What people say and what people do are two different things.
There are people, who will say, speak up for yourself
and we will stand behind you all the way, the next
thing you know, you are out on a limb all by yourself
Watch them dogs
People will tell you, it doesn’t matter what you look
like on the outside, it’s what’s inside that counts,
the next day you hear through the grapevine, did
you see how bad she looked, what happened to her
Watch them dogs
When you are down on your luck, people are quick
to say we are here for you, just let us know if you
need anything and so when the time comes, you
decide to take them up on their offer when behind
your back you hear them whispering well what
does she expect us to do?
Watch them dogs
You were told by your supervisor, if you work hard,
do a good job; go above and beyond the call of duty,
he will see to you getting a promotion, when the
time comes, he knows nothing about it
Watch them dogs
Your coworkers came to talk to you about another
coworker who is not pulling their weight at work
and are planing to confront this person and would
like to know if you are with them, when the time
comes, they push you out front
Watch them dogs
Your friends told you, if you need me, call me, you
can count on me, I’ll always be there for you, when
you need them, their nowhere to be found
Watch them dogs
