[Intro]
The modern with the warrior
The mean with the stride
The Tom with the Sawyer
And the mean, mean, mean, mean pride

[Verse 1]
And 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!

[Chorus]
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the mist, mist, catch the myth, myth
Cast the mystery, catch the drift, drift

[Refrain]
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies arе wide

[Bridge]
The Tom with the Sawyеr
With the eye on the you
The space he invades
He gets by, by, by, by
[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
What you say about his company
Is what you say about society
Catch the witness, catch the wit, wit
Cast the spirit, catch the spit, spit

[Refrain]
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep
Maybe as his skies are wide

[Outro]
Exit the warrior
The Tom with the Sawyer
The eye on the you, energy trade
Right on to the friction of the day, day, day, day...
