Two-Toed Tom Songtext
von Olivier Derivière

Two-toed-tom, two-toed Tom

Angry clouds roll on the far horizon (two-toed tom)
Sick green sky and tornados flyin′ (two-toed tom)
How much longer until the river's risin′? (Two-toed tom)
Birds fall silent, and the critters are hidin' (two-toed tom)
When mucky swamps and dusty lands collidin'

Flood stirs up what′s long forgotten
Twisted things and lonesome dreams
Flood stirs up what′s long forgotten
Churned up for all to see

Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom hunts when the river's risin′
Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom's got nothin′ inside him
Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two Toed Tom eats to stop the achin'


(Two-toed tom) the storm passed on, but the river′s ragin' (two-toed tom)
Long days spent just contemplating (two-toed Tom)
What will be when you are sinkin' (two-toed tom)
Pulled down by your secret sinin′ (two-toed tom)
Under waters deep and unforgivin′ (two-toed tom)
The past made clear there's no denyin′ (two-toed tom)

Flood stirs up what's long forgotten
Twisted things and lonesome dreams
Flood stirs up what′s long forgotten
'Cause two-toed Tom′s a comin'

Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom hunts when the river's risin′
Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Cold of blood and always hungerin′ (two-toed tom)

A house, a boat, and a church are just meals
For Tom, they say for Tom, they say for Tom
But to Tom, to Tom it's all the same and eating well
Patience, patience, patience is all it takes is all-all-all it takes

Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom hunts when the river′s rising
Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom's got nothing inside him
Two-toed Tom, two-toed Tom
Two-toed Tom eats to stop the aching
Tom!
