Todd Rundgren

Bang The Drum All Day

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

I don't want to work

I want to bang on the drum all day

Yes, I do

I don't want to play

I just want to bang on the drum all day

That's right

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

I don't want to work

I want to bang on the drum all day

Hey, why not?

I don't want to play

I just want to bang on the drum all day

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

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 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

I can bang that drum

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

I don't want to work

I want to bang on the drum all day

Hey, you wanna take a bang at it?

I don't want to play

I just want to bang on the drum all day

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

I can do this all day
