Lyrics
Drum Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It was your eyes that gave you up through that stupid disguise
You tryin' to hide behind your drink and you almost slipped by
I see you there,sophisticated, ignoring the beat
Mouth might be closed, but listen baby, your heart, it is screaming
You're one of us
One of those beautiful fools, you are
You're one of us
You were born in this song, so you should live in it
Live in a drum, whoa
You'll never be in it alone
If you live in a drum, whoa
Right now, you'd already be home
Live on, live on
The drum life never gets old
Live on, live on
The drum life keeps going on
It was a lie when they told you you were stuck here forever
They're all alone, the music's begging to bring us together
You've been away and now you won't dance
It's the only way back to your homeland
You're one of us
One of those beautiful fools, you are
You're one of us
You were born in this song, so you should live in it
Live in a drum, whoa
You'll never be in it alone
If you live in a drum, whoa
Right now, you'd already be home
Live on, live on
The drum life never gets old
Live on, live on
The drum life keeps going on
James Flaunteroy:
I live my life on the inside of a drum, I love it, love it, love it, love it
Beautiful music when we play don't you wanna touch it, touch it, touch it, touch it
And it's not hard living inside of a drum, it's nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
Let's live our lives on the inside of a drum, ay, ay, ay
You're one of us
One of those beautiful fools, you are
You're one of us
You were born in this song, so you should live in it
Live in a drum, whoa
You'll never be in it alone
If you live in a drum, whoa
Right now, you'd already be home
Live on, live on
The drum life never gets old
Live on, live on
The drum life keeps going on
