Searching For This Thing

While hunting for the lost goblet

I mean searching for this groovy grail thing

I was slashing a holy terror trail

Through the brush

Whistling a very hip and solid tune

Well I cut a path and went

Snaking through the trees

I joined some sunning reptiles

On the rock

I was seeking to dig

The infinite wisdon

That flowed from this

Way out and shining cup

And the animals sing

Sing sing sing

And the trees swing

And sway in the breeze

I've been

Wailing stomping swinging

And searching for this thing

Across ten cent streams

And fifty dollar seas

I was a driven cat

Searching for this mug

Other chalices had never been enough

Oh cup, lay it down

And I'll pick it up

Well I left my path

And went looking for a shortcut

I mean I jumped off the trail

Searching for that grail

Seeking ths goblet

I've traveled all my life

And I wouldn't stop

Until I drank it's wine

Well I found that goblet

Sitting on a rock

I grabbed it fast

And drank in every drop

But no tin tankard

Could show me where it's at

After all I'd seen

So I followed my footsteps back

Back through the granite fields

And fallen trees

Back across ice and iron

And the mineral seas

Back through the hills

Of carbon and line

Around the sphere

Solid magentic on time
