lyrics

Eight Animal Omelette

He was climbing with some friends up in the Teton Range
The Backcountry is no joke and the weather can suddenly change
Cornice broke off down he went dragging their food & friends with him
Ice axes in the snow the rope was getting pretty thin

His friends struggled to hold on from the ice ledge above
The man cut his rope a sacrifice of love
As he fell he saw a vision of a wonderous feast
A giant omellete made of eight beasts

It was an Eight Animal Omelette - I just cannot wait
- Eight Animal Omelette - Oh how I anticipate
- Eight Animal Omelette - I long to masticate
- Eight Animal Omelette - I won’t hesitate

He woke up at the bottom of a dark cravass
The storm raged above he knew he was surely lost
When you got nothing, you got nothing to lose
So dragged that food pack along to just fight those blues

Thinking of his hungry friends he found that he could move
He crawled and he crawled he had something to prove
Sliding down the glacier on the food pack
He dreamed what they’d eat when he made it back

- Eight Animal Omelette - I just cannot wait
- Eight Animal Omelette - Oh how I anticipate
- Eight Animal Omelette - I long to masticate
- Eight Animal Omelette - I won’t hesitate

As the hours went by night came to land
Still he pushed on pulling hand over hand
As the sun came up in the valley below he saw their tent

He knew they were hungry so he picked ingredients as he went

He snared a marmot and milked a mountain goat
Caught a fish with his hands and lured a frog with his throat
The smell of something wonderful roused them from bed
They were happy he was alive and happy to be fed

- Eight Animal Omelette - Venison Jerky
- Eight Animal Omelette - Wild turkey
- Eight Animal Omelette - Marmot Snout
- Eight Animal Omelette - Brook Trout
- Eight Animal Omelette - Fresh Goat Cheese
- Eight Animal Omelette - Honey From Honey Bees
- Eight Animal Omelette - Powdered Chicken Eggs
- Eight Animal Omelette - Two Frog Legs
