Squeaking in the Meeting

Yesterday I shared Dad’s awkward work from home conversation caused by my excessive panting. Today I share with you the song I wrote regarding another sound Dad’s coworkers are a lot more accustomed to hearing. Although there’s a strict rule of no squeaky toys in the office, sometimes a dog just has to squeak! Therefore, I dedicate this song to all the work from home office dogs, tired of being ignored! It’s time we rise up and have a little fun! Thanks to the boys from Motley Crue, here’s my parody of “Smokin’ in the Boys Room,” to get you through the day! 

Do you ever seem to have one of those days
Where nobody wants to play 
From your father all the way down
To your best stuffie?
Well, y’know that used to happen to me all the time
But I found a way to get out of it
Let me tell you about!

Sittin’ in the office tryin’ not to nag
Listenin’ to Dad workin’ won’t make my tail wag 
When Zoom meetings start you know it’s my cue
I’m gonna grab a toy and make a squeak or two

Squeakin’ in the meetin’ 
Squeakin’ in the meetin’ 
Now Dad I’m ignoring all of your rules 
‘Cause everybody knows that squeakin’ ain’t allowed in Zoom

Checkin’ out my toys makin’ sure my point is clear
Lookin’ at my ball – yeah, it’s the one they all will hear 
Dad’s buddies Mark, Nick, and John 
To end this meetin’ early would be welcomed by all 

Squeakin’ in the meetin’
I was squeakin’ in the meetin’
Now Dad I’m ignoring all of your rules 
‘Cause everybody knows that squeakin’ ain’t allowed in Zoom

Hey, can we go play? 

Well put me downstairs where I won’t be heard 
Looked out window and I got bored
Dad’s meetin’ was goin’ better all around 
Two minutes later you know there was a sound

Squeakin’ in the meetin’
I tell you, I was squeakin’ in the meetin’
Now Dad I’m ignoring all of your rules 
‘Cause everybody knows that squeakin’ ain’t allowed in Zoom

Squeakin’ in the meetin’ 
Squeakin’ in the meetin’
I tell you, I was squeakin’ in the meetin’
Squeakin’ in the meetin’ 
Hey Dad, I’m ignoring all of your rules 
‘Cause everybody knows that squeakin’ ain’t allowed in Zoom 

One more squeak! 

Squeakin’ in the meetin’
Squeakin’ in the meetin’
Hey Dad, I’m ignoring all of your rules 
Everybody knows that squeakin’ ain’t allowed in Zoom! 

Now maybe they’ll hear my side of things!

Oh hi, Dad! Your meeting is done early. Wanna go out to play fetch?
