Concrete Dog
Chelou Lyrics

I'm a dog chasing his own tail
I'm constantly chasing after myself, going in circles, without any clear direction or goal.

An unmade box, with no hammer or nail
I am an unfinished project or puzzle, lacking the necessary tools or guidance to complete myself.

I fall apart
I am unstable and easily broken, unable to hold myself together or maintain my composure.

I can't keep holding what's mine
I am unable to hold onto or maintain possession of the things that should be important to me or that I claim as my own.

I'm just a waste of time
I am unproductive and fruitless, a drain on others' time and resources without any meaningful contribution or purpose.

I'm a clue without any trail
I am a reference or indication without any clear or discernible path or direction to follow.

I'm a drifter, I'm not bound to one place
I am a wanderer or traveler, with no permanent destination or sense of rootedness or belonging.

I don't know your name
I lack knowledge or understanding of others, failing to connect with or appreciate the unique identity of those around me.

But I can recognize your face
Despite my ignorance or lack of interest, I am still able to identify and acknowledge the presence of others in my environment.

I'm just a waste of space
I am occupying an area or position without any real value or meaningful purpose, taking up valuable resources without giving anything back.

I can be the artist with the best intention
I am capable of creating or producing something of value, with good motives or goals behind my work.

Withdraw your welfare but I'll pay your pension
I am willing to support and provide for others, even if it means sacrificing my own comfort or resources.

I'm sore loser
I am easily defeated and discouraged, resentful of my own limitations and failures.

On the winning team
Despite my personal shortcomings, I may still be part of a larger group or movement that is achieving success or progress.

I'm just a waste of a dream
I am a lost or forgotten ambition, a vision or goal that was never realized or brought to fruition.

Produce in a kitchen of fire
I am able to create or achieve something of significance, even in the midst of intense pressure or hardship.

Atomic bomb
I have the potential to cause great destruction or create a significant impact or change, for good or for ill.

I was a break through Einstein
I have the potential for exceptional intelligence or creativity, capable of making groundbreaking discoveries or contributions.

I do good just to recap the reward
I am primarily motivated by personal gain or recognition, only doing good deeds or actions for the sake of being rewarded or praised.

And I destroy
Despite my good intentions or positive qualities, I am capable of causing harm or destruction through my actions or choices.

Because I'm bored
I am willing to take risks or make destructive choices simply out of a lack of stimulation or interest.

How does it feel?
I am asking others to empathize with my situation or emotions, seeking to understand or connect with them in some way.

I'm a dog
I am comparing myself to a loyal and obedient companion, willing to follow or serve others without question or complaint.

Chasing his own tail
I am caught in a self-perpetuating cycle or pattern that ultimately leads me nowhere, repeating the same actions or behaviors without any real progress or growth.

I'm just a waste of time
I am reiterating my own worthlessness or lack of value, admitting that I am not contributing anything meaningful or significant to the world around me.
