Tommy: Welcome to the Camp,
I guess you all know why we´re here.
My name is Tommy
and I became aware this year
If you want to follow me,
you´ve got to play pinball.
And put in your earplugs
put on your eyeshades
you know where to put the cork
Hey you getting drunk, so sorry!
I´ve got you sussed.
Hey you smoking Mother Nature!
This is a bust!
Hey hung up old Mr. Normal,
Don´t try to gain my trust!
´Cause you ain´t gonna follow me any of those ways
Although you think you must
Guests:
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
Never did and never will
We´re not gonna take it
Gonna break it, gonna shake it,
let´s forget it better still
Tommy: Now you can´t hear me,
your ears are truly sealed.
You can´t speak either,
your mouth is filled.
You can´t see nothing,
and pinball completes the scene.
Here comes Uncle Ernie to guide you to
Your very own machine.
Guests:
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
We´re not gonna take it
Never did and never will
Don´t want no religion
And as far as we can tell
We ain´t gonna take you
Never did and never will
We´re not gonna take you
We forsake you
Gonna rape you
Let´s forget you better still.
Tommy:
See me.
Feel me.
Touch me.
Heal me.
Listening to you,
I get the music.
Gazing at you,
I get the heat.
Following you,
I climb the mountains.
I get excitement at your feet.
Right behind you,
I see the millions.
On you,
I see the glory.
From you,
I get opinions.
From you,
I get the story.
Listening to you,
I get the music.
Gazing at you,
I get the heat.
Following you,
I climb the mountains.
I get excitement at your feet.
Right behind you,
I see the millions.
On you,
I see the glory.
From you,
I get opinions.
From you,

Listening to you,

Gazing at you,

Following you,
I climb the mountains.
I get excitement at your feet.
