Quote Response: Lester by Neil Finn (Crowded House)

"I will change if Lester lives
Not mess him around just cause I own him.
He was nearly wiped away
But he had good luck and strong bones."  (Finn)

A bargain with god or the universe...let my dog live and I will change.  It seems to be a knee-jerk reaction to a bad situation.  The owner of the dog is sincere and you can feel how much he loves him.  When he says that he won't "...mess him around" because he is the dogs owner you, it's a sign that he appreciates his pup.  There is a lot of  love that comes through in these lines.  That he has "...good luck and strong bones" shows that he has great admiration for Lester.
