boygenius - Me & My Dog Lyrics






[Phoebe Bridgers:]
We had a great day
Even though we forgot to eat
And you had a bad dream
Then we got more sleep
'Cause we were kissing

I had a fever
Until I met you
Now you make me cool
But sometimes I still do
Something embarrassing

[Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus:]
I never said I'd be all right
Just thought I can hold myself together
But I couldn't breathe, I went outside
Don't know why I thought it'd be any better
I'm fine now, it doesn't matter

I didn't wanna be this guy
I cried at your show with the teenagers
Tell your friend I'll be all right
In the morning it won't matter

I wanna be emaciated
I wanna hear one song without thinking of you
I wish I was on a spaceship
Just me and my dog and an impossible view

I dream about it
And I wake up falling

boygenius Me & My Dog Comments
  1. C.... O....

    Wishing I could express how good this is...

  2. P.... ....

    Julien's guitar tone is like a warm hug.

  3. J.... B....

    This song made me sad so I browsed dog videos to cope afterwards. Great choice of song title!

  4. G.... S....

    Amores da minha vidaaaa

  5. M.... S....

    Gosh, what a good song.

  6. P.... ....

    That lap in the back sings out nicely....and of course Phoebe. I'd love to see them live.

  7. P.... ....

    Girl with the tele cute cute 👀👀

  8. J.... W....

    It's amazing how much better this version is than the studio version.

  9. d.... c....

    I need phoebe Bridgers to scream at me

  10. A.... R....

    I know this song is not really about dogs. I'm pretty sure it's about escapism after a relationship soured. But I still had a breakdown thinking about my dog while listening to it. He very likely has cancer but the vet recommended not operating because of his age. That line "Me and my dog and an Impossible view" had me bawling in my car in a strip mall parking lot.

  11. Z.... ....

    phoebe's wailing.....

  12. D.... K....

    I listened to this with my dog and he got a little boner. It made me feel very awkward. Unsubscribed

  13. i.... ....

    does anyone have the chords for this!!! AGH cant find a good progression anywhere!

  14. P.... ....

    No words..

  15. C.... D....

    play this at my funeral.

    C.... D....

    I was thinking the same thing, On my shortlist definitely... this version.

  16. N.... S....

    Phoebe screaming the last part always makes me bawl my eyes out. Love, love, love this song. Instead, it's me and my cats and an impossible view.

  17. c.... h....

    Phoebe Bridgers = The second coolest person under fifty with white hair after Julian Assange.

  18. K.... K....

    Wow. So talented

  19. K.... E....

    What a girl ! Wow !

  20. P.... ....

    Wow...that got the juices flowing and a lot of bumps....those ladies are electric. I hate to say I missed them here in Madison. I will be first in line should they ever return. Like Emily below says....the mixing was fantastic. Guess I'll watch it again....sounds good blasted over some new Philips Fidelios.

  21. M.... ....

    holy mother of god why are these women so underrated like what the fuckkkk and PHOEBES VOICE THOOOO

  22. A.... M....

    Who else has arrived here by the power of zodiac?

  23. J.... B....

    i heard there was a small town in Norway that was getting 50% of its renewable energy from phoebe's voice at 2:39

    J.... B....

    I love this 😂

  24. M.... ....

    I wish this was the version on Spotify

  25. E.... ....

    powerful

  26. A.... H....

    okay but is Phoebe's belt at the end ever not going to give me chills!?!?

  27. M.... L....

    i love boygenius so much wow thank you for gifting us this

  28. O.... B....

    AND I DREAM! ABOUT IT! I WAKE UP! FALLING!

  29. L.... ....

    Phoebe belting those lines at the end just cured my depression

  30. d.... ....

    2:40 fucking goosebumps. so many fucking goosebumps

  31. J.... U....

    Man, Wilson Phillips is aging wonderfully.

  32. J.... P....

    They ripped this song off...
    See when I was in middle school my friend and I made a rap song called Me and My Dawg and all these people did was change the spelling. My friend's dad is a lawyer so good luck.

    J.... P....

    my heart dropped for half a second

    J.... P....

    you are funny

    J.... P....

    @Wouter De Laender thanks

    J.... P....

    @Ashton Hogland sorry

  33. W.... D....

    Live version much better then the LP-version

  34. l.... l....

