"T Shirt" is the title track of Tym's 2002 album. It is sung from the perspective of a guy who loutishly claims to have seen and done it all and is now quite bored...and more than a little condescending.
lyrics
You want to fly this big balloon
Trampoline across a great lagoon
You want to gather all the moons
Sorry, sonny, been there, done it
Tell ya, honey, been there, done it
Forget it, people, been there, done it
You want to eat the sweetest pie
You want to buy up all the skies
Bullwhip DeSade and make him cry
I can't relate, I been there, done it
Once then twice, I been there, done it, got the T-Shirt
Been there, done it, got the T-Shirt
You want to close the biggest deal
You want the world to bring you meals
You'd shoot Achilles in the heel
Sorry, sonny, been there, done it
Tell ya, honey, been there, done it
Made the money, been there, done it, got the T-Shirt
I can't relate, I been there, done it
Once or twice, I been there, done it
Win at dice, I been there, done and got the T-Shirt
