Mitski - I Bet On Losing Dogs Lyrics



Mitski - I Bet On Losing Dogs Lyrics
Official




My baby, my baby
You're my baby, say it to me
Baby, my baby
Tell your baby that I'm your baby

I bet on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I pay for my place
By the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down
I'll be there on their side
I'm losing by their side

Would you let me, baby
Lose on losing dogs
I know they're losing and I pay for my place
By the ring
Where I'll be looking in their eyes when they're down

I wanna feel it
I bet on losing dogs
I always want you when I'm finally fine

How you'd be over me looking in my eyes when I cum
Someone to watch me die
Someone to watch me die
I bet on losing dogs

Mitski - I Bet On Losing Dogs Video
(Show video at the top of the page)


The "losing dogs” or failed relationships that Mitski pursues. This represents a sort of unrequited love in which Mitski's feelings are not reciprocated with the same intensity. The use of "baby” in the song could allude to how she wants someone to care for and to be cared for in return.

The metaphor of 'betting on losing dogs' refers to Mitski getting into relationships that she knows are doomed, or with people who are too damaged to love her - she knows that it will inevitably end badly, but she consciously gets into a relationship regardless.
