It's so easy to start so long ago when I think about where I've been

And when I consider the lessons I've learned I should travel back again and again

Chorus

But I'm under a different director and the set has completely changed

And the original cast of characters has been totally re-arranged

Should I spend some more time on production....can I think of a better way

I'm just playing the part of Tommy in an old and familiar play

I'm a modestly educated man in desire and in degree

And I honestly do the best I can by my friends and my family

I should travel to the mountains in the early fall....I should carefully examine my life

I should listen to the wisdom of the very small....I should spend some more time with my wife

Chorus

But I'm under a different director and the set has completely changed

And the original cast of characters has been totally re-arranged

Should I spend some more time on production....can I think of a better way

I'm just playing the part of Tommy in an old and familiar play
