Trust me when I say                                                      
Little doggie, hey, hey, being big is fun

 

 

Don’t Be Fooled


Don’t be fooled by a dog                             
Just because of his size                                
When you meet on the street                  
You might be surprised            

                    
It seems like every small dog                     
Should cuddle and be nice                          
But small dogs will bark a lot                       
And some may even bite                            
And great big dogs seem mean                
Like they’ll eat you up for lunch                
But some are very friendly and                 
They’ll lick your face a bunch         

            
So, don’t be fooled by a dog                      
Just because of his size                                
When you meet on the street                  
You might be surprised


You’d think you’d find a small dog                           
Running all around                                         
But some are very lazy                                 
Always sleeping on the ground                 
And some big dogs you’d think 
Might be sleeping in the flowers              
Just might be going, going, going             
Playing games for hours                                               
Watch ‘em play!                          

                    
No, don’t be fooled by a dog                     
Just because of his size                                
When you meet on the street                  
You might be surprised                 

               
Cuz there are big dogs who are nice      
And there are small dogs who are mean              
There are small dogs who are fat             
And big dogs who are lean                          
There are big dogs who are fast                               
There are small dogs who are slow         
So be careful, don’t be fooled                   
Because you just don’t ever know
No, you just don’t ever know


So, don’t be fooled by a dog                      
Just because of his size
No, don’t be fooled by a dog                     
Just because of his size
Don’t be fooled by a dog                             
Just because of his size                                
When you meet on the street
You might be surprised

What’s That Smell?


There’s a rabbit just outside                      
He’s been playing in our yard                    
I can hear him hopping ‘round                  
Don’t have to listen very hard                   
A gaggle of geese flew by                           
You wouldn’t believe how low                  
I spied them with my eyes                          
And caught their scent with my nose    

 
If your nose worked like mine                   
If your ears heard this well                         
You’d bark, and maybe whine                   
What’s that sound, what’s that smell?  


A lizard tries to hide                                       
His colors in the grass
Guess he doesn’t understand                   
How I can sniff him down so fast              
Then marching in a line                                 
Comes a family of quail
How’d you know I found them?                               
Am I waggling my tail?                  

                
If your nose worked like mine                   
If your ears heard this well                         
You’d bark, and maybe whine                   
What’s that sound, what’s that smell?  


I bet you didn’t know                                    
There’s a big dog down the road              
And another little tiny dog                          
Who lives almost as close                            
Yep, I can hear them call                              
Can pick their scent up, too                        
Is it not so amazing                                         
What a dog like me can do       

                   
If your nose worked like mine                   
If your ears heard this well                         
You’d bark, and maybe whine                   
What’s that sound, what’s that smell?  


So the next time that you wonder          
‘Bout that look upon my face                    
About the crazy sound I make                   
Or what I’m giving chase                              
Just remember I can smell stuff                               
You don’t even catch a whiff                     
And I can hear all kinds of things              
Your human ears just miss

Grouchy Dog


Don’t even try to make me smile                                             
I’m in a grouchy mood                                                                  
Grouchy mood, oh yeah                                                                              
Grouchy mood, oh no                                                                   
None of your silly tricks will work                                             
Not toys, or games or food                                                                         
Tasty food, oh no                                                                            
Tasty food, oh yeah                 

                                                      
Because this frown that you see is stuck on my face       
Nothing you can do to make a smile take its place            
Nothing you can do to make me smile   

                                
Cuz when I decide I’m feeling mad                                         
You might as well give up                                                            
Just give up, oh yeah                                                                     
Just give up, oh no                                                                         
Always been stubborn this way                                                
Since I was a little pup                                                                   
Little pup, oh yeah                                                                         
Little pup, you betcha             

                                                      
I say this frown that you see is stuck on my face                               
Nothing you can do to make a smile take its place
Nothing you can do to make me smile


Oh, I can feel your fingers tickling me                                    
But you can never win                                                                  
You may think you’ve got me now                                          
Because you see me grin                                                             
But you have made a big mistake
As very soon you’ll see
This great big frown is stuck on me


This frown that you see is stuck on my face                                        
Nothing you can do to make a smile take its place
Nothing you can do to make me smile


Ok, ok, you proved your point                                                  
Please stop before I lose control
Lose control, oh yeah
Lose control, oh no
Now look what you made me do                                             
You better clean it up now, bro                                                
Clean up bro, oh yeah                                                                   
Clean up bro, you got it                         

                                       
And now this smile that you see is stuck on my face       
Nothing you can do to make a frown take its place
Nothing you can do to make me frown


Yeah this smile that you see is stuck on my face                
Nothing you can do to make a frown take its place
Nothing you can do to make me frown                

 


Is Your Occiput Domed?


