Dog Days Are Over - MTV Unplugged, 2012

Lyrics

Happiness hit her like a train on a track
 And coming towards her, stuck still no turning back
 She hid around corners and she hid under beds
 She killed it with kisses and from it, she fled
 With every bubble she sank with her drink
 And washed it away down the kitchen sink
 The dog days are over
 The dog days are done
 The horses are coming
 So you better run
 Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
 Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
 Leave all your love and your longing behind
 You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
 The dog days are over
 The dog days are done
 Can you hear the horses?
 'Cause here they come
 And I never wanted anything from you
 Except everything you had and what was left after that too, oh
 Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
 Struck from a great height
 By someone who should know better than that
 The dog days are over
 The dog days are done
 Can you hear the horses?
 'Cause here they come
 ♪
 Run fast for your mother, run fast for your father
 Run for your children, for your sisters and brothers
 Leave all your love and your longing behind
 You can't carry it with you if you want to survive
 The dog days are over
 The dog days are done
 Can you hear the horses?
 'Cause here they come
 Here they come
 Here they come
 Here they come
