Steve Earle - Creepy Jackalope Eye lyrics

An elaborate tale So convincingly real Things can seem so amazing 'til you get up close And see they're no big deal Like the stars in the sky Or the one on the stage Just a big ball of gas And a regular guy Fresh out of minimum wage In a jackalope space On a jackalope high I'm staring you down Creepy jackalope eye Many things in this life Are not what they appear Yeah i look like a hare But if you stop and you stare I'm related to a deer I got a jackalope face I'm a jackalope guy And i'm staring you down Creepy jackalope eye Is it so hard to imagine Is it so hard to believe Something so outrageous Something so far fetched Well how 'bout adam and eve? I know you gotta have faith I know the need to hope But the truth is always in place It's right in front of my face The mighty jackalope (yeah) In a jackalope space On a jackalope high I'm staring you down Creepy jackalope And i'm staring down Creepy jackalope And i'm staring you down Creepy jackalope eye Freaky jackalope eye Creepy jackalope eye Creepy jackalope eye
