| Because the Origami didn’t work | |
| We gave you dancing lessons | |
| Because the dancing lessons made you bored | |
| We bought you a guitar | |
| Because you said it made your fingers sore | |
| We found you a pony | |
| Because the pony broke your leg and ran away | |
| We got you drums | |
| But the drums annoyed our neighbours so | |
| We gave you cooking lessons | |
| And the cooking lessons made you fat | |
| We bought you running shoes | |
| If you hear this | |
| please | |
| We love you Tommy | |
| We know it never was | |
| about Origami | |
| Because you took the shoes and ran away | |
| We gave them your description | |
| Now we haven’t heard a thing in weeks | |
| Because we don’t know where you are | |
| We’re putting out this song | |
| Because we think that you might hear | |
| And know where you belong | |
| So what did we do wrong? | |
| If you hear this | |
| please | |
| we love you Tommy | |
| Please come home we’ve | |
| left your room | |
| Exactly | |
| Exactly | |
| And if you ever hear this song | |
| Know we send our love | |
| Take your origami skills | |
| And make a paper dove | |
| Send a message home | |
| We promise not to teach you | |
| We don’t care what you’ve done | |
| We hope that this will reach you.. | |
| If you hear this, | |
| please | |
| We love you Tommy | |
| We won’t ask you | |
| anything | |
| We won’t be angry |
| Because the Origami didn' t work | |
| We gave you dancing lessons | |
