I see my dog lying under the table
I see him licking my brother’s girlfriend’s hand
La de da da da
La de du da de du da de du du

I can’t understand those eyes that keep staring at me
I can’t understand how you do what you do to me
I keep on looking for you everywhere
I can’t get used to the feeling you’re giving me

Bowzey wow wowzey
Bowzey wow wowzey bow wowzey bow wowzey
du du du du
la la la la la la la la la

About Lyrics and My Thing by Bee Gees

The lyrics for My Thing are made up of the words, verses and background chorus for the popular 1970 song by Bee Gees. Like a lot of songs, the lyrics to My Thing have both direct meanings and metaphorical context hidden within the song's words. All of the meanings are only truly known by the creators of the lyrics for My Thing - Bee Gees and any of the writers who worked with them on the song.

If you have an interest in the structure of words and phrases, you can dissect the lyrics to My Thing by Bee Gees in multiple ways. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to My Thing" means the words set to the music of My Thing, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Bee Gees. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to My Thing and the lyrics to My Thing are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Bee Gees who came here looking just for the lyrics to My Thing, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