Is your occiput domed?                
Is your cranium round?
Or is your head flat                         
Like a speedy Greyhound           
No matter its shape
Or its geometry
Domed, round or flat
It’s quite perfect to me


Let me tell you a story                  
About a dog we’ll call Chap         
So worried  about his head         
Always wore a ball cap                  
Told that little doggie                    
Time and again                                 
Head round or flat
You will still be my friend


Is your occiput domed?                
Is your cranium round?
Or is your head flat                         
Like a speedy Greyhound           
No matter its shape
Or its geometry
Domed, round or flat
It’s quite perfect to me


Look at our good friend Cash     
The coolest dog around                               
Head flat as a pancake                  
The flattest I’ve found
Or what of old Lassie’s                  
Shaped nothing like a dome       
Her head’s long and thin                              
But she’s smartest dog I know  

Is your occiput domed?                
Is your cranium round?
Or is your head flat                         
Like a speedy Greyhound           
No matter its shape
Or its geometry
Domed, round or flat
It’s quite perfect to me


Then early one morning                               
While out for a walk                       
I saw my pal Chappie                     
No hat!  What a shock!                 
A simple mistake                             
All along, he explained                 
Not the shape of my head          
But a month-long bad hair day 

 
Is your occiput domed?                
Is your cranium round?
Or is your head flat                         
Like a speedy Greyhound           
No matter its shape
Or its geometry
Domed, round or flat
It’s quite perfect to me
Yes, domed, round or flat
It’s quite perfect to me



Just Doing My Job
Just doing my job                                                                            
I’m just trying to be me
You see what you get
And you get what you see
Yeah, I’m quite a dog
But it comes naturally
Just doing my job
I’m just trying to be me


What kinds of things can you do?                            
Well this dog saves people with a rescue crew                  
And here’s one who guides folks with disabilities             
And here’s one now who’s good at herding sheep          
I say, wow, they rock, and there’s even more                   
Well this dog races faster than I’ve seen before                               
And here’s one who stands guard on your property                       
And this one here leads a sledding team       

                                       
Just doing my job                                                                            
I’m just trying to be me
You see what you get
And you get what you see
Yeah, I’m quite a dog
But it comes naturally
Just doing my job
I’m just trying to be me


Tell me, what’s your favorite chore?                                      
Well this dog swims, dives and then swims some more 
And this one retrieves balls or even sometimes birds     
While this one burrows down and digs up dirt                   
Wow, that’s cool!  But don’t stop cuz I’ll show you now!               
How this dog protects you with his mean ol’ growl          
And here’s one who will search if there’s someone lost
And this one here likes to show who’s boss   

                     
Just doing my job                                                                            
I’m just trying to be me
You see what you get
And you get what you see
Yeah, I’m quite a dog
But it comes naturally
Just doing my job
I’m just trying to be me


Look, now I’ve got someone else                                            
Here’s a dog who tracks things with his sense of smell   
And here’s one who can hunt for all kinds of prey           
And this big guy will chase the bad guys away                    
Well right on!  But tell me do you work all day?                 
Cuz this dog sure don’t cuz he loves to play!                       
But with all these dogs do, tell you, in the end                   
Best of all, they can be your friend  

                                        
Just doing my job                                                                            
I’m just trying to be me
You see what you get
And you get what you see
Yeah, I’m quite a dog
But it comes naturally
Just doing my job
I’m just trying to be me


Just doing my job                                                                            
I’m just trying to be me
You see what you get
And you get what you see
Yeah, I’m quite a dog
But it comes naturally
Just doing my job
I’m just trying to be me

Oh, and you really jive

When your belly is scratched                                     
Cuz you can chase down                                              
A Frisbee and catch                    

                                    
Can’t help put a smile on my face
What’s the use, oh, it’s always the case


Cuz you’re not a cat, or a bird or a frog                  
Not a lizard or fish, No, because you’re a dog
