In Search Of
Dan Newberry was a well-respected CPA
Dan Newberry had a rather sizable 401K
But Dan Newberry left it all behind one day
And set off in search of Bigfoot
Said goodbye to a perfectly acceptable life
Left a note for his perfectly acceptable wife
Maxed out his cards at the outdoor store
And set off in search of Bigfoot
Looking for something beyond reason
Hunting the unlikely out of season
Deep within the forest of intractable facts
Lives something that leaves irrational tracks
Dan Newberry doesn’t believe there’s nothing left to see
Dan Newberry is a student of cryptozoology
There’s Dan Newberry halfway up a tree
Night-vision scoping for Bigfoot
Now he’s scanning the banks near the salmon run
Stalking the magical with a tranquilizer gun
Never too far from where the wild things are
When you’re in search of Bigfoot
Looking for something beyond reason
Hunting the unlikely out of season
Deep within the forest of intractable facts
Lives something that leaves irrational tracks
A twig snaps and Dan spins around
and pressed into the muddy ground
a perfect five-toed size eighteen
A shadow folds into the green
Better luck next time, Dan
Would you even acknowledge if it passed you by
the uncomfortable mysteries at the corner of your eye
Do you look for faith in proof or proof in faith
What are you in search of
