Ugly Dog

大概所有类型的绰号我都有过，其中包括ugly dog（我的最爱;-)）。不过Ugly Dog在这首歌里指的是暴食症，它像其他成瘾一样，在不知觉中渐渐破坏人与人的关系。而遗憾的是，这种疾病一直在大众面前被忽视。在《Ugly Dog》中，我试图通过叙述我和我患有暴食症的爱人的经历，来让更多的人了解和关注到这件事。单曲中用到了两个视角，在第一节和最后一节中都是从我的视角出发，中间部分则是她的视角。

I suppose I have been called just about every name in the book, including ugly dog - it’s my favorite (wink). But, the true ugly dog of this song is Bulimia Nervosa, an eating disorder that, like other addictions, can sabotage and destroy relationships. Sadly, this serious disorder has traditionally been overlooked. In Ugly Dog, I try to bring it more to light by recounting my experience with someone I loved who suffered from bulimia; from my perspective in the first and last verses, and from hers in the middle verse.

Ugly Dog  丑陋的狗。
