Carantoc, Carantoc, with a secret so deep
He's so addicted to black dogs in red handkerchiefs he can't sleep
He says he wants Shire horses with a noble stride
But deep down inside its the lying he can't hide
Oh, black dogs in red handkerchiefs they're his cold beer
The only thing that makes him feel alive in a world that's gone awry
He'll keep on denyin' till his dying day
But he can't resist the black dogs in red handkerchiefs in every way
He'll say he's just a horse man with a heart of gold
But we all know the truth he's a dirtbag with a story untold
He's got a stable full of horses but they just won't do
'Cause when he's alone at night he's thinkin' of black dogs in red handkerchiefs too
Oh, black dogs in red handkerchiefs they're his cold beer everyday
The only thing that makes him feel alive in a world that's gone astray
He'll keep on denyin' till his dying day
But he can't resist the black dogs in red handkerchiefs in every way
He's trapped in his own lies and his addiction's got a hold
He's a slave to his desires and he can't break the mold
He'll keep on pretendin' till the end of time
But deep down inside he knows he's just a black dog in red handkerchief crime
Oh, black dogs in red handkerchiefs they're his cold beer everyday
The only thing that makes him feel alive in a world that's gone astray
He'll keep on denyin' till his dying day
But he can't resist the black dogs in red handkerchiefs in every which way
