T Total Tommy
Intro: (2X)
To the sad-eyed misinterpreted hung-up child of clay
So the drunken poets pretty words didn t help you find your way
Was it your mistake for thinkin he was born before his time
Or was it his for thinkin he might save you with his flimsy rhyme
T Total Tommy took a toke of tea, black cats backin up a big oak tree
Tick tocks tickin out a tune on time, last words lookin for a line to rhyme
Saw fishs swimmin in the sea-saw-sea but me well I m only lookin
I see so many with no place tonight their sleepy heads to lay
With pen in hand I take a stand I got nothin deep to say
Some words are better left to whisper only to the wind
Some men kill with bullets Lord others use a pen
Sidewalks singin of a troubled time, small talks marchin to a nursery rhyme
Day trippers trippin on a mornin high stop watch watchin for a chance to die
Bad dogs barkin up an empty tree but me well I m only cryin
