Down the street the dogs are barking And the day is getting dark. As the night comes in a-falling, The dogs´ll lose their bark And the silent night will shatter From the sounds inside my mind, For I´m one to many mornings And a thousand miles behind.

If the army were to stop experiments on dogs and switch to rats instead, we should not be any less concerned.
