Вступление
[Intro]
N.C.
Let there be drums!
N.C.
Ladies and gentlemen, behind me are drumms and percussion
N.C.
With the help of these men I shall give you the history of the drum in 2 minutes, starting now!
[Verse 1]
Ooh, when Kunte Kinte leapt on the boat
He said "how long will we be afloat?
"Is that long? - I'm gonna bring along my drums."
Percussion grew on his plantation,
Paradiddled across the nation,
The honkies, they loved it, they were having fun.
[Pre-chorus]
They had been trying for years to improvise,
But it's hard to get a solo on a Gaelic lullaby,
[Chorus]
You can eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
Buddy Rich and Louis Belson
N.C.
Rock 'n' Roll, they just want you to hit 'em hard!
[Link]
N.C.
Moronic, isn't it?
N.C.
Now, where were we? - Ah yes!
[Verse 2]
The Jazzeroonies came along,
They didn't even need a song,
This was bebop that was pre-pop from hell's way
They said bebop was fooling round,
Hey cools the rule, let's pull it down,
And tuned percussion are having a say.
[Pre-Chorus]
Latin Americana, Giacana Carmen Miranda,
Let's have a samba mamba, "Hey man, mine's a pina colamda!"
[Chorus]
Eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
Buddy Rich and Louis Belson
N.C.
Rock and Roll, we just want to hit it hard!
[Middle 8]
Now, when these drummers take their seat
They played with heads and hands and feet
They played with nose and fingers and
They played upon their Slingerlands.
Rock and roll was never quick, and some say that they are thick,
Talk to them about technique, they say "I hit it with a stick!"
[Chorus]
Eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
Buddy Rich and Louis Belson
N.C.
Rock and Roll, we just want to hit it hard!
[Outro]
N.C.
Eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
N.C.
Eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
N.C.
Eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
N.C.
NO SYN DRUMS!
