Biography:
Racoon is a Dutch pop-rock band founded in 1997 in Goes, Zeeland. Bart van der Weide (vocals) and Dennis Huige (guitar) were fed up with the sound of their hardcore rockband Vic'tem and decided to go acoustic. Their first writings resulted in a song called Rapid Eye Movement. For their first release, a demo called "It's an Ice Cream Day", Stefan de Kroon (bass) and Paul Bukkens (drums) completed the band's line-up.
The band made a breakthrough appearance at the 1999 Noorderslagfestival in Groningen, resulting in lots of record deal offers.

Well Tommy was always different

Wouldn’t hang around in bars, didn’t care for fancy cars

Some people would try to hurt him
Bb C D C
Let’s give the boy another scar, or rip that cotton skirt he loves

Yeah Tommy was always different

If you called the boy a fool, he’d just throw a smile at you

And one day there’s no Tommy

They hadn’t seen the boy in days

“Who cares” is what they’d say

His car, it stood abandoned

Close to where they found his skirt

And later Tommy in the dirt
