The Yeti

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Standing waist high in snow What brought me here, I do not know Sky is filled with starry scenes Of heroes and their greatest deeds Satellites move 'cross the sky And every year, they multiply Father bear is sound asleep And will be so for several weeks [Verse 2] Across the plain, I see a figure Every instant growing bigger Instinct tells me run away While faith proposes that I wave He approaches to a rod I whisper up a prayer to God Stranger asks me with a grin "Do you have the time, my friend?" [Chorus] Hima-, Himalaya Is my old time stomping ground (Oh yes, time is of the essence) Mani-, Manitoba Better snows, I've never found (Oh yes, time is of the essence) Yeah [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] The author looms above his page And thinks it strange that at his age He cannot find the proper words To describe his only world One would think that in a life Where no two snowflakes are alike One would have a brilliant rhyme For each and every bit of time [Chorus] Hima-, Himalaya Is my old time stomping ground (Oh yes, time is of the essence) Mani-, Manitoba Better snows, I've never found (Oh yes, time is of the essence) Yeah [Instrumental Outro] [Guitar Solo]
