Bigfoot

Driving late one night in my car
I hadn't gone very far
A bigfoot jumped right in front of me
Those big eyes were all I could see

He was big and bushy and that's not all
Had no neck and was ten foot tall
Turned and jumped in one leap
Into the woods dark and deep

Flashing lights appear my rearview mirror
It seems a state trooper is also here
I said what I saw was very un-nerving
That's the reason why I was swerving

The trooper looked at me and shook his head
Then I heard the words I've come to dread
"Maybe bigfoot can post your bail"
"And get your drunk ass out of jail"
