Steve Earle — 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
