Those lyrics have an air of familiarity about them. Anyone remember a PBS kids’ show called The Electric Company? As I recall, it aired after Sesame Street and Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood. In any case, they had a recurring Spider-Man bit, wherein Spider-Man would communicate using comic book-style word ballons that appeared over his head, which the other characters would read aloud. At least that’s what I remember. I could be wrong; I was a little kid. In any case, the theme song went like this:
SPIDER-MAN
WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM
SPIDER-MAN
NOBODY KNOWS WHO YOU ARE
…coincidence? Seems a stretch.
Anyway, thanks as always for another great article!
Haha holy shit! They stole the Spider-Man theme and made it about dog fucking!
Seems about on par for these cats. Or, dogs I guess?
I don’t think it’s a coincidence, because it’s the first thing I thought of. This was unleashed in the 80s, so they almost certainly were aware of the Spiderman song.
Good lawd. The video is atrocious, but the actual music is easily the worst thing about it. I want to punch The Dog Police.
Never getting that out of my head now.
Thanks a lot Brock– DOG POLICE WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM DOG POLICE.

You’re not wrong, dude. They pretty much straight ripped-off The Electric Company.
