Every day when I get home from work, I feel so frustrated, the boss is a jerk. So, I grabbed my sticks and go out to the shed and I banged on the drum like it was the boss' head. I don't want to work; I just want to bang on the drum all day.
From The Card Cheat by the Clash. There’s something about the gusto in their delivery:
“From the Hundred Year War to the Crimea With a lance and a musket and a Roman spear To all of the men who have stood with no fear In the service of the King”
"Dead Man Fall" - "Bang Your Drum" I've been thinking about the things that are stuck inside in my head and I can’t get them out. I've been waking at four in the morning, I don’t know why I can’t get back to sleep again tonight. Keep banging on Banging on your drum Keep banging on And your day will come Keep banging on Banging on your drum And they will hear you
Some folks are born, silver spoon in hand Lord, don't they help themselves, yeah But when the taxman comes to the door The house look a like a rummage sale
I sit looking round, I look at my face in the mirror. I know I’m worth nothing, without you. In life, One and one don’t make two, one and one make one, and I’m looking for that free ride, for me, I’m looking for you!
I’ll pay any price just to get you, surrender my good life for bad. To find you, I’ll stand naked stoned and be stabbed. I call that a bargain……..
We are the rock and roll saviors Rock and roll we will defend We are the rock and roll saviors And we’re gonna fight For what is right ‘TIL disco is dead!
I just heard this song today and thought about this thread. The great lyrics are pretty much the whole song. So here it is... and have a drink on me, boys!
Whiskey, gin and brandy With a glass, I'm pretty handy I'm tryin' to walk a straight line On sour mash and cheap wine
So, join me for a drink, boys We're gonna make a big noise Don't worry about tomorrow Take it today Forget about the check, we'll get hell to pay Have a drink on me
I'm dizzy, drunk and fighting On tequila, white lightnin' Yeah, my glass is gettin' shorter On whiskey, ice and water
So come on, have a good time And get blinded out of your mind Don't worry about tomorrow Take it today Forget about the check, we'll get hell to pay Have a drink on me
AC/DC Have a Drink On Me Album: Back In Black, 1980
In a nod to the never-ending electoral season: I'm top prime cut of meat, I'm your choice. I want to be elected. I'm your Yankee doodle dandy in a gold rolls Royce. I want to be elected. Kids want a savior; they don't need a fake. I want to be elected..... Alice Cooper
Now, down in Mexico they've got a little place called Boystown Where a man's still a man if you know what I'm talkin' about Well, I walked into the Cadillac bar and I laid my cash down I said "there's plenty more where that came from" and the lights went out
Strapped in the chair of the city gas chamber Why I'm here I can't quite remember The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe I'd have another cigarette but I can't see
They say there's a heaven for those who will wait. Some say it's better but I say it ain't. I'd rather laugh with the sinners than cry with the saints. The sinners are much more fun. Only the good die young.
I like the girls that do drugs (Drugs) Girls with cigarettes in the back of the club (Club) Girls that hate cops and buy guns (Guns) Girls with no buns, girls that's mean just for fun I like girls who make love, but I love girls who like to fuck
Put your hands down my pants, and I’ll bet you feel nuts! Yiu and me baby ain’t nothing but mammals, so let’s do it like they do on the Disxovery channel(get horny now).
Across the plain I see a figure, Every instant growing bigger. Instinct tells me to run away While faith proposes that I wave. He approaches to a rod. I whisper up a prayer to God. The stranger asks me with a grin, "Do you have the time my friend?

Fucking classic man.
But there ain’t no way I’m ever gonna love you.
Now don’t be sad.

Make a joke and I will sigh
And you will laugh and I will cry
Happiness I cannot feel
And love to me is so unreal

I take a look at my enormous penis
And the happy times are comin' to stay...

All I wanted was a Pepsi, just one Pepsi, and she wouldn't give it to me

On the day I was to wed
It is you who I wish to share my body with
She said"
Cat Stevens, "The Boy with the Moon and Star"
"I am just a poor boy but my story's seldom told,
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles, such are promises.
All lies and just til a man hears what he wants to hear and disregards the rest - lie, lie lie. Lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie, lie."
Simon and Garfunkel - "The Boxer"
Now, down in Mexico they've got a little place called Boystown
Where a man's still a man if you know what I'm talkin' about
Well, I walked into the Cadillac bar and I laid my cash down
I said "there's plenty more where that came from" and the lights went out
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe
I'd have another cigarette but I can't see
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
Then it comes to be
That the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
If you don't start drinkin'
I'm gonna leave

Yiu and me baby ain’t nothing but mammals, so let’s do it like they do on the Disxovery channel(get horny now).
I cannot put my finger on it now,
The child is grown,
The dream is gone.
Across the plain I see a figure,
Every instant growing bigger.
Instinct tells me to run away
While faith proposes that I wave.
He approaches to a rod.
I whisper up a prayer to God.
