Tommy

Hey, there, Tommy
Do you got a prayer for me
Smoke, bells, and mysteries
Should I take your tales
Or the truth that's plain to see
And what do you have to say
To the young man seeking answers
Will you offer him a word
Or will you just fade away

Hey, hey, Tommy
All those things should never have come to be
Say your pleadings
Funny some things how they just don't seem to change
And what do you have to give
To the young man seeking saviors
Will you shield him from the dark
Or will you just turn out the light

And if all the saints return
What'll be there left of me to find
And if heaven and earth collide
All I know is the Devil's on his way

Hey, hey, Tommy
You know the shepherds may kiss your ring
But all those secrets
There's no clean hands
When you know you know everything
And what are you gonna do
When they ask you for forgiveness
Will you stand and tell the truth
Or will you just close your eyes

And if all the saints return
What'll be there left of you to find
And if heaven and earth collide
All I know is the Devil knows your name
