A modern day warrior
Mean, mean stride
Today's Tom Sawyer

Mean, 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 river

What 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 wide

Today'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


What you say about his company
Is what you say about society

Catch the witness, 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
