Sisyphus Went on Strike

Sisyphus Went on Strike


Your boulder sounds thunder

Your brow sends the rain

Lightning in your brain can’t be restrained


Been shoving for eons

My body so sore

I resolve that the rock won't roll no more


Your boulder sounds thunder


I'm dreaming of Elysian plains. I'm pausing

I'm calling out to Tantalus and Atlas

I’m channeling the lyre of Orpheus

I’m calling all mortals alike

Say, Sisyphus went on strike


Gods forced you to labor

Gods fated you fail

Grow productivity; no avail


Mortals, now, I implore you

Hermes seals my invite

Folx of the underworld, unite


Gods forced you to labor
