Verse 1:
It was your eyes that gave you up through that stupid disguise
You tryin' to hide behind your drink and you almost slipped by
I see you there,sophisticated, ignoring the beat
Mouth might be closed, but listen baby, your heart, it is screaming
Bridge:
You're one of us
One of those beautiful fools, you are
You're one of us
You were born in this song, so you should live in it
Chorus:
Live in a drum, whoa
You'll never be in it alone
If you live in a drum, whoa
Right now, you'd already be home
Live on, live on
The drum life never gets old
Live on, live on
The drum life keeps going on
Verse 2:
It was a lie when they told you you were stuck here forever
They're all alone, the music's begging to bring us together
You've been away and now you won't dance
It's the only way back to your homeland
Bridge
Chorus
Verse 3 (James Flaunteroy):
I live my life on the inside of a drum, I love it, love it, love it, love it
Beautiful music when we play don't you wanna touch it, touch it, touch it, touch it
And it's not hard living inside of a drum, it's nothing, nothing, nothing, nothing
Let's live our lives on the inside of a drum, ay, ay, ay
Bridge
Chorus
