WRONG DOG SONG

Freaking dog walked the wrong way.
Walking dog freaked the wrong way.
Dog freaking walked the wrong way.
Walking the wrong way, dog freaked.
Dog freaked walking the wrong way.
Walking away, dog freaked wrong.
Freaked dog walked the wrong way.
Walking away wrong, dog freaked.
Walking away, wrong dog freaked.
