Tommy Lyrics

Tommy took me out to eat

But I had no interest in what he was serving

Coffee cups and drawn out lists

Of his band's most treasured, long worn out, accomplishments

Tommy's gonna change but he don't have a plan

Says the woman across from him brings him a chance

But I'm tired of holding candles in my hand

For a boy who doesn't wanna be a man

Shopping at the general store

For some specific thing to inspire his repertoire

His new albums on the low

But those hotter babes, I heard he let them hear it

Tommy's gonna change but he don't have a plan

Says the woman across from him brings him a chance

But I'm tired of holding candles in my hand

For a boy who doesn't wanna be a man

Ooh, ooh, ooh

Oh I taught him

I tried to teach him good

All the lessons that I thought he'd know or at least I thought he should

But it's clear he isn't learning like he could

Because Tommy never tries

No, Tommy never tries

Oh he never tries as hard as he should

Tommy's gonna change but he don't have a plan

Says the woman across from him brings him a chance

But I'm tired of holding candles in my hand

For a boy who doesn't wanna

No this boy who's never gonna be
