Лапу подаёт (Чебурашка)
Всем привет и добрый день из Сингапура. Сегодя, я слушаю музыку дома.
I was listening to the Чебурашка song and the last two words in the lyrics were "лапу подаёт!" What does it mean?
Спасибо. До свидания.Here's the complete sentence: "При Встрече сразу лапу подаёт!"

лапа = paw; подавать (давать) = to give
This song line refers to the command "Дай лапу!" (= the "give paw" command) that is why there is the word "дворняжка" (=mongrel).
Я был когда-то странной
Игрушкой безымянной,
К которой в магазине
Никто не подойдет.
Теперь я Чебурашка,
Мне каждая дворняжка
При встрече сразу
Лапу подает!
So, it means that he is now a kind of living being (not an unwanted and unnamed toy) and another creatures treat him as equal and greet him.
