   The dogs have come today
the dogs have come to stay
It’s time to get your gun out 
And drive the dogs away
   They can smell your blood inside 
It’s loo late lo go and hide 
The dogs are’ on their way 
Prepare yourself today
   Glory to God in the highest
and on earth peace to men of good will
We praise thee; we bless thee;
we adore thee; we glorify thee
We give thanks to thee for thy great glory
O lord God, Heavenly King,
God theFather Almighty,
O Lord, the only begotten son, Jesus Christ, 
O Lord, lamb of God, son of the Father
   The dogs know when you’re sleeping 
They know when you’re awake
How fast your heart is heating 
So be ready, or too late
   They’ll drag you by the collar 
And they’ll take you through the town 
Your friends can help no longer 
Once your ass is on the ground
   Thou who takest away the sins of the world
have mercy upon and receive our prayer 
Thou who sittest at the right hand of the Father, 
have mercy upon us
For thou art holy,
thou only art the Lord, thou only Jesus Christ, art most high,
with the holy ghost in the glory of God the Father.
   The dogs have come today 
The dogs have come to stay 
The dogs want you to pay 
And this is what I say:
   The trick to saying prayers 
When the Devil’s in the way 
Is to help God pull the trigger 
On the dogs this Judgment Day
   AMEN.
