about

This was the 78th song recorded for the album. The inverse of Further Heartbreak: also a very committed high-concept premise, but one that is much more whimsical. It’s very hard for me to write a song without a concept or premise, and I think that was helpful in dealing with difficult emotions. I had to strip them down and make them concise instead of sprawling and overwhelming. The idea for this did literally come from just finding strands of my ex’s hair in my room after we had broken up. I felt like it was such a perfect metaphor for how when we’re vulnerable with someone, we shed bits of ourselves, and vice versa. Last I heard, this is the subject of the song’s favorite song on the album, and that’s really all that matters to me.

lyrics

There’s a long black hair circling my drain,
trying to remind of the pain
And there’s a long black hair on my toilet seat
and I bet there’s even more between my sheets

Why did you leave your DNA
right where I can see it, getting ready for my day?
Please, could you come collect your specimen?
It’s making me all sneezy
and there’s no one here to bless them

There’s a long black hair hiding on your head,
itching to escape into my bed
and when you’re not aware, it makes a daring leap
Now the rest will follow just like sheep

Why did you leave your DNA
right where I can see it, getting ready for my day?
Please, could you come collect your specimen?
It’s making me all sneezy
and there’s no one here to bless them

Everybody!

There’s a long black hair in my kitchen drawer
wondering who all these forks are for
And there’s a short blonde hair in your living den
wondering if they will meet again

Why did we leave our DNA
right where we can see it, getting ready for our day?
Please, could you come collect your specimen?
It’s making me all sneezy
and there’s no one here to bless them

Where Is Your Dog Now? Los Angeles, California

Where Is Your Dog Now? is an alt-rock music project by Andrew Haworth based in Los Angeles. He has recorded hundreds of songs since its inception. Each album is a “greatest hits” compilation of these songs, constructed in large part based on feedback given by his mother. Haworth experiments with a wide range of genres, but most of his songs end up sounding like power-pop, and that's okay. ... more
