|   I don't want to work
  I want to bang on the drum all day
  I don't want to play
  I just want to bang on the drum all day
  
  Ever since I was a tiny boy
  I don't want no candy
  I don't need no toy
  I took a stick and an old coffee can
  I bang on that thing 'til I got
  Blisters on my hand because
  
  When I get older they think I'm a fool
  The teacher told me I should stay after school
  She caught me pounding on the desk with my hands
  But my licks was so hot
  I made the teacher wanna dance
  And that's why
  
  Listen to this
  Every day when I get home from work
  I feel so frustrated
  The boss is a jerk
  And I get my sticks and go out to the shed
  And I pound on that drum like it was the boss's head
  Because
  
  I can bang that drum
  Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?
  I can do this all day |
