lyrics

Boomerang Boy
© Eva Moon

I say goodbye to my only child
Don’t worry, mama, he said with a smile
He walk away. I wipe a tear.
I shut the door and give a mighty cheer

We did our job. Our family it is blessed
Now it’s my turn to enjoy an empty nest
The boy left home. Off to be a man
Three months later and he’s back where he began

Boomerang Boy, Boomerang Boy
Fly away but he do not stay
Boomerang Boy, Boomerang Boy
Ought to roam, but he come back home

Ain’t got no money and he got a student loan
Girls want to call him, but we cut off his cell phone
He like to party, but the money all been spent
Living large is easy when you don’t pay no rent

We used to have quiet. Now I hear the X-box
Can’t see the floor through piles of dirty socks
Once I could find me a snack or beverage
Now here I stand and stare at an empty fridge.

Boomerang boy…

What for dinner, mama? Hope there’s enough for more
Love your home cooking and my friends are at the door
Always wash and clean the house, run the vacuum ‘cross the floor
But don’t you start too early, cause I was up ‘til four

Boomerang boy…

Time to go cuz you all grown
Make it soon cuz I need your room
Change the lock now you on your own
