| Lyrics: | [Bonus track]
[Rush cover]
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
And 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 eyes 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.
And 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 skies 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. |
