TOM SAWYER by rush

VERSE

A modern-day warrior
Mean mean stride,
Todays tom sawyer
Mean mean pride.

Though his mind is not for rent,
Dont put him down as arrogant.
His reserve, a quiet defense,
Riding out the days events.
The river

PRE-CHORUS

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.

CHORUS

The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his eyes are wide.

VERSE

Todays tom sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the space he invades
He gets by on you.

GUITAR SOLO

VERSE

No, his mind is not for rent
To any God or government.
Always hopeful, yet discontent,
He knows changes arent permanent,
But change is.

PRE-CHORUS

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.

CHORUS

The world is, the world is,
Love and life are deep,
Maybe as his skies are wide.

VERSE

Exit the warrior,
Todays tom sawyer,
He gets high on you,
And the energy you trade,
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
