My Drum
Finding Release: Drumming Away Frustration
Lyrics
When I feel the aggravation
Feeling irritated or annoyed
When I feel the old frustration
Experiencing past frustrations
I go into my room and hit my drum
Seeking solace or release by playing drums in his room
(Hit it!)
An exclamation prompting action to hit the drum
When I feel the time approaching
Sensing a significant moment approaching
Deep inside a big explosion
Feeling intense emotions or pressure building up
I pick up my sticks and hit my drum
Taking up drumsticks to play the drums
(Kick it!)
An encouragement to play the drum with energy
I don't need to tranquilizers
Expressing self-reliance, not needing medication
(No, oh yeah)
An emphatic denial of needing tranquilizers
Or running down to Dr. Myzer's
Avoiding going to a doctor for help
(Yeah, oh no)
An expression of avoiding something unwanted
If I'm sick it's cause I missed my drum
Attributing illness to missing playing the drum
(Yeah)
An affirmation of the previous statement
When I lay me down to sleep
Preparing for sleep
(Oh yeah, huh, come on)
Expressing a desire or preference
There's one thing I wish to keep
A specific wish before sleeping
(Oh yeah, huh, come on)
Reiteration of the wish
Keep within my reach
Wanting to keep the drums close by
My set of drums
Desire to have easy access to the drum set
(Oh yeah, huh, come on)
An enthusiastic expression
