lyrics

We used to be brothers
We used to be friends
All for one and one for all
In our innocence
Now the sun is burning high in the sky
Now Mary she is telling me to run and hide

Stay away from Roger
On this dog day afternoon
Stay away from Roger
He's got a match and a rag and a can of lighter fluid

The last time I saw Roger
We might have had words
He said he still loved Mary
And that she loved him first
If he can't have Mary and if I wanted to live
He said that Mama's trailer should be his

Stay away from Roger
On this dog day afternoon
Stay away from Roger
He's got a match and a rag and a can of lighter fluid

Well I've still got the trailer
And I've got Mary too
It took an hour to put out the fire
I ruined my favorite shoes
Now Roger's got some time on his hands
Just to think it through
You mess with your own brother it comes back to you

Stay away from Roger
On this dog day afternoon
Stay away from Roger
He's got a match and a rag and a can of lighter fluid