    We had a great day
    Even though we forgot to eat
    And you had a bad dream
    Then we got no sleep
    'Cause we were kissing

    [Verse 2: Phoebe Bridgers]
    I had a fever
    Until I met you
    Now you make me cool
    But sometimes I still do
    Something embarrassing

    [Chorus: Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus]
    I never said I'd be all right
    Just thought I could hold myself together
    But I couldn't breathe, I went outside
    Don't know why I thought it'd be any better
    I'm fine now, it doesn't matter

    I didn't wanna be this guy
    I cried at your show with the teenagers
    Tell your friend I'll be all right
    In the morning it won't matter

    I wanna be emaciated
    I wanna hear one song without thinking of you
    I wish I was on a spaceship
    Just me and my dog and an impossible view

    [Outro: Phoebe Bridgers, Julien Baker, Lucy Dacus]
    I dream about it
    And I wake up falling

  35. a.... b....

    ok so phoebe is literally the most beautiful woman i have ever seen. absolutely ethereal. oh my god when she hit that “i wanna be emaciated” i felt that

  36. A.... ....

    She's an angel with blonde hair. What a great voice,

  37. B.... B....

    I can see this song evolving for another 10 minutes

  38. f.... ....

    it's just so fucking good 😭

  39. l.... ....

    Who is the Boygenius, the drummer`?

  40. C.... W....

    Love the EP but this one is especially good - I’m always like “. . . wow” at the end.

  41. T.... ....

    Weird camera work focusing only the guitars... like he felt awkward to focus on their faces, haha

    T.... ....

    ThrustPhysics i would be too, theyre so beautiful id be shaking

  42. A.... M....

    Why they always shout during the last refrain? They should get vocal lessons to control their voice, because there's a high probability to be out of tune. Anyway, girls are amazing...beautiful song

    A.... M....

    Yeah but they nail it every time

  43. h.... r....

    RIP sweet maxxi

  44. G.... C....

    I feel like she watches a lot of anthony green shows

  45. J.... G....

    Im in love w phoebe

  46. S.... A....

    Julien Baker = Coolest girl in the world

  47. f.... s....

    IS THIS PHEOBE BRIDGERS

  48. B.... C....

    Nice job

  49. J.... B....

    The last two lines, especially the shattering vocal from Phoebe Bridgers to end the song sends shivers down my spine. So powerful. An absolutely amazing group of talented musicians and song writers.

  50. J.... B....

    Love this group. Used 2 of their songs to go along with a poem I wrote. If so inclined please check it out --> https://hubpages.com/literature/Ok-To-Start-Again

  51. M.... S....

    just me and my 🐕..and an impossible view...💘

  52. M.... S....

    memorizing.....

  53. L.... C....

    I'm listening and crying to this song while I think about my ex gf. We used to spend the nights awake talking and kissing. To bad I don't have my dog to hold on to anymore, since he died last year :'(

    L.... C....

    Suffering for my ex gf right now listening to this song and crying.

    L.... C....

    She used to be so unique and now she is changing... it hurts

    L.... C....

    Hope you mates get better :/ ✊

  54. D.... B....

    Genius.

  55. C.... G....

    Damn. That's awesome.

  56. K.... C....

    I don't know why they're always wearing those jackets, but I wouldn't want it any other way

    K.... C....

    They're a super group. They're just dressing like it.

    K.... C....

    @tragically1982 OH DAMN!

    K.... C....

    I like to believe they made them for each other at what must have been the world's best sleepover

  57. C.... G....

    Buying full Torag’s 1m

  58. R.... T....

    Just Phoebe and her dawgs with an impossible view

  59. S.... A....

    Julien makes some weird faces lol

    S.... A....

    And we love her for being authentic!

  60. J.... L....

    Amazing! Just learned about this collaboration through the World Cafe and wow.

  61. D.... V....

    2018 Crosbie Stills Nash !

    D.... V....

    Actually, that's a really good comparison.

  62. A.... M....

    The harmony scream from the white haired one at the end.....

    A.... M....

    It's even better in the version from Late Night With Seth Meyers which I'm having a hard time finding lately. She has a slight but intentional vocal crack when she changes registers during scream but it makes that live version even better and more endearing and it fits perfectly actually.

    A.... M....

    @nouellette it seems to have been deleted :\

    A.... M....

    Das my girl phoebe bridgers! Her music is insanely good

    A.... M....

