Covered As: Tom Sawyer by Deadsy
Tom Sawyer by Deadsy
Tom Sawyer by Mindless Self Indulgence
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
The energy you trade
He gets right on to
The friction of the day

The unique growling sound heard in the song came from Lee's fiddling with his Oberheim synthesizer.

"what you say about his company is what you say about society" That vocal hook is just really catchy and sticks in my mind.
