In modern clothing and fashion design, a button is a small fastener, now most commonly made of plastic, but also frequently of metal, wood or seashell, which secures two pieces of fabric together. In archaeology, a button can be a significant artifact. In the applied arts and in craft, a button can be an example of folk art, studio craft, or even a miniature work of art.
Buttons are most often attached to articles of clothing but can also be used on containers such as wallets and bags. However, buttons may be sewn onto garments and similar items exclusively for purposes of ornamentation. Buttons serving as fasteners work by slipping through a fabric or thread loop, or by sliding through a buttonhole. Other types of fastenings include zippers, Velcro and magnets.
Buttons and button-like objects used as ornaments or seals rather than fasteners have been discovered in the Indus Valley Civilization during its Kot Yaman phase (c. 2800–2600 BCE) as well as Bronze Age sites in China (c. 2000–1500 BCE), and Ancient Rome.
Calvin Cordozar Broadus, Jr. (born October 20, 1971), known professionally as Snoop Dogg, is an American rapper and actor from Long Beach, California. His music career began in 1992 when he was discovered by Dr. Dre of N.W.A and, as a result, was prominently featured throughout Dr. Dre's solo debut album, The Chronic (1992). He has since sold over 21 million albums in the United States and 35 million albums worldwide.
Snoop's debut album, Doggystyle, was released in 1993 under Death Row Records, debuting at number one on both the Billboard 200 and Billboard Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts. Selling almost a million copies in the first week of its release, Doggystyle became certified 4× platinum in 1994 and spawned several hit singles, including "What's My Name?" and "Gin & Juice". In 1994, Snoop released a soundtrack on Death Row Records for the short film Murder Was The Case, starring himself. His second album Tha Doggfather (1996), also debuted at number one on both charts with "Snoop's Upside Ya Head", as the lead single. The album was certified double platinum in 1997.

A burglar breaks in and the apartment is damaged when the dog and crook have a tussle.

Genres: Drama, Sport,Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Your hands are warm but your heart's as cold as ice
And I wanna love you but you just want to lie
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Sunday morning, I'm all dressed up
My velvet shoes on and my coffee cup
We walk along through the snow and the muck
As you mind starts to wonder about the way it was
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Your hands are warm but your heart's as cold as ice
And I wanna love you but you just want to lie
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Records playing our favorite tune
I lean over towards you as you howl at the moon
Tell me darling am I speaking too soon
Why do you always cry instead of telling the truth
Hoo Hoo Tell me the truth
Hoo Hoo Tell me the truth
Hoo Hoo Tell me the truth
'cause crocodile tears is all I'm getting from you
Hoo Hoo tell me the truth
Crocodile tears is all I'm getting from you
Crocodile tears is all I'm getting from you
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Your hands are warm but your heart's as cold as ice
And I wanna love you but you just want to lie
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Your hands are warm but your heart's as cold as ice
And I wanna love you but you just want to lie
Oh you've got a button that'll make you cry
Oh you've got a button that will make you cry