    Josh Sit I think I have it downloaded! I’ll see if I can reupload it

    A.... M....

    @Tanuja K help i need it lol

  63. B.... L....

    What the Fuhhhhh. Phoebe, and ya'll. Reg from Regs Coffee House played you guys in Birmingham AL. Please consider playing a us

  64. M.... M....

    holy freakin wow what a performance!

  65. K.... K....

    Can't seem to stop listening to this song. Amazing!

  66. v.... ....

    phoebes belts.... omg i need to here more of that

    v.... ....

    that´s a problem since they are actually -there-

    v.... ....

    She’s amazing

    v.... ....

    I want more music like this. can anyone recommend me? I want to know...

  67. K.... P....

    Does anyone get Lou reed-perfect day vibes? In the beginning

  68. B.... S....

    3:06 looks like they didn't have good video for this point in the song so they had to have someone fake it after-the-fact.

  69. b.... ....

    Baker makes funny faces while singing

    b.... ....

    The song is more important than the face.

    b.... ....

    I love them.

    b.... ....

    Get outta here befly

  70. K.... H....

    They are SO TALENTED

  71. K.... T....

    Phoebe has a ridiculous range

    K.... T....

    Kevin Toaso I want to know what it’s like giving Phoebe Bridgers an orgasm.

    K.... T....

    @etagged why ya gotta be weird

    K.... T....

    @etagged Good luck with that cuz I'm fairly certain she's gay

    K.... T....

    @CJL96 phoebe is bi, julien is gay

  72. B.... a....

    First exposure to Lucy Dacus was "I don't wanna be funny anymore". That was a revelatory experience, and with each successive song I've just been more and more impressed.

    What are some songs by the other members of boygenius that I should check out? Have hard this group referred to as a "supergroup", so I'm eager to check out the other members' material!

    B.... a....

    Julien Baker is the first one I found out of the group. My favorites from her first album are "Sprained Ankle", "Everybody Does" and "Go Home". On her second album, "Turn out the lights", "Appointments", and "everything to help you sleep" But all of her songs are incredible! She also has some unreleased stuff floating around on the internet like "Red Door" which I love! Julien's songs are actually the reason I made it through high school in one piece.
    I love Phoebe Bridgers too, especially "Would You Rather" and "Scott Street". Her songs are super hauntingly beautiful. They make me happy and sad at the same time.

    B.... a....

    @Monocle Pig Productions oooh Georgia is amazing, I also love Demi Moore

    B.... a....

    they're both really good, what got me into phoebe was actually her song smoke signals. julien's entire second album is amazing but funeral pyre really stands out

    B.... a....

    Monocle Pig Productions phoebe is just out of this world. Stranger in the alps: a masterpiece

    B.... a....

    Julien Baker has done a few songs with Frightened Rabbit that are worth checking out, and if youve never heard of Frightened Rabbit give them a listen too 🤘

  73. D.... B....

    Always good to see my girl Camille. Sup Camille, big fan!

    D.... B....

    ​@Samus Aran She's the violinist that tours with Julien and she''s clearly an angel. 2:11

    D.... B....

    I love Camille too! it always makes me happy to hear her playing.

  74. t.... ....

    b'genius~B'JEEBEEZUS-H.C.! Holdin' back the tears...simply not possible! BonKers Great: "I wish I was in a spaceship ~ Me + my dog, in an impossible view"... ~ then all Cathartic-Hellaciousness-hath - been released ~ SUPERB!!!

  75. J.... ....

    Amazing song...

  76. E.... B....

    How did a public radio show (no shade) get the mixing on this better than literally every other show they've been on
    y'all magic i stan

    E.... B....

    the mixing is so good!!

    E.... B....

    because radio knows about audio

    E.... B....

    Late Night With Seth Meyers is the best live version of this song in my opinion

    E.... B....

    They get a huge endowment and endless pledge drives

    E.... B....

    @onemorebrando old codger alert: Brooklyn Bowl version is incendiary ("Almost Famous" reference)

  77. h.... ....

    Hands down boygenius is one of the best things that happened 2018.

    h.... ....

    wasn’t 2018 also the 30th year of the trump presidency?

    h.... ....

    Must've been a shitty 2018 for you.

    h.... ....

    I agree. 2018 was a shit year.

    h.... ....

    I want more music like this. can anyone recommend me? I want to know...
