21st Century Tom Sawyer


21st Century, 21st Century.

Tom Sawyer, what would you do,

With your backyard razor wire,

Social media on fire?


Tom Sawyer, are you the same,

When adventure's stone dead,

Traffic noise in your head?


21st Century, 21st Century.

Tom Sawyer, cu cu cachoo,

Would you tell it like it is,

To the porn star [poisoned] kids?


Tom Sawyer, nobody's fool,

Bullshit for a dream,

No one hears you scream.


21st Century, 21st Century.

Mark Twain is sanitized.

They fill his books with lies.

Double think dumb down domain,

Reality slides down the drain.


21st Century, 21st Century.

Tom Sawyer, would you lose your edge,

With the Uzi, and the Glock,

Making heroes on your block?


Tom Sawyer, are you all alone.

Concrete jungle city scopes,

Technicolor dream escapes?


21st Century, 21st Century.

Tom Sawyer, who is your friend,

Locked down in detention,

Killed by good intentions?


Tom Sawyer, you can touch the sky,

With Psycho Pharma friemds,

To take you 'round the bends.


21st Century, 21st Century.

Mark Twain is sanitized.

They fill his books with lies.

Double think dumb down domain,

Reality slides down the drain.


Where could you play.., Fall and decay..,  What would you say.., Taken away..,

Who would you slay.., dream disarray.., How would you pay.., ruthless display.., 


The truth is homogenized,

A manufactured pack of lies.

Fragile mind can't take the strain.

Reality slides down the drain.


21st Century, 21st Century.


Where could you play.., Fall and decay..,  What would you say.., Taken away..,

Who would you slay.., dream disarray.., How would you pay.., ruthless display..,

What would you say to US now?
