Dog Days Are Over | Glee [HD FULL STUDIO]

Dog Days Are Over by Florence + The Machine is featured in Special Education, the ninth episode of Season Two. It is sung by Mercedes and Tina with the New Directions singing back-up.
Will gives the solo parts to Rachel, but she refuses because she is still upset about her recent break-up with Finn, so she passes it to the two "unsung heroes," Mercedes and Tina. The song is the last part of the episode, making it the second time New Directions sung a celebratory song after Sectionals.
The song was originally performed by Florence + The Machine from their debut album Lungs. It became a hit, pushing the originally 'Indie' labelled into prominence. The song was originally scheduled for release in Nov. 24, 2008, but it was pulled to Dec.1, 2008.
LYRICS:
Tina:
Happiness hit her
Like a train on a track
Mercedes:
Coming towards her
Stuck, still no turning back
Tina:
She hid around corners (New Directions: Oooo)
And she hid under beds
Mercedes:
She killed it with kisses (New Directions: Ooo, ooo, ooo)
And from it she fled
Tina:
With every bubble (New Directions: Oooo)
She sank with a drink
Mercedes:
And washed it away down the kitchen sink (New Directions: Ooo, ooo, ooo)
Tina:
The dog days are over (New Directions: Oooo)
The dog days are done
The horses are comin' (New Directions: Ooo, ooo, ooo)
So you better run
Mercedes and Tina (with New Directions):
(Run fast for your mother), run fast for your father
(Run for your children), for your sisters and your brothers
(Leave all your love and your longing behind)
You can't carry it with you, if you want to survive
(The dog days are over), the dog days are done
(Can you hear the horses? 'Cause here they come)
Tina:
And I never wanted
Anything from you
Except everything you had
And what was left after that too
Oh
Mercedes and Tina with New Directions:
Happiness hit her like a bullet in the back
Struck from a great height
By someone who should know better than that
The dog days are over
The dog days are done
Can you hear the horses?
'Cause here they come
Mercedes and Tina (with New Directions):
Run fast for your mother (New Directions: Oooo) run fast for your father
Run for your children; for your sisters and your brothers
Leave all your love and your longing behind (New Directions: Ooo, ooo, ooo)
You can't carry it with you, if you want to survive.
(The dog days are over) (New Directions: Oooo)
The dog days are done
(Can you hear the horses? 'Cause here they come!) (New Directions: Ooo, ooo, ooo)
New Directions:
The dog days are over (Mercedes: Yea-ee-yeaah!)
The dog days are done (Mercedes and Tina with New Directions: Here they come!)
The horses are comin', so you'd better run (Mercedes and Tina with New Directions: Here they come!)
The dog days and over
The dog days are done (Mercedes and Tina with New Directions: Here they come!)
The horses are comin', so you'd better run

@@Leah-kt3lh me too. Like I don't understand why am I always getting emotional, and thinking of Naya while listening to this 💔

[@uilcone]

I forgot this Song! During the Got vol 3 finale I was Like "wait I knew this Song..." and I remembered loved the glee cover! 😍 Great show! I was a teenager during glee, miss those days😢

[@hannahvandehei4735]

Not that big of a glee fan, but I love the song and the glee crew brings an energy to it that, though I adore Florence + The Machine, isn’t quite there in the original. Florence has her own style though and I have a lot of love for that as well.

[@katthudson9131]

Agreed. Love the energy they brought to this song. Florence still beat their version of "Shake It Out" though, hers carried more depth and feeling to it.

[@hellow7376]

this episode had a lot of amazing songs :D I loved this one so damn much.

Kenz R I think it’s because it’s about the end of childhood and however energetic the song may be. It is still saddening.

[@musicandmoviefan9217]

@Ryogamx that's a personal opinion. I do like this version better than the original although I can only say that about a few of the Glee songs. This one is in my opinion better than the original.

[@Ren-wm5rk]

Haha I wish a herd of horses were coming toward me so I could adopt all of them and love them..... I am a bit horse crazy.
