- Tom Sawyer is a song recorded by the Canadian prog-rock band Rush. Despite their reputation for liberalism and thinking, Tom Sawyer is their most famous and truthy song. It's chock full of Colbert references: "A modern day warrior / Mean mean stride / Today's Tom Sawyer / Mean, mean, pride." Here's another: "Today's Tom Sawyer / He gets high on you / In the space he invades / He gets by on you." Even this line: "No his mind is not for rent / To any god or government." That's right. Dr. Colbert doesn't rent. It's a sale or no deal.

- Thomas "Tom" Sawyer is the title character of the Mark Twain novel Adventures of Tom Sawyer. He appears in three other novels by Twain: Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Tom Sawyer Abroad, and Tom Sawyer, Detective.

- Tom Sawyer is a song on Rock Band made famous by Rush. It is one of the harder songs in the game, placed in 8th tier for full band (7th on the Wii version). It is best known for its unique drum beat (it is placed in the final tier for drums, and the 7th on the Wii), which involves tricky patterns of bass pedals, including 32nd note 'double pedals', and a drum solo later on in the song. On the guitar, it is supposedly quite hard (8th tier, 6th on the Wii) despite that the only complex part is a 6 second hammer-on during the solo.
