Comeback Kid Lyrics

Sisyphus and his stone

I am the dog and the bone

Why can't I pick up the phone

Why must I explain being alone

Though I'm the first to admit

I know nothing at all

I've been hauling this stone

And you've not asked me once

Why I wrote what I wrote

I can't shake the weight of the world

But I can hold it

It's hanging by a thread

And that thread is you

Earth turned its back to the sun

Here comes the prodigal son

You said you thought I was the one

You said you thought I was the one

Used to call me the comeback kid

I would run with my face to the wind

But I did you no good

Doing what no man would

Used to call me the come back kid

Used to call me the come back kid

Now that the wait has passed

Why don't you come back kid
