There's a mysterious animal I'm lookin' for

They call it the jackalope

It's got the body of a jackrabbit

And the antlers of an antelope

Some say they're fast, some say they're slow

I've heard they're big, I've heard they're small

Seems like no one can ever agree

It's almost like they don't exist at all

Ooooh Ooooh

It's almost like they don't exist at all

They're only seen between midnight and two

On leap years, beneath a blue moon

When it's hot on the tundra and snowin' in the desert

On the thirty-first of June

Well I've seen em in books, and taxidermy shops

I've seen em hangin' on the wall

But I ain't never seen one in the living light of day

It's almost like they don't exist at all (Chorus)

So when you're searchin' for the truth

And you're at the end of your rope

You might find you don't need no proof

To believe in the thing that gives you hope

And for me, that's the jackalope (Chorus)
