My skin is stretched so very tight
My bottom’s open wide
And I’m pounded, hard and fast
In the bright lights of the night
I’m owned by only one man
But I feel the sticks of many
Those players get paid and glorified
But for me? Not a penny
You might think my life a hard one
My career’s a lot of work
My job has plenty of downsides, sure
But now, let’s hear the perks
When not in use, I just hang out
With all my closest friends
Some specialize in oral work
Or take fingers end to end
I practice every afternoon
And game time’s Friday night
If you find yourself in experienced hands
Being a drum is quite the delight
