Lyrics:

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