The Little Drummer Boy Songtext
Come they told me
Pa rum pum pum pum
A new born king to see
Pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the king
Pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Shall I play for him
Pa rum pum pum pum
On my drum
Mary nodded
Pa rum pum pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa rum pum pum pum
I played some latin stuff
Pa rum pum pum pum
And then I cut into some rhythm and blues
early motown, that kinda thing
The joint was jumpin′ man
It really went off, I was a hit
Mary said, "Christ! This kid's really good.
Does he have management?
He really should.
He′ll be the next big thing
If he plays his cards right."
Then Joseph made some calls
and I was whisked off to the big smoke
to play for this guy
He said, "Kid, I'm seeing something special in you.
Sign on page two."
Then I started playing in pubs
Supporting bigger acts in clubs
I started touring all the regional spots
Tickets were selling just like
hot hot hot
hot hot hot
hot hot hot ... cakes
My CD went gold
They bought me a car
I was a star
I was higher than a kite
A different woman every night
I started dabbling in hallucinogens
And holding parties at my mansion
Indoor pool birdie num num
I had reached the top number one
Me and my drum
Everybody wanted a piece of me
My face was splashed across the press and TV
I put on weight and lost my boyish good looks
Lost all my friends and turned to pills and drink
Started some fights got locked up
I checked into rehab
Got some help
Cleaned myself up
Then I hosted a variety show
Every saturday night at the Channel Nine studio
With a pink ostrich and a head on a stick
From time to time I got to play the drums
With world class acts
Like Nathan Cavaleri
Then I hosted Dancing with the Stars
I've come come along way
since that gig in the sta... ble
Pa rum pum pum pum
A new born king to see
Pa rum pum pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa rum pum pum pum
To lay before the king
Pa rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
Rum pum pum pum
