For some reason the other day I got to thinking about bands that write songs about their pets.  Probably because I was listening to the Weakerthans at some point.  Oh yeah!  It was because I was doing that little blog about them...so anyway, here's the song in question and a couple more.

First up is the Suicide Machines with Sometimes I Don't Mind, about someone's dog I presume.  Otherwise it's really creepy.

Then the Weakerthans song I mentioned, Plea from a Cat named Virtue and a track from the final Red House Painters album (Old Ramon), Wop-a-Din-Din to close things out.  Both cat tracks.  I can't say I've liked either of our cats enough to write them a song.  They've been ok I guess...well, Breakfast was really annoying and I really wasn't sad to get rid of him other than that left Zuri without a playmate.  Oh well, Z will be chasing her around the house soon enough...then we'll see if she still whines for attention!  Mu ha ha.  Hah.
