Lyrics

Creepy Jackalope Eye

It's an elaborate tale so convincingly real

Things can seem so amazing till you get up close

And see they're no big deal

Like the stars in the sky and 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

Staring you down

Creepy jackalope eye

Many things in this life ain't what they appear

Yeah I look like a hare, but if you stop and you stare

I'm more like a deer

I got a jackalope face

I'm a jackalope guy

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 about Adam and Eve?

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

In a jackalope space

On a jackalope high

Staring you down

Creepy jackalope

Staring you down

Creepy jackalope

Staring you down

Creepy jackalope eye

Freaky jackalope eye

Creepy jackalope eye

Creepy jackalope eye
