Hello it's Tom
And I'm the one
Who never came back home
Yeah I'm the son
Of pain and retribution
So far away
Sent away from home
Far from Earth I stray
Far from Earth I roam
And I do say
I do miss the sunlight
And we all know it's true
I blame it all on you
Guess who it is
It's corporal Tom
Yeah I'm the one
Who held the gun up against my forehead
Oh my name is Cpl. Tom
HEY
Oh I never saw the light that passed before my eyes
And the wonders of my last few years of high school
Now as I keep looking back at memories caught in the past
I realize I really loved her so
GO
I never really knew her little boyfriend
I knew that he was toast
When I kicked his ass outside the football field
He said Tommy why'd you do it
I replied
I need her the most
They carried me off the plane in a coffin on the Fourth of July
I looked at all my friends and my family
Oh why oh why
My dad
My poor dad bible in hand looking at the sky
My mom
My poor mom fell on her knees
And she began to cry he's home
My boy's home
Look he's home
He came home
Well he promised me so long ago and finally he's home
Look at me mom I'm home
I don't know what I did that for but amen
Amen amen amen
I aint a f*cking corporal no more amen
I'm simply an angel named Tom
