Lyrics
Jesus came from Jupiter with a smile on his face
He invited us all to spend a year in outer space
So we called up Richard Branson to dust off the Virgin Galactic
And tripped ourselves on out into the light fantastic
Unrepentant and brave, and with a determined grin
We drove ourselves from bondage to unearthly sin
We’ll be coming back for you someday
Hercules came to Hamilton and took a look around
He found some land on the mountain and thought he’d settle down
He lit a bright fire in the factories by the lake
In his mind, he thought these were the candles on the cake
He thought about Olympus, that place from which he came
And realized he preferred it here where no one knew his name
They’ll be coming back for him someday
They’ll be coming back for him someday
Every day we wake up is stranger than the last
Lurch toward the future while we exhume the past
We can’t keep our good memories of historic celebrities
We can’t have our Pudding Pops and our Bill Cosbys
Jesus came back for Hercules and brought the mighty Thor
Then they took the Rainbow Bridge up up and away from shore
We watched them fly away with electrifying speed
They collided with destiny and satisfied every need
They’ll be coming back for you someday
They’ll be coming back for you someday
They'll be coming back, they’ll be coming back
Coming back, they’ll be coming back
Coming back for you someday
They'll be coming back, they’ll be coming back
Coming back, they’ll be coming back
Coming back for you someday
