A Monday warrior
A modern day warrior
A modern-day worrywart
A modern-day warrior
A mundane warrior
A modern day warrior
Although his mind is not for rent
Don't put down his surrogate
He's hopelessly quite content
Writing down the day's events
"The River".
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.
Always hope for your discontent
No changes are permanent, no changes...
Always hopeful yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent, but change is...
Always hope for your discotheque
No changes are permanent, but change is
Always hopeful yet discontent
He knows changes aren't permanent, but change is...
And the space he invades, he could spy on you.
And the space he invades, he gets by on you.
And the space invaders get by on you.
And the space he invades, he gets by on you.
Catch the Ritz!
Catch the mist.
Catch the spit.
Catch the mist.
Exit the warrior,
Today's Tom Soy
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
He gets high on you.
He gets by on you.
He gets right on to the fridge another day
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
He gets right on to the fringes of ur.
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
He gets right on to the virgin of the day.
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
He gets right onto the fringes of Ur.
He gets right on to the friction of the day.
Ur is an ancient city in Mesopotamia.
He knows changes are permanent
Butt changes!
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is!
He knows changes aren't permanent
Bart changes!
He knows changes aren't permanent
But change is.
His wife is not for rent,
because he uses Efferdent
Though his mind is not for rent,
Don't put him down as arrogant
Is it ever quite the fence
Lighting out the day's events
No reaper
His reserve, a quiet defense
Riding out the day's events
The river.
Is it the worry of today's Tom Sawyer
Exit the warrior
Today's Tom Sawyer
Made me cry
Mean, mean pride
Maybe as his eyes are wide
Maybe as his skies are wide
Mean, mean bride
Mean, mean pride
Mean, mean guy
Mean, mean pride
No worries, no worries
The world is, the world is
The Spacey Invaders get by on you
And the space he invades, he gets by on you.
The space invader gets by on you
The space he invades gets by on you
The space invaders get high on you.
The space he invades, he gets by on you.

Loved by life, indeed.
The world is, the world is
Love and life are deep.
Though his mind is not for rent by any god or government
Though his mind is not for rent don't put him down as arrogant

Today's Tom Sawyer needs me, he cried
Today's Tom Sawyer, mean, mean pride.
Today's Tom Sawyer, mean mean bride.
Today's Tom Sawyer, mean mean pride.
What you say about his company is what you say about designer jeans.
What you say about his company is what you say about society.
What you say about his company is what you say about the soy bean
What you say about his company is what you say about society.
What you say about his company is what you say about your Sawyer D
What you say about his company is what you say about society.
When the Space Invader gets his eye on you
Today's Tom Sawyer, he gets high on you
