Trivia, story behind the song, etc.

Lyrics

I love it when we go for a ride in the car
I hope we get to go to the park
But, no, now I know that they drove too far
And they're keeping me in the dark
I can't run off and I can't escape
And I don't know what to do
I got a bad feeling what's coming up is scary
The veterinary rhythm and blues.

I’m feelin’ oh so blue, I’m down as I can get
What am I supposed to do, I’m being dragged off to the vet.
I smell it from a mile away, the place gives me the blues
The only thing that's good with it: cats gotta go there, too.
Just because I scratch my ears and they’re a little sore
Why should I freeze my butt off on that frigid tile floor?
People got it easy, we just ain’t like them
They sit and watch their DVDs, I’m stuck with a DVM.

CHORUS:
When I'm feeling ill
I'd rather run for the hills
Than to me met by this ol’ vet
I’d rather play hard to get
‘Cause I’ve got time to kill
But I know I'll pay my dues
When he brings my people in with him
It’s veterinary rhythm 
My veterinary rhythm and blues.

He stuck something in my butt, and he's looking in my ears
My people lost their mind, and say I've got no cause to fear.
They clip my nails and brush my teeth, it just gives me the fits
Then they try to patronize me but their biscuits are the pits.
Kennel cough and rabies, distemper and a cold
I feel OK till suddenly they poke' me full of holes.
I think that I can take it, go down without a fight
Unless somebody tells me that they’re keepin’ me overnight.

CHORUS
I don't have a say, but if I had my way
His implements and instruments
The rest of his accouterments 
Would never see the light of day
No one asks if I refuse
When he brings his tools in with him
It’s veterinary rhythm 
My veterinary rhythm and blues.
