[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]
C Am Dm G
Ooh, when Kunte Kinte leapt on the boat
C Am Dm G
He said "how long will we be afloat?
C/Bb Am Dm/F G C
"Is that long? - I'm gonna bring along my drums."
C Am Dm G
Percussion grew on his plantation,
C Am Dm G
Paradiddled across the nation,
C/Bb Am Dm/F G C
The honkies, they loved it, they were having fun.

[Pre-chorus]
G C
They had been trying for years to improvise,
D G7
But it's hard to get a solo on a Gaelic lullaby,

[Chorus]
C Am
You can eat your heart out Sandy Nelson,
Em F
Buddy Rich and Louis Belson
C F G C 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]
C Am Dm G
The Jazzeroonies came along,
C Am Dm G
They didn't even need a song,
C/Bb Am G C
This was bebop that was pre-pop from hell's way
C Am Dm G
They said bebop was fooling round,
C Am Dm G
Hey cools the rule, let's pull it down,
C/Bb Am G C
And tuned percussion are having a say.
