Tommy:
I'm free--I'm free
And freedom tastes of reality
I'm free--I'm free
And I'm waiting for you to follow me

If I told you what it takes
To reach the highest high
You'd laugh and say
"Nothing's that simple."
But you've been told many times before
Messiah's pointed to the door
And no one had the guts
To leave the temple!

I'm free--I'm free
And freedom tastes of reality
I'm free--I'm free
And I'm waiting for you to follow me

Chorus:
How can we follow?
How can we follow?

Tommy:
Come to this house
Be one of the comfortable people
Come to this house
We're drinking all night
Never sleeping.

Milkman come in!
And you baker.
Little old lady welcome
And you shoemaker.
Come to this house!
Into this house.

Come to this house
Be one of us.
Make this your house
Be one of us.

You can help
To collect some more in.
Young and old people
Let's get them all in!

Come to this house!
Into this house.

Ask along that man
Who's wearing a carnation.
Bring every single person
From Victoria Station.
Go into that hospital
Bring the nurses and patients.
Everyone go home
And fetch their relations.

Come to this house
Be one of the comfortable people.
Lovely bright home,
Drinking all night
Never sleeping.

We need more room.
Build an extension.
A colourful palace.
Spare no expense!

Welcome to this house,
Be one of us.
Come into this house,
Be one of us.
Come to our house,
Come to this house!

Uncle Ernie:
I'm your Uncle Ernie
And I welcome you
To Tommy's Holiday Camp!
The camp with a difference
Never mind the weather
When you come to Tommy's
The holiday's forever!

Camp with a difference
Never mind the weather
When you come to Tommy's
The holiday's forever!
Welcome!!!

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 ear plugs,
Put on your eye shades
You know where to put the cork!

Hey, you gettin' drunk
So sorry, I got you sussed.
Hey, you smokin' mother nature
This is a bust.
Hey, old hung up 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!

Chorus:
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.

Chorus:
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!
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 mountain.
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.
