Sisyphus peered into the mist
A stone's throw from the precipice
paused
Did he jump or did he fall as
he gazed into the maw
of the morning mist
Did he raise both fists and say
To hell with this
and just let the rock roll
Let it roll
let it crash down low
There's a house down there
but I lost it long ago
Let it roll
let it crash down low
See my house down there
but I lost it long ago
Well I let the rock roll on
down to the town below
We had a house down there
but I lost it long ago
Lost it long ago
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
I'm letting it roll away
It's got nothing to do with fate
And everything to do with you
I'd rather fail like a mortal than
flail like a god
I'm a lightning rod
History forgets the moderates
For those who sit
recalcitrant and taciturn
You know I'd rather turn and burn
than scale this edifice yeah
Where's my accomplice
So take my hand
we'll do more than stand
Take my hand
we'll claim this land
Take my hand
and we'll let the rock roll
Let it roll
let it crash down low
There's a house down there
but I lost it long ago
Let it roll
let it crash down low
See my house down there
but I lost it long ago
Lost it long ago
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
Na-na-na-na-na-na-na
I'm letting it roll away
It's got nothing to do with fate
And everything to do with
Sisyphus peered into the mist
A stone's throw from the precipice
paused
