Take the Easy Way Out

"Take the Easy Way Out" is a villain song from the All Dogs Go to Heaven: The Series episode "La Doggie Vita." Upon Charlie Barkin discovering that "Annabelle being undercover" is really her demonic cousin Belladonna, she tempts him to "take the easy way" by going to work with Carface Carruthers and Killer at a meat plant to get some meat. At one point, Annabelle tries to get him to do the right thing.

Lyrics
BELLADONNA: Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Take the easy, easy way out. Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way out?

Hey, Charlie B., I can plainly see, Being good rubs your fur the wrong way. Why buy a chop you can simply cop? What sick poodle says crime doesn't pay?

You'll find the kind of life you've been whining for Right in front of your snout. Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way out?

A friend in need is a pain indeed. It's a rule that infrequently fails. Some just say "nope" to the hopeless dope Who needs help when you're doing your nails.

Chucky boy, it's your lucky day. I'll show you what it's about, How to take the easy, easy way, easy way. Take the easy, easy way out. Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way O-U-T...?

ANNABELLE: (spoken) Stop! (sung) Goodness will bring you happiness, Brighten your reputation. Your conscience is your best friend.

BELLADONNA: Unless you're seeking world domination! (chuckle) (spoken) Oh, just my sense of humor, Charlie.

ANNABELLE: (sung) No meaty meal beats the way you feel When you rescue some poor, hungry soul. So sacrifice can be twice as nice As a mountain of bones in your bowl.

BELLADONNA: (spoken) Yeah, right.

(sung) Come to the barbecue that awaits you. Soon you are certain to shout. Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way out?

A dog who pants for the franks of France, Ought to hitch a ride when he has the chance. (spoken) Get my drift?

ANNABELLE: What about Heaven? (spoken) Charles! Charles!

BELLADONNA: (spoken) Heaven? Ha! Flown there, done that.

You'll find the kind of life you've been whining for Right in front of your snout If you take the easy, easy way, easy way. Take the easy, easy way out. Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way? Take the easy, easy way, easy way. Why not take the easy way O-U-T, OUT!
