A modern day warrior |
|
Mean, mean stride |
|
Today's Tom |
|
SawyerMean, mean pride |
|
Though his mind is not for rent |
|
Don't put him down as arrogant |
|
His reserve, a quiet defense |
|
Riding out the day's events |
|
The riverWhat you say about his company |
|
Is what you say about society |
|
Catch the mist, catch the myth |
|
Catch the mystery, catch the drift |
|
The world is, the world is |
|
Love and life are deep |
|
Maybe as his skies |
|
Are wideToday's |
|
Tom Sawyer |
|
He gets high on you |
|
And the space he invades |
|
He gets by on you |
|
No, his mind is not for rent |
|
To any god or government |
|
Always hopeful, yet discontent |
|
He knows changes aren't permanent |
|
But change is |
|
And what you say about his company |
|
Is what you say about society |
|
Catch the witless, catch the wit |
|
Catch the spirit, catch the spit |
|
The world is, the world is |
|
Love and life are deep |
|
Maybe as his eyes are wide |
|
Exit the warrior, today's |
|
Tom Sawyer |
|
He gets high on you |
|
And the energy you trade |
|
He gets right on to the friction of the day |
