Zira the Rocket Dog

[Verse 1]
Little tornado
Fur like midnight
Chewed through another pair
Of my old shoes
Zira on the sofa
Like she pays rent here
Tongue out
Head tilt
“what did I do?”
[Chorus]
Zira the rocket dog
Zooming through the hallway (hey!)
Skidding 'round the corner
Like the floor’s all waves
Zira my chaos queen
Mud on every doorway
Tiny beating heart
Big enough to break me every day
[Verse 2]
Nose on the window
Watching every raindrop
Barks at the mail slot
Like it talked back
Two years of mayhem
Fur on my black jeans
But every time she curls up
The world goes slack
[Chorus]
Zira the rocket dog
Zooming through the hallway (woah)
Skidding 'round the corner
Like the floor’s all waves
Zira my chaos queen
Mud on every doorway
Tiny beating heart
Big enough to break me every day
[Bridge]
Yeah
I used to sleep in
I used to stay out
Now it’s 6 a.m
And she’s singing loud (hey!)
Leash by the front door
Eyes like a sunrise
Who knew my whole life
Fit in those brown eyes
[Chorus]
Zira the rocket dog
Zooming through the hallway
Skidding 'round the corner
Like the floor’s all waves
Zira my chaos queen
Mud on every doorway
Tiny beating heart
Big enough to break me every day
(big enough to break me every day)

rock, Crunchy indie rock with bright guitars, bouncy mid‑tempo drums, and a playful bassline. Male vocals, animated and conversational, with shouted gang vocals on the hook. Verses stay tight and slightly half-spoken; chorus opens wide with chiming octave guitars and claps on the backbeat. Short tambourine hits and “whoa” backups lift the last chorus before a quick, ringing outro chord., indie rock
